Tickets are open for Mamamoo's first online concert 'WAW'.

A teaser image was released while tickets for the '2021 Mamamoo online concert 'WAW' were opened at 3 pm on August 17th.

In the released teaser image, Mamamoo is dignified on the track. In particular, the styling of the stripe pattern reminds of the appearance of 'Mr. Ambiguous' at the beginning of their debut, and Mamamoo's unwavering initial intentions and aspirations are felt.

Mamamoo's concert is the first in two years and one month since '4season F/W' in Daegu' held in July 2019, and will be held as an online concert in consideration of the spread of COVID19.

In order to vividly reproduce the sense of realism that can be felt offline, and at the same time to appease fans, they plan to complete a richer stage by utilizing various props and unique productions that take full advantage of the advantages of online concerts.

This concert is a part of the '2021 Where Are We (WAW)' project, and the stage is set in the footsteps of Mamamoo's seven years of non-stop running from their debut days to the present after a long journey.

In addition to Mamamoo's hit songs, 'Happier than Ever', which was included as a hidden track in the last mini-album 'WAW', and a new song will be revealed for the first time to show their refreshing side.

Mamamoo, who has sold out all the seats every time, is expected to demonstrate the potential of 'Trust Bo Mamamoo (Mamamoo Concert)' with an all-time-level stage that consolidates their undisputed stage dominance, excellent singing ability, excellent teamwork, and unwavering love for their fans 'moomoo'.

Meanwhile, Mamamoo's first online concert 'WAW' will be held on August 28th.

Hyun Bin is finally addressing the long-standing "ddongcha" (poop car) theory surrounding his character from My Name is Kim Sam-soon—and he's not holding back!

In an interview on the 19th with Star News, the beloved actor confessed, "I was wrong," responding to the reevaluation of his iconic role as Hyun Jin-heon from the 2005 hit drama. The "ddongcha" theory has been a subject of online debate for years, with many viewers critiquing Hyun Jin-heon’s character as overly arrogant and entitled.

Hyun Bin, who first rose to fame in My Name is Kim Sam-soon, took the time to reflect on the character that made him a household name. He shared, “I was just following the script; there were no personal opinions added to the character of Hyun Jin-heon. At that time, I knew Hyun Jin-heon was portrayed as a ‘bad boy,’ and the way it was expressed was different from today’s standards.”

With My Name is Kim Sam-soon now being re-released as part of Wavve's "New Classic" project, fans are revisiting the 2005 drama, and the character of Hyun Jin-heon is under fresh scrutiny. Director Kim Yun-cheol even admitted that the "prince on a white horse" and "bad boy" tropes that once worked in 2005 don’t quite match today's sensibilities, leading to edits in the 2024 version.

Hyun Bin humbly acknowledged his gratitude for his successful career and hit works, saying, "It’s wonderful and I am grateful to have so many hit works. I’ve been fortunate to work with amazing writers, directors, and actors. Thanks to them, I’ve received a lot of attention and love." He also shared a sense of humility, noting, “But I never know when that luck will come again."

Despite the dramatic shift in perspective on his character, Hyun Bin’s charm and dedication remain strong. Fans are eager to see him in his upcoming film Harbin (directed by Woo Min-ho), set to be released on the 24th.
