• “My Demon” receives positive reviews from foreign media “Song Kang and Kim Yoo Jung’s fantasy rom-com is all things right”

    SBS’s new Friday-Saturday drama “My Demon” continues to receive positive reviews from foreign media On Nov 26th (local time), the foreign media outlet “PINKVILLA” reviewed episodes 1 and 2 of “My Demon“.

    They stated, “Song Kang and Kim Yoo Jung’s fantasy rom-com is cheeky, beautiful and all things right.“ “My Demon” is a fantasy romantic comedy drama about the contract marriage between Do Do-hee (Kim Yoo Jung), the devilish heiress of a conglomerate, and Jung Gu-won (Song Kang), a demon who temporarily loses his powers.

    Since its premiere on Nov 24th, it has gained significant popularity not only domestically but also internationally.

    PINKVILLA praised, “Song Kang fits right into the role of a devilishly handsome demon, who looks out only for himself.” Regarding Kim Yoo Jung (born in 1999), who played the role of the 28-year-old woman Do Do-hee, they said, “Kim Yoo Jung’s transformation into adult roles has been an anticipated change as she slips into a 28-year-old woman’s character being fairly younger in real life.” PINKVILLA hoped, “As major events have unfolded right in the first week, we hope that the show is not dragged with filler episodes towards the second half.”

    They assessed, “The contrast between the worlds of the two leads is made very obvious and intriguing. As typical head dip and light skinship scenes take the course, the heart-fluttering building-up of the chemistry between the two is enough to keep you tuned in.“ Meanwhile, according to Nielsen Korea, the average viewership ratings for episodes 1 and 2 of “My Demon” were 4.5% and 3.4%, respectively. “My Demon” is a 16-episode series airing every Friday and Saturday at 10 PM on SBS.

  • Lee Min Ho Shares the Hilarious Story Behind His Famous Baeksang Fall—The One Thing He’ll Never Forget!

    Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

    On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

    The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

    Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

    He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

    Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

    Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

    It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
