• Actress Lee Yoo Mi Reveals She Auditioned More Than 500 Times Right Before “Squid Game” Exploded In Popularity

    Actress Lee Yoo Mi, who played an active part in the Netflix series "Squid Game" and "All of Us Are Dead", revealed the number of auditions beyond imagination.

    On the 28th of last month, an interview video of actress Lee Yoo Mi was released on the ESQUIRE Korea YouTube Channel.

    The number of auditions she joined before Lee Yoo Mi hit the jackpot with the Netflix series "Squid Game" last year was especially noticeable in the video.

    When the production team asked the total number of auditions, including the movie "Hostage", Lee Yoo Mi said she could not imagine how many times she had auditioned.

    Lee Yoo Mi, who recalled her past saying that she lived really hard, surprised everyone by calmly answering that she seemed to have auditioned about 400-500 times.

    Actress Lee Yoo Mi, who debuted in her 14th year this year, made her name known to the public around the world by appearing in Netflix's most popular series "Squid Game" last year after various works.

    She has established herself as a "mainstream actor" after succeeding in acting as a villain in the recently released Netflix series "All of Us Are Dead".

    It seems that she rose to stardom with one work, but behind the scenes, she was able to succeed because she had the persistence and passion to challenge 500 auditions. 

    Many fans cheered and applauded Lee Yoo Mi, saying, "I hope she will be more successful in the future."

  • Lee Joon’s “not picky eater” promise tested by pig brain, and his face says it all

    Lee Joon found himself in tears while eating pig brain on the latest episode of World Dice Tour 3.

    On the May 17 broadcast of ENA’s World Dice Tour 3, new members Lee Joon, Cha Tae Hyun, and Kim Jong Min joined the popular travel trio “Kwak Ppa Won” (Kwak Tube, Pani Bottle, and Won Ji) for their latest global adventure.

    During the trip, Lee Joon traveled to Romania with Kwak Tube. While exploring local food, the two came across a rare dish even locals rarely eat—pig brain. The taxi driver even warned them it wasn’t something Romanians usually eat!

    At the restaurant, they were served a full-course meal featuring pig brain cooked in different ways. Lee Joon bravely tried the steamed version first. Kwak Tube described it as having a strong smell and a soft, unusual texture.

    The next version was served raw and looked even harder to eat. Though Lee Joon had confidently claimed earlier that he wasn’t a picky eater, he couldn’t hide his reaction. As soon as he put it in his mouth, his eyes teared up.

    Despite cheering from Kwak Tube, Lee Joon couldn’t finish it and ended up spitting it out. “Sorry, people of Romania!” he shouted, making everyone laugh.

    Meanwhile, ENA’s World Dice Tour 3 continues to show exciting and extreme travel adventures with viral travel creators Pani Bottle, Won Ji, and Kwak Tube, now joined by the three well-known stars.
