News from Ten Asia on January 9 said that Ji Chang Wook had recently been offered the major role in the new drama "The Mantis."

"The Mantis is a thriller about a woman who was jailed for being a serial killer a long time ago and what happens when someone copies her killing style and starts a string of murders."

People were interested in the project because it's a remake of the French thriller with the same name that came out on Netflix in December 2017.

Earlier, actress Go Hyun-jung made news when it was said she would play the major female role in the Korean remake of "The Mantis."

Merry Christmas and MegaMonster will work together to make the show.

So far as the plan stands, production will start in earnest this year.

Fans of JTBC's show "Welcome to Samdal-ri" are saying nice things about Ji Chang Wook's performance.

In this show, he plays Yong-pil, the soulmate who comforts Sam-dal (Shin Hye-sun) when she goes through hard times. This character brings both warmth and excitement to the fans.

On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
