Kyuhyun, a member of Super Junior, recently talked about what he said about parking fees when he switched from SM Entertainment to Antenna, making things clearer.

Kyuhyun went on "DinDin's Music High" on SBS Power FM radio on January 22 KST and talked about what he meant when he said things about parking fees. He said that he had only jokingly brought up the problem, but it had gotten a lot of attention, so he felt the need to explain.

The subject of "SM parking fees" came up during the show, and Kyuhyun said, "I meant that comment to be funny, but it caused a lot of trouble." I felt it was necessary to explain. In the past, when I had to get somewhere, I used my own car, which wasn't registered with the company.

Because of this, I had to pay for my own parking. "However, the company would pay for these costs through a settlement process," Kyuhyun said.

He then said, "I heard that we were now using credit cards to pay for parking after leaving SM and moving to Antenna."

At first, I thought this was strange, but then I heard that the company rents the building and that all employees, including me, have to pay the parking fees. "I saw that I was wrong about what was going on," Kyuhyun said.

Kyuhyun had earlier raised eyebrows when he appeared on JTBC's "Knowing Bros" on January 20 and joked about being upset that he had to pay separate parking fees after switching to Antenna, saying, "I was told to pay for parking."

It cost me extra to park at SM when I went there to practice with Super Junior.
Kyuhyun talked about how SM reacted to what he said: "They were understandably upset, but they just told me that everyone pays parking fees."This is true for both registered business vehicles and employees who are not registered.

Because of the confusion, we deeply apologized. Kyuhyun said, "I wanted to make this clear for everyone."

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!
