• Netizens Discuss EXO Suho's Controversial "Joke" at "SMTOWN Live 2022 : SMCU Express"

    EXO's Suho has become a hot topic because of his joke.

    On August 21, a critical post about Suho began trending on Nate's community board Pann under the title, "Yesterday, Suho made a joke that was controversial".

    During "SMTOWN Live 2022 : SMCU Express" in Suwon. During a talk segment on stage, when Suho was greeting fans, he allegedly said, "It's such a relief that it's not raining today, everyone you know that right? It's my powerㅋㅋㅋㅋ I'm so sorry for some time ago".

    The netizen who wrote the post stated, "The recent heavy rain caused a lot of damage to people's lives, and he's joking here that it's because of his skill. His words went too far".

    Suho appears to be alluding to his "super power" in the EXO universe, which is water, and "apologizing" for triggering the record rainfall that flooded multiple South Korean areas.

    Some Netizens didn't think Suho's joke was very funny and said:

    Because of the flooding, some people died. Why is he acting so stupid?

    For the leader of a group, he says some dumb things.

    Is he nuts?

    When did it become a trend to make jokes about natural disasters? There was so much damage to people's lives that it's not funny.

    What a relief that he doesn't matter anymore; people even died there.

    I'm an EXO-L, and he's not talking about the big flood. He's just talking about the rain we've been getting lately. But it's true that he was careless with his words given the time of year.

    However, others said:

    He does not mean the floods. He only mentions that it rained the day before.

    All these folks who weren't even present are misinterpreting the situation. The only point he wishes to make is that it's fortunate it didn't rain on the day of the concert.

    Don't hate him for no good reason. It's easy to make something too big out of a few simple words. All of the fans there laughed and said it was good that it didn't rain.

    Everyone makes a big deal out of everything.

    What are your thoughts on the post about Suho?

  • Lee Kyung Gyu secretly helped Hong Jin Kyung debut on TV and she didn’t even know for years

    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!
