• "Single's Inferno" Choi Si Hoon Confessed "I fell in love with Free Zia for a while"

    A male actor surprisingly confessed that he actually loved YouTuber Free Zia (Song Ji Ah). 

    As soon as this news was delivered, the comment window went into an uproar.

    On January 21st, a post titled 'Single's Inferno Performer Who Said He Loved Free Zia' was uploaded to the community TheQoo and drew attention. Here was an interview with Newsis of the male performer.

    The main character who confessed that he actually loved Free Zia is actor Choi Si Hoon.

    Choi Si Hoon was unable to form the final couple with Free Zia in "Single's Inferno". Free Zia became the final couple with health trainer Kim Hyun Joong on the program.

    In an interview with Newsis , Choi Si Hoon said , "I fell in love with (Song) Jia for a while. At the time, I thought she really liked me. (To Kim Hyun Joong) I had a lot of time to say, 'Come and talk to me too.' Wouldn't it?" It was the happiest day of my life,” he said.

    He continued, "(Song Ji Ah) has a charm that captivates people. We talked little by little while cooking and lighting a fire, but the trembling was different. When I looked at him from the outside, I thought he was just a pretty and flashy person, but when we talked about it, it was different. Doesn't Jia (Song) call herself 'cute and sexy' to meet her. It's really attractive. It made me fall in love."

  • Hyun Bin Apologizes for the 'Ddongcha' Theory After 20 Years: "I Was Wrong" - Actor Clears the Air About Iconic Role

    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.
