TV personality Jang Seong Gyu suddenly feels embarrassed after receiving continues praise for his acting.

On November 22nd, TV personality Jang Seong Gyu announced his position on the rumors of appearing in the Netflix original 'Hellbound' through his SNS.

He explained, "A lot of people are contacting me saying they watched the drama well. The person who played this role is not me but it's actor Ryu Kyung Soo. He put on really good acting. I'm sorry I am receiving the praise instead."

He has his eyes closed and his head slightly bowed, and he looks just like Jang Seong Gyu, surprising many. The captured scenes from the drama showed how actor Ryu Kyung Soo highly resembled Jang Sung Kyu. Jang Sung Kyu also included screen captures of some of the comments left on online communities who mistakenly thought Jang Sung Kyu was in the drama.

The comments read, "I thought Jang Sung Kyu was a comedian but he's killing it," "I rediscovered Jang Sung Kyu," "Am I the only one who knew that announcer Jang Sung Kyu appeared on 'Hellbound'?" and "I wasn't able to concentrate on the drama."

Meanwhile, 'Hellbound' is a new series directed by Yeon Sang-ho, who hit the jackpot with 'Train to Busan'. It tells the story about otherworldly beings who appear out of nowhere to issue a decree and condemn individuals to hell. These supernatural events cause great mayhem and enable the religious group The New Truth to grow in influence.

Actors Yoo Ah-in, Kim Hyeon-joo, Park Jung-min, Won Jin-ah, Yang Ik-jun, and Ryu Kyung Soo also appear in ther series.

Xiumin’s agency, ONE HUNDRED, has spoken out about his unexpected exclusion from KBS 2TV’s Music Bank.

On March 4, the agency released an official statement, saying, “Xiumin, under INB100, is preparing for his solo comeback with Interview X on March 10, his first in two years and six months."

They added, "We have tried multiple times to reach out to KBS to secure a stage for him, but they have completely ignored us.”

The agency also revealed shocking details, stating, “Recently, KBS unofficially told us that Xiumin cannot appear on Music Bank or any programs where SM Entertainment artists are also performing.”

They continued, “We have repeatedly contacted KBS, asking them to put the artist and his fans first, but they won’t even respond.”

ONE HUNDRED strongly criticized the situation, saying, “As a public broadcast station, KBS should not be making decisions based on a specific company’s stance."

They added, "This is extremely unfair. We have done everything we can to resolve this, and we’re deeply disappointed to have to break this news to fans.”

Despite the setback, the agency reassured fans, promising, “Even if Xiumin can’t appear on KBS, we won’t give up. We’ll find even better opportunities for him to showcase his performances in front of fans.”

Meanwhile, Xiumin, who moved to INB100 (a subsidiary of ONE HUNDRED LABEL) in 2023, is set to release his second mini-album, Interview X, on March 10.

Fans are now waiting to see how this situation unfolds.
