"Hospital Playlist" has been one of the most popular K-Drama shows over the past few years.

The show has a lot of famous actors and actresses in it, and it has played with viewers' feelings by showing friendship, love, heartbreak, and a lot more.

But Uju, who was played by Kim Joon, the son of Lee Ik Jun, really won the hearts of fans (played by Jo Jung Suk).

Whether he was making his dad fall in love with him, talking about his girlfriend, or just being adorable, the character really won everyone's hearts.

"Summer Strike" is one of the newest K-dramas. It stars Im Siwan (also recognized as Im Si Wan) and Seolhyun from the group AOA.

Based on a webtoon, the story follows Lee Yeo Reum (Seolhyun), who decides to quit her job and moves to a small village after getting rejected and losing her mother. Here, she meets the people who live there, like An Dae Beom (Im Siwan).

Kim Joon is one of the stars, and even though it's only been a year since the last season of Hospital Playlist, netizens are shocked by how much the young actor has changed in his role as Bae Joon.

He will also be in the movie "Switch", and pictures from a recently held press conference shocked people on the Internet.

Lee Woo Joo looks much taller and more grown up in the pictures than he did in the "Hospital Playlist" episodes.

Many people also said that he was much more confident because he gave hearts to the media with pride.

When the pictures came out, netizens couldn't believe how much the young actor had changed. Many people still think of him as the cute Uju, but he is growing up so quickly.

It's not surprising that the young actor has grown and will continue to do so in front of the audience's eyes. Even so, netizens are still shocked by how much the young star has changed.

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!
