Because of his friendship with the bride, Jung Hae In was one of the VIP guests at Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin's extraordinary wedding.

The wedding of the century between Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin has been over for a week, but people haven't stopped talking about it.

The wedding attracts a larger guest list than year-end award ceremonies, including Jang Dong Gun, Gong Hyo Jin, Jung Hae In, Ha Ji Won, Yoona… Fans are waiting for the celebs to "release photos" in the huge grand wedding that Asia is anticipating.

Recently, Jung Hae In, Son Ye Jin's co-star in "Something in the Rain", shared his experiences of witnessing the wedding of two prominent actors.

During the March 31 birthday livestream, Jung Hae In quickly claimed, "I just returned from the wedding, and I came to congratulate Hyun Bin sunbaenim and Son Ye Jin sunbaenim's wedding". When fans inquired when they should share images, Jung Hae In gave an answer that left everyone unsatisfied.

"My most current photo? Sorry everyone, I don't think I can reveal it. The image was taken at the super wedding today. I'm so thrilled and I really want to show it to everyone, but I can't because I have to follow the wedding's request." The actor chose to keep it a secret until the end rather than "share photos" for fans to see.

In the popular series "Something in the Rain", Jung Hae In co-stars with "beautiful noona" Son Ye Jin. After the drama ended, the two maintained a close relationship.

Son Ye Jin and Hyun Bin want to make sure that the mega wedding is as safe as possible. Until now, the wedding ceremony's clear photographs have only been revealed in little drops.

Despite the fact that there aren't many high-quality images, the gorgeous fairy-tale moments in the magnificent wedding are enough to get people excited. The wedding of Hyun Bin and Son Ye Jin is certainly the wedding of the century.

The new OTT series Newtopia has faced mixed reactions, with BLACKPINK’s Jisoo's acting and a slow storyline making viewers question if the show can survive.

Released on the 7th, Newtopia on Coupang Play promised to offer something fresh in the K-zombie genre. The drama follows an unlikely couple, Lee Jae-yoon (played by Park Jung Min), a late-blooming soldier, and his girlfriend Kang Young-joo (Jisoo), as they fight to survive in a zombie-infested Seoul.

The mix of zombies and romantic comedy sounded like an interesting twist, but the show hasn’t exactly hit the mark.

Jisoo’s second lead role after Snowdrop in 2021 was highly anticipated. But many fans and critics have been concerned about her acting, especially after she received some backlash for her unclear pronunciation and awkward expressions in her previous project.

Director Yoon Sung-hyun, aware of the concerns, said at the press preview, “Since Jisoo hadn’t acted for a long time after her last project, I was also initially worried, thinking, ‘Will she be okay?’ But Jisoo dedicated herself, doing script readings four days a week. She worked hard, and as a result, I had no doubts or difficulties. By episode 8, you'll feel that only Jisoo could have portrayed Young-joo. She did an amazing job.”

Despite his words of praise, Jisoo’s performance still left fans worried. While she showed some improvement, her portrayal of Young-joo seemed inconsistent, lacking the calmness expected from the character. However, her "girl crush" image, with her background as a "campus goddess," did add some intrigue to her role.

The main issue, however, wasn’t just Jisoo's acting. Newtopia also struggled with its pacing. While other recent hits like Trauma Center or Trigger grab attention right from the start, Newtopia spent too much time in the first episode on Jae-yoon’s military life and Young-joo’s personal struggles, making it feel like a waste of time. The show failed to showcase the humor and zombie elements it promised, leaving many viewers unimpressed.

On top of that, some characters came off as annoying, like Jae-yoon’s colleague, Line Ho (Im Seong Jae), and the "unlikable" senior character Seojin-wook (played by Kang Young Seok). Even Park Jung-min didn’t do much to help the show move along, making the 57-minute episode feel even longer.

Thankfully, the show picked up pace in episode 2, finally diving into the zombie chaos. But will that be enough to save Newtopia? With the first episode still fresh in fans’ minds, the jury’s still out on whether this K-zombie drama can find its footing and deliver the thrills viewers are hoping for.

The remaining six episodes of Newtopia will air every Friday at 8 PM, with one episode released per week. Stay tuned to see if the series can bounce back!
