• "Buddies are crying rn" — GFRIEND members surprise fans with a heartwarming reunion, showing off their close friendship

    GFriend members have come together again, and fans are overwhelmed with nostalgia for the group's journey and the unforgettable memories they shared.

    On August 5th, Sowon shared a group picture on her Instagram featuring all her former groupmates, showcasing their unbreakable bond. This post instantly stirred up a wave of emotions among fans.

    She later updated her Instagram story with pictures they took at a photo booth after their heartwarming reunion.

    GFriend's journey began in 2015 when they made their debut under Source Music with the hit track, "Glass Bead."

    Unfortunately, in May 2021, GFriend announced their disbandment, leaving many fans disheartened.

    However, this recent post served as a reminder that despite pursuing individual paths, their bond remains strong.

    Fans expressed their hopes of witnessing the members reunite in some form, be it for a special performance or a collaborative song.

    Comments from fans:

    "Buddies are shedding tears rn"

    "It appears the disbandment wasn't due to individual promotions or relationship hiccups, as they are getting together so often."

    "Looking forward to celebrating their 9th debut anniversary!"

    "Wishing them all success in their respective endeavors, and I hope they come together later to release a new song."

    "Seeing the group picture makes me feel like I've time-traveled to the past."

    "Not to say anything bad about Sserafim, but GFriend got the boot because of them. Source wanted the newer type of car. But they forgot what got them to where they are now."

    "Fans who haven't found out that their favorite group doesn't really get along should never forget how lucky they are."

  • 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!
