Dara of 2NE1 admitted that she is afraid of flying.

Dara and Solbi were special guests on the December 8 episode of SBS PowerFM's "Cultwo Show: Escape at 2 O'Clock." During the "Hajima!" part, Dara talked about how scared she was of flying.

She said, "I've always had a fear of flying ever since I was young." She went on, "Because I flew internationally so often, I must have become famous among flight attendants at some point."

"If Dara is on board, you need to take good care of her," they would probably say. "If the plane shook, I would cry and not be able to eat," she said.

They held my hand, made me ramen, and even gave me toys.

She went on, "They would comfort me like a child, probably thinking about how to make me feel better."

"Do you want a doll?" they would ask me. 'Do you want ramen?' I even talked to the pilot, who told me that there is some rough air but nothing to worry about.

Dara then said, "I didn't know what was wrong until I went to therapy with Dr."

"Hey, Eun Young. It's fun to go to a new place, but you have to say goodbye. I had to leave my family and friends behind when I moved to the Philippines, which is where my fear came from. I have gotten over it a lot lately." said Dara.

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!
