Fans were surprised to learn that Moonbin of ASTRO previously appeared as a young Kim Bum in "Boys Over Flowers".

Moonbin, who debuted in the music industry in 2016 as a member of the idol group ASTRO, was a child actor on KBS2's "Boys Over Flowers" seven years earlier.

Moonbin displayed his adorable beauty at the time by appearing as the child of Kim Beom, who portrayed So Yi Jeong.

Moonbin, who has had large eyes and fair skin since childhood, continues to captivate women with his strong physique and endearing appearance as an adult.

"Water Bomb Busan 2022" has recently gained momentum. The sculptural abs of Moonbin were enough to make the crowd scream.

Moonbin also performed a fierce choreography by bending his upper body as far back as possible, displaying his incredibly strong and muscular body.

Fans responded enthusiastically to the appearance of Moonbin, who is tall enough to be considered the key part of a coup, with phrases such as "He matured well" and "Baby face and body are completely reversed."

In March, Moonbin returned as a member of ASTRO's unit group Moonbin & Sanha and issued the second mini album "REFUGE."

Lee Kyung Gyu's star-making influence goes beyond Kang Ho Dong, as Hong Jin Kyung shares how he helped her kickstart her career.

On the April 24 episode of KBS 2TV’s Problem Child in House, legendary comedian Lee Kyung Gyu appeared as a guest—and a touching story from the past was revealed.

Hong Jin Kyung surprised everyone when she said, “He’s the teacher for all of us. Personally, he’s the one who helped me debut.” She even pinned a carnation flower on his chest to show her gratitude.

Lee Kyung Gyu smiled and said, “I still remember when Hong Jin Kyung walked up the stairs onto the stage for the first time.”

Hong Jin Kyung then shared her journey to becoming a star. “I joined a supermodel contest, but only the top 3 winners were noticed in broadcasting. I got a special prize, so I had no chance to be on TV."

She continued, "At first, I was just a backup for a show. But somehow, I became a regular the next week. I never knew why."

She added, "I thought the PD gave me a shot. But then one day, I randomly met Kyung Gyu sunbae, and he told me it was actually him who recommended me.”

Kim Sook asked with a smile, “So Kyung Gyu sunbae said nice things about you to the PD?”

Lee Kyung Gyu playfully replied, “Don’t say it in such a childish way,” making everyone laugh.

He then explained more seriously, “The show was Scoop TV Entertainment, and I was pretty much the main MC. When Jin Kyung showed up, I saw her determination and passion."

He added, "While others didn’t seem serious, she really stood out. I told the PD, ‘She seems unique. Why not keep her on the show?’”

Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “So if the main MC said that, doesn’t that mean you basically got her in?”

That made Lee Kyung Gyu happy. He grinned and replied, “Exactly! You speak well. Be like him!”

He added, “After that, Jin Kyung’s career took off. She started doing shows with Lee Young Ja and just kept going.”

Fans are now calling Lee Kyung Gyu not only a top MC, but also a quiet star-maker behind the scenes!
