Positive Reactions:

"This is awesome, but judging by the comments, everyone is making a big deal about it."

"This teaser smells like money to me. I really like the second half's background."

"I feel like every group Bang Sihyuk has made since Bangtan has had a strong otaku vibe to them."

"Since so many people are upset in the comments, it just means that this time they will really hit daebak. I couldn't be more excited about this."

"Huh Yunjin is freaking amazing."

"I liked it a lot though???? The quality is crazy good, and I can't wait to see it."

Negative Reactions:

"I'm still not sure why you guys don't like this video."

"The music in the background is great… In the first scene, I thought it was blood, but I can see how it could look like a Japanese flag… I think they should have started the trailer in Korean instead of Japanese, because starting in Japanese makes them look like a Japanese group."

"I've always liked their music, and I hope they'll stop using Japanese in their teasers. Since they're K-pop stars, why do they speak Japanese? … ㅠㅠ Anyway, I think the song will be good."

"No, but why are the Japanese narration is so weird? I'm not interested in it at all. I'd rather they start with English."

"I wondered why there were so many comments here… I liked the video, but I can see why people might have differing opinions on the narration."

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!
