Actors Ji Soo and Shin Seung Ho are making headlines after a video of their visit to a club in Manila surfaced, dated December 10, 2023.

The clip, which gained attention on TikTok in January 2024, has sparked discussions among Korean audiences.

In the video, Shin Seung Ho is seen without a mask, wearing sunglasses and a cap, while Ji Soo is cautious, keeping his mask on throughout the visit.

The duo's presence caught the eye of many, with Ji Soo even removing his cap to shield his face when he realized people recognized him.

Despite a fan's request for a photo, Ji Soo left quickly after being tapped on the arm by someone who seemed to recognize him.

Contrary to criticism, some netizens defended Ji Soo, pointing out that he had faced public backlash earlier due to accusations of school bullying and sexual assault in March 2021.

His contract with his company was terminated in May 2021, leading to his enlistment in the army later that year.

"They hate bullies yet turned out to be the biggest bullies, ?."

"Let them be. All these artists should really sue each & every single one of the 'fans.'"

"Are young men not allowed to go out and have fun? Kpop and KDrama fans are worse than the haters."

"Why is going to a club a big sin for actors and actresses? Fans don't own their lives."

"To all the delulu people/fans out there, Jisoo and his friends are very much welcome to roam around and have fun here in our country or elsewhere. Btw, your cancel-culture is disgusting!"

Super Junior’s Choi Siwon is taking on a completely new and shocking role in the upcoming film "Lobby"—and he’s already apologizing for it!

On March 4, the production team of "Lobby" held a press conference at Lotte Cinema Konkuk University in Seoul’s Jayang-dong.

Director Ha Jung Woo attended the event alongside cast members Kim Eui Sung, Kang Hae Lim, Lee Dong Hwi, Park Byung Eun, Kang Mal Geum, Choi Siwon, Cha Joo Young, and Kwak Sun Young.

In "Lobby," Choi Siwon plays Ma Tae Soo, a national actor who gets caught in major scandals and tries to use his money to buy back his lost popularity.

Talking about his character, Choi Siwon shared, “Ma Tae Soo is a romanticist who lives in his own world. He’s like a deer with the suppressed rage of a tiger.” His words left many curious about what kind of performance he would deliver.

He continued, “I did my best to bring director Ha Jung Woo’s vision to life. While acting, I even had moments of self-reflection.” Then, with a smile, he added, “I’m debating whether to invite my parents to the premiere. Since my character is very romantic in love… I apologize in advance.”

Choi Siwon’s character is also the ex-boyfriend of Cha Joo Young’s character, and he had high praise for her acting.

“While working with Cha Joo Young, I was amazed at how great she was at reacting and absorbing the scene. She pays attention to every detail, and I was truly touched by her performance.”

Meanwhile, "Lobby" is set to premiere in theaters on April 2. Fans are already excited to see Choi Siwon in a role unlike any other.
