As soon as Netflix's 'Hellbound' was released, it is getting a hot response.

'Hellbound' is based on the webtoon 'Hellbound', which was serialized from August 2019 to September 2020, and director Yeon Sang-ho wrote the story himself.

The work depicts the story of a supernatural phenomenon in which people are sentenced to hell by the messengers of hell that appeared without notice, and the religious organization "The New Truth" takes advantage of this chaos and those who try to uncover the truth of the incident become entangled.

'Hellbound', which depicts a society where rational criticism has disappeared amid fanaticism and hate, is gaining popularity as soon as it was released on November 19th. After 'Squid Game', K-content predicted the global box office success, rising to the top spot on Netflix worldwide within a day of its release.

In particular, the box office speed of 'Hellbound' is faster than that of 'Squid Game', which ranked first in 6 days after its release.

'Hellbound' even scored 100%, a perfect score, in the freshness index, an indicator of critics' evaluation, on Rotten Tomatoes, an American critic site.

In response to such a hot reaction at home and abroad, requests for Season 2 are flooding in from around the world. Those who saw the work commented, "Yoo Ah-in's acting was the best", "This should definitely come out in Season 2", and "I hope Season 2 will be made with the resurrected ones."

Overseas fans also highly praised Yoo Ah-in's performance and strengthened the voice calling for the next Season by saying, "I can't wait for Season 2, please make it soon."

However, in this regard, director Yeon Sang-ho expressed caution through JTBC, saying, "It seems that the story of Season 2 is still premature."

BLACKPINK’s Jisoo shared a surprising story from her trainee days!

On January 29, the latest episode of Dex’s Fridge Interview was released on YouTube. During the chat, Dex asked Jisoo if she ever rebelled or broke the rules as a trainee. She confidently replied, “Not at all. The only rebellion I had as a trainee was eating.”

Dex then jokingly imitated her younger self, saying, “I’m perfect, so why are they telling me not to eat? I’m going to eat tteokbokki!”

Jisoo laughed and admitted, “Actually, I was really chubby back then. They kept telling me to lose weight, but I always said, ‘No, I need to eat. I like myself chubby.’”

She even recalled a moment with YG Entertainment’s founder, Yang Hyun Suk:
“The boss told me to lose weight, and I responded like that. He just walked away, thinking, ‘She’s a weird one.’ I literally said, ‘No! I like myself chubby!’”

Jisoo then revealed that after she debuted, she naturally lost weight. She added, “Later, after I debuted and naturally lost weight, he was like, ‘You didn’t lose weight when I told you to, but now that you debuted, you did.’”

Fans are loving Jisoo’s confidence and honesty! Meanwhile, her full interview on Dex’s Fridge Interview is now available on YouTube.
