• Netizens call NewJeans Hyein 'the Human Y2K,' saying she looks like an actress from the early 2000s

    Netizens are amazed by Hyein's ability to "travel through time."Netizens talked about the NewJeans member's latest Vlog, which took fans back to the year 2000, on an online platform.

    Netizens couldn't help but notice how well Hyein pulls off the look and feel of the early 2000s.

    They joked that this Vlog "couldn't possibly belong to the year 2023" because it showed Hyein and her grandmother's house, which had a clear feel of Korea in the early 2000s.

    Netizens were interested in Hyein's real eyeglasses, which were worn out from needing them for her vision.

    A few people said that the video quality was so bad that the whole thing looked like a retro throwback.

    The first ad said, "It's almost like finding a self-cam video of an actress from 2002."A lot of responses came in:

    "Our baby god, she's the human Y2K…""She really has that eerie Y2K feel…so strange""Change the ratio to a square and turn the quality into a 480p and you have an actual 2yk video""We need a Haduri font somewhere lol""She looks like a rookie actress from the early 2000s…"

    Someone on the internet made a fake Haduri picture using Hyein's video after reading a comment about Haduri, a Korean photo and video app from the late 1990s that let you take selfies.

    Other people joined in and made changes to her video that made it look like a real self-cam video from an old Korean variety show.
    "Lol……oh my god" "She really fits the part haha""Human Y2K…"
    "Someone needs to cut the ratio lol""Now all she needs is to speak in a Seoul dialect haha""She is sooooooooo hip""I am jealous of the way she looks so good with eyeglasses without rims"

    What do you think?

  • Lee Kyung Gyu secretly helped Hong Jin Kyung debut on TV and she didn’t even know for years

    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!
