On November 25, the 43rd Blue Dragon Film Awards brought together some of the biggest names in Korean film. It was a memorable event that Kim Hye Soo and Yoo Yeon Seok hosted.

But the ceremony got a lot of attention when the stars who were there became real K-Pop fans. But besides the awards, there were only some great performances.

The first act of the night was by a new girl group named NewJeans. Even though they just started this year, the girls really owned the stage when they sang "Hype Boy" and "Attention."

Even the famous people in the audience couldn't hide their excitement when the performance was so great. IU and Girls' Generation's Yoona were clapping along to the young idols.

Fans were even interested in Tang Wei because it looked like she was filming the performance on her own fancam. But one fan at the ceremony really stood out, and that was actor Go Kyung Pyo.

When it came to NewJeans, the actor wasn't afraid to show how much he loved the idols. He even danced perfectly to "Hype Boy" and couldn't stop cheering for them.

As if that wasn't enough, Go Kyung Pyo was the star of the show when Zico came out for his own performance.

Before going on stage, Zico decided to start in the crowd and moved down the row. He sat next to the actor before going on stage, and it's safe to say that Go Kyung Pyo was having the time of his life.

Even after Zico got on stage, Go Kyung Pyo and the equally famous Song Eun Yi were really living their best lives.

Along with IU, Ong Seong Wu, and many others who showed how much they liked Zico's performance.

Go Kyung Pyo, Song Eun Yi, and Seo Guk In were the last ones to make an impression as the song ended.

Even though award ceremonies can be boring sometimes, the idols really made all the stars who were there feel like fangirls. It's not surprising that Go Kyung Pyo's antics really won over the hearts of netizens.

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!
