Lee Jung Jae, Park Hae Soo, Jung Ho Yeon, and Kim Joo Ryoung of the world-famous blockbuster 'Squid Game' depart for the United States to attend the 28th American Actors Guild Awards (SAG).
 
OSEN said on the afternoon of February 23, Lee Jung Jae, Park Hae Soo, Jung Ho Yeon, Kim Joo Ryoung, and director Hwang Dong Hyuk, the main actors of Netflix's 'Squid Game', will attend the 28th American Actors Guild Awards (SAG) awards ceremony to be held on February 27

Lee Jung Jae departs through Incheon International Airport on a plane that night. He plans to move to the United States in line with the awards ceremony schedule after digesting his overseas schedule first. Jung Ho Yeon, who is already overseas, is planning to move to the United States in consideration of her awards ceremony schedule.

Park Hae Soo is scheduled to board a plane to the United States this weekend, and Kim Joo Ryoung is also leaving for the United States this week. Heo Seong Tae was unfortunately unable to attend due to the scheduled drama schedule.

'Squid Game' is nominated for a total of four categories at the SAG Awards, including the Ensemble Award, the highest award in the TV category, Lee Jung Jae for Best Actor, Jung Ho Yeon for Best Actress, and Stunt Ensemble Award nominations. 

This is the first time in history that a Korean drama has been nominated.

The American Actors Guild Awards is an awards ceremony hosted by the Screen Actors Guild, the world's top actors union. 

The awards are given annually in recognition of their achievements in film and TV fields. At SAG, in 2020, the actors of the movie 'Parasite' received the Ensemble Award for the first time in a non-English-speaking film, and in 2021, Yeo Jeong Yoon won the Best Supporting Actress award for the movie 'Minari'. 

Attention is focused on whether the actors of this year's global hit 'Squid Game' will win the trophy. 

The energetic and fun-loving special unit of SEVENTEEN, BSS (Seungkwan, DK, and Hoshi), is ready to return with a bang! Their second single album, "TELEPARTY," will drop on January 8, and fans can’t wait.

At midnight KST on December 27, Pledis Entertainment shared the exciting teaser for BSS’s comeback through HYBE Labels' YouTube channel and SEVENTEEN’s social media. The trailer, titled "How is your youth?", instantly grabbed attention with its touching and inspiring vibe.

The trailer dives deep into the meaning of youth, opening with the question: "What is youth? Is it simply about being young?" It shows everyday moments from people of all ages and ends with the uplifting answer: "Youth is about enjoying the life you’re living at this very moment."

BSS takes on the role of "Youth Protectors," spreading joy and positivity across generations. In the teaser, they give tired students a break, take on extra work for stressed office workers, and even add some romance for two elderly individuals stuck in routine. Their efforts bring smiles, laughter, and a reminder to embrace life’s little moments.

Fans were also thrilled to see a familiar face in the trailer—actor Moon Sang Hoon, famous for his "Moon Saem" character from the YouTube channel Bba-Doners. His comedic interactions with BSS added even more charm and excitement.

The title of the album, "TELEPARTY," combines "Telepathy" and "Party," representing a celebration that connects everyone in the world. Through this concept, BSS sends the heartwarming message: "If you’re happy in this moment, you are living your youth."

Pledis Entertainment revealed that this album has been in the works since early this year and promises top-quality music. Fans can expect not just great songs but also a lot of energy and joy from this special unit.

Meanwhile, SEVENTEEN has been keeping busy with their SEVENTEEN [RIGHT HERE] WORLD TOUR IN JAPAN, performing ten incredible shows in four domes. They’ll continue their stadium concerts in major cities across Asia in January and February, keeping their momentum strong.

Mark your calendars for January 8 and get ready to party with BSS!
