In K-Pop, the Big 3 companies—SM, YG, and JYP—are known for having idols who are both very talented and good-looking.

These things aren't unique to these companies, but they are known for having a lot of trainees and only letting the best ones make their debuts.

On October 31, Netizens talked about why they did think ASTRO's Cha Eun Woo wasn't picked up by one of the "big three" entertainment agencies, like SM, JYP, or YG Entertainment, despite his stunning looks and body.

On the online community discussion board, a user wrote, "With just his looks and body, he could have easily joined NCT, TREASURE, or Stray Kids, even if he didn't have any talent."

In response, some of the comments from netizens were as follows:

Not because he couldn't go, but because Fantagio took him.

It's like taking someone hostage. Before he realized what was going on, Fantagio was able to convince him and quickly take him in.

If he had gone to SM, he might not have been able to go to college, which would have been terrible. I think that people with their own skills should go to a middle-sized company.

Even actor Won Bin left the company SM.

Even if you say he isn't good at anything, his looks make him a star.

God bless SM, he didn't mess up his face. If he'd gone to SM, he would have done something more to his face for sure.

I can't really think of anybody else besides Suzy and Cha Eun Woo whose looks alone really made a big deal.

I hope Fantagio is nice to Cha Eun Woo. I would treat Cha Eun Woo like my own son if I were the CEO of Fantagio.

Instead of joining the NCT, it would be better for him to go to a middle-sized company.

Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

"It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
