Soyeon, a member of the girl group (G)I-DLE, expressed her thoughts about making and listening to "TOMBOY."

Recently aired MBC's "Radio Star" featured Psy, Sung Si Kyung, Soyeon, and Lee Seung Yoon as guests.

On this day, (G)I-DLE's song "TOMBOY," which is causing a hot response at home and abroad, was mentioned.

When MC Ahn Young Mi asked, "Did you expect this song to go well?" Soyeon began to tell related anecdotes.

Soyeon said, "I played it to Psy once the moment that it's still a draft".

But Psy said, "Oh, that's nice. I think this is going to work."

With Psy's words, Soyeon completed "TOMBOY" and took it to work.

After listening to "TOMBOY," the company told Soyeon, "Soyeon, I don't think you have to listen to other songs. I'll take it up to here," she said with satisfaction.

"TOMBOY", written, composed, and arranged by Soyeon, became the title song of the album "INNEVER DIE".

Soyeon said in a cool way, "If I wasn't confident in myself, I wouldn't have let Psy listen to it," adding, "I wrote the chorus of 'TOMBOY' and thought, 'Am I a genius?'"

Meanwhile, "TOMBOY" has topped many music shows and has also entered the Billboard Global Chart.

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.
