In a recent interview on JTBC's "Newsroom," actor Lee Yoo Mi discussed her career and her latest drama.

After 15 years since her debut, host Kang Ji Young acknowledged Yoo Mi's significant growth and recognition by the public. Yoo Mi made history as the first Korean actress to win an Emmy Award for "Guest Actress" through her role in "Squid Game."

Kang Ji Young expressed amazement at hearing Korean at the award ceremony. Yoo Mi responded by expressing her excitement and feeling a bit dazed. She remembered feeling so good that she couldn't tell if she was walking or standing.

When she saw her name on the award box at home, she became emotional and praised herself for the hard work. Yoo Mi recalled crying alone in that moment.

Moving on to her role in "Strong Woman Gang Nàm-soon," Yoo Mi disclosed that Nam-soon is a pure character that required a lot of consideration. She had many discussions with the director because she had to speak informally on screen.

She believed that if she made a mistake, it would be disliked by the viewers. Yoo Mi tried her best to speak casually to match the innocence of her character and attributed her success in portraying the role to the director's guidance.

(G)I-DLE’s Miyeon made a surprise appearance as a new part-time worker, and her entrance had actor Yoo Seung Ho completely flustered.

On the May 10 episode of JTBC’s Battle! Paeng Bong Paeng Bong, Paeng Hyun Sook’s restaurant faced another loss against Lee Bong Won’s team — their second loss in a row.

As a result, Paeng’s restaurant was at risk of shrinking even more, while Lee Bong Won’s restaurant celebrated by earning a new signboard and even winning a snowflake shaved ice machine, ingredients included.

Just when things were looking bad for Paeng Hyun Sook’s team, Yoo Seung Ho received a mysterious letter. It read, “Don’t tell anyone and open this alone. Please.”

Inside, the message said, “Paeng Restaurant can now add a dessert menu. A new team member is waiting in the kitchen. Please come to Paeng Restaurant quickly.”

Yoo Seung Ho shared, “I felt really happy when I read that note,” and immediately rushed back to the restaurant. But as soon as he saw the new team member’s back, he froze — then stepped backward, shyly retreating.

When asked why, he smiled and confessed, “I liked it so much. I was shy and happy, so I came back out again.”

The new part-timer was revealed to be none other than Miyeon of (G)I-DLE. She came with a fish-shaped bread machine and looked ready to help rescue the struggling restaurant with a brand-new dessert menu.

However, Yoo Seung Ho couldn’t even talk to her properly. Miyeon, noticing his shy behavior, laughed and asked, “Why are you scared of me?”

Yoo Seung Ho replied honestly, “I was all sweaty, and in the evening my beard gets messy. I was in such a terrible state, so I felt embarrassed. But at the same time, I was really happy that someone came to help. Those two feelings came at once.”

Fans are now loving the adorable chemistry between the two stars and are curious to see if Miyeon can turn things around for Team Paeng!
