Netizens Spark Online Debate Over Knowing Bros' Lee Jin Ho Referring to Jang Won Young as His "Wife"
Jang Won Young, a minor idol, was recently named in JTBC's "Knowing Bros", sparking a heated discussion among netizens.
Members of the group "SEVENTEEN" appeared as guests on the episode of "Knowing Bros" broadcast on the 28th.
On today's program, the participants played a game called "Look at the Monitor", in which they guessed the individual by glancing at the picture.
When Jang Won Young's image showed on the monitor, Lee Sang Min responded promptly, "IVE".
When Judge Shin Dong said, "Oh, who's this?" Lee Sang Min replied, "She's our sister-in-law." Kang Ho Dong requested, "It's been a long time. Send her a video letter," after Lee Jin Ho revealed, "She was my wife in a skit."
Lee Jin Ho then asked, "Honey, how are you?" and asked Park Min Sun, his partner in another comedy, "Mi Dal's mother, how are you?"
However, following the show, some viewers complained on the viewer's bulletin board, writing:
"I don't like what you say to a minor, 'my sister-in-law' and 'honey'" ,
"Do you believe you can say 'my wife' joke forever?"
IU Secretly Watches Her Own Movie in a Theater, Drops Hints About Her Identity, but No One Recognizes Her?!
IU recently revealed that she watched her own concert film in a public theater, but shockingly, no one recognized her—even when she dropped a hint!
On February 27, a new video featuring IU was released, showing her inside a car on her way to Daejeon.
She excitedly shared, “This is a surprise stage greeting for UAENA! I picked this location through a ladder game when I did stage greetings.”
Previously, IU had let fate decide which city she would visit after her stage greetings. She happily said, “There are UAENAs everywhere I go. Wherever I go, it's a flowery path.” The game ultimately led her to Daejeon.
IU originally hoped to explore the city, saying, “I wanted to visit Daejeon's pride, Sung Sim Dang, and walk around, but my team said it wouldn’t be possible. The lines are too long, and it’s freezing outside.” She sighed, adding, “So, things turned out this way.”
Dressed up for the occasion, IU smiled, saying, “I don’t get to meet UAENAs in Daejeon often, so I wanted to make a surprise appearance looking my best.”
She also joked about enjoying surprise events, adding, “As long as Hanteo oppa drives me safely, I’m happy.”
But what really caught fans' attention was IU’s unexpected confession—she had secretly watched her concert film in a theater, but no one noticed her! “No one recognized me at all. There weren’t that many people, and it was a weekday… but still! I even gave a hint!” she said, sounding both amused and surprised.
Later, when IU finally appeared at the theater, her fans were overwhelmed with emotion. Some even burst into tears, prompting her to gently say, “You really didn’t expect me to come, right?”
After wrapping up her stage greeting, IU laughed at herself, saying, “Wait, did I just do a 40-minute one-woman show? I must have talked so much.”
On her way back to Seoul, IU reflected on the day, sharing, “It was so cold today. I shook hands with all the UAENAs. My hands are usually cold, and since the weather was freezing, I think I made a lot of people’s hands cold, too. But after touching so many warm hands, mine became warm, too. I still haven’t washed them.”
