• "He got a point!" Kang Ki Young talks about working with "The Uncanny Counter" co-star Jo Byung Gyu despite bullying claims

    The second season of The Uncanny Counter is now showing. The show was picked up for a second season because the first one did so well.

    One of the main characters, Jo Byung Gyu, was accused of bullying at school between seasons.

    Jo Byung Gyu has rejected this over and over, but the person who accused him keeps making the same claims. So, the case has not yet come to a good end.

    As the claims keep floating around, his co-star Kang Ki Young was asked what he thought about being in a drama where there was a chance of school violence.

    Kang Ki Young knew just how to answer the hard question.

    "To be honest, I wouldn't have been in the play in the first place if I cared so much about that problem. I watched the first season and liked it, so I was looking forward to the second. When they offered me the part of the bad guy, I only saw it for the drama that it was. I saw the players' chemistry and tried hard not to think about anything else."

    BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
