Even Neymar Jr. met him!

G-Dragon of BIGBANG hasn't been giving fans as many updates as they'd like lately. At the start of the summer, fans were excited to hear hints about what he was going to do with his songs after his contract with YG Entertainment ended.

Since then, there have been no music updates, but the star was in the latest ad for BMW's luxury SUV, the XM.

Now that G-Dragon went to a soccer game in person, he has set the internet on fire.

As part of Coupang Play's Coupang Play Series, a friendly match between Paris Saint-Germain and the K League club Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors took place on August 3.

Last week, celebrities came to watch and act at the games between Korean teams and the AT Madrid and Manchester City.

The same thing could be said about the match on August 3, since celebrities like Jung Yu Mi and Son Na Eun were there.

Also there was G-Dragon, who quickly became a hot topic online. He was trending at #1 on Naver even though Jisoo of BLACKPINK and star Ahn Bo Hyun just said they were dating.

It seems possible that he went because the Paris Saint-Germain team and Peaceminusone worked together on something special.

G-Dragon shared pictures of custom-made jerseys with the icon flower design for Lee Kang In and Neymar da Silva Santos Jnior (also known as Neymar Jr.) in a post after the game.

The hero even met Neymar Jr. after the game. They took pictures together and talked while Neymar wore the special jersey.

Hyun Bin is finally addressing the long-standing "ddongcha" (poop car) theory surrounding his character from My Name is Kim Sam-soon—and he's not holding back!

In an interview on the 19th with Star News, the beloved actor confessed, "I was wrong," responding to the reevaluation of his iconic role as Hyun Jin-heon from the 2005 hit drama. The "ddongcha" theory has been a subject of online debate for years, with many viewers critiquing Hyun Jin-heon’s character as overly arrogant and entitled.

Hyun Bin, who first rose to fame in My Name is Kim Sam-soon, took the time to reflect on the character that made him a household name. He shared, “I was just following the script; there were no personal opinions added to the character of Hyun Jin-heon. At that time, I knew Hyun Jin-heon was portrayed as a ‘bad boy,’ and the way it was expressed was different from today’s standards.”

With My Name is Kim Sam-soon now being re-released as part of Wavve's "New Classic" project, fans are revisiting the 2005 drama, and the character of Hyun Jin-heon is under fresh scrutiny. Director Kim Yun-cheol even admitted that the "prince on a white horse" and "bad boy" tropes that once worked in 2005 don’t quite match today's sensibilities, leading to edits in the 2024 version.

Hyun Bin humbly acknowledged his gratitude for his successful career and hit works, saying, "It’s wonderful and I am grateful to have so many hit works. I’ve been fortunate to work with amazing writers, directors, and actors. Thanks to them, I’ve received a lot of attention and love." He also shared a sense of humility, noting, “But I never know when that luck will come again."

Despite the dramatic shift in perspective on his character, Hyun Bin’s charm and dedication remain strong. Fans are eager to see him in his upcoming film Harbin (directed by Woo Min-ho), set to be released on the 24th.
