• "We can’t be mothers" — aespa's Karina and Winter's skinny waistlines lead to comedic moment on "The Return of Superman"

    Karina and Winter from the K-pop girl group aespa recently appeared on the popular Korean reality show, “The Return of Superman”.

    The episode, which aired on May 12th, showed the two visiting the home of Jason, also known as Ddongbyul's dad.

    During the episode, Karina and Winter showed their love for Ddongbyul and his family by spending quality time with them. The two even went as far as removing their nail art, to avoid accidentally scratching the baby.

    Jason, who was touched by their actions, called them his “brother-in-law”, showing how much he appreciated their visit. Karina and Winter also had a great time, singing and playing with Ddongbyul, who they called “adorable”.

    As the visit progressed, Winter and Karina were given the task of changing Ddongbyul's diaper. However, the two were shocked and screamed in horror when they saw what was inside the diaper.

    In a moment of humor, Jason joked that changing diapers can help lose weight, causing Karina and Winter to laugh. The two even attempted to wear a baby carrier for Ddongbyul, but their small waistlines prevented them from properly securing the carrier.

    Jason said, “Even when she’s wearing a microphone on her waist, it still turns out like that. Both of you are eliminated. The baby carrier is falling down.” Winter and Karina pretended to cry, saying, “We can’t be mothers.”

    The episode was well-received by viewers, who praised Karina and Winter for their thoughtfulness and caring nature towards Ddongbyul and his family.

    Here are some comments from netizens:

    “Karina and Winter are so sweet and caring, they make great aunties!”

    “I love how they removed their nail art to avoid scratching the baby, so thoughtful!”

    “I’m crying, they are too cute with Ddongbyul!”

    “I can’t stop laughing at Jason’s joke about changing diapers helping to lose weight!”

    “Karina and Winter are both so beautiful inside and out, they are true angels.”

    “I’m not surprised that Winter and Karina couldn’t wear the baby carrier, their waistlines are so tiny!”

  • 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!
