The talented LE SSERAFIM member, Kazuha, has been gaining immense popularity among fans due to her captivating beauty and commanding stage presence.

Recently, Kazuha has received high praise from K-netizens for her remarkable progress in learning and using the Korean language since her debut.

At first, Kazuha faced numerous challenges due to the language barrier when she joined LE SSERAFIM as a Japanese starlet.

Additionally, her training period was relatively short, lasting only five months, which made it even more difficult for her to master Korean before the group's official debut.

However, Kazuha has consistently shared her journey towards fluency with fans and actively engages with them in Korean. This has provided her with practical, real-life opportunities to improve her language skills.

Translation: Kazuha's method to memorize practical Korean. 1. Schedule - "Schedule! I have it every day~" 2. To add - "I add salad and yogurt to my meals..." 3. To worry - "I do worry~ because...life is hard."

In her interview, Kazuha was asked about her favorite aspect of her personality. She revealed that externally, it may not be apparent, but internally, she harbors ambitions that go beyond what meets the eye.

To her, "ambition" is a word with positive connotations, allowing her to think about her dreams without being limited by practical constraints.

Since LE SSERAFIM's debut approximately a year and a half ago, K-netizens have noticed a significant improvement in Kazuha's proficiency in the Korean language.

They have showered her with admiration, calling her an inspiration and a true example of a growing idol.

They are excited to see her dancing and live singing skills improve, eagerly anticipating what she will do in the coming year.

K-netizens have been inspired by Kazuha's diligent mindset and maturity, expressing their love and support for her and the entire LE SSERAFIM group.

They are particularly impressed by Kazuha's dedication to improving her Korean despite her short training period.

They believe she has a natural talent for languages and are amazed by her consistent growth. Overall, Kazuha's commitment to learning and using the Korean language has not gone unnoticed by fans and K-netizens alike.

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!
