Ahn Bo Hyun, the actor we all know and love, recently revealed a surprising fear that has fans chuckling - balloons!

On March 25th, 'Marie Claire Korea' uploaded a video on their YouTube channel. The video, titled 'Who is the character Ahn Bo Hyun wishes to be the happiest?', gave fans a glimpse into Ahn Bo Hyun's thoughts.

In the video, Ahn Bo Hyun confessed, "I'm not scared of anything. Not ghosts, not even nightmares about scissors. But balloons? They scare me the most." He chuckled nervously before popping a balloon, making fans laugh at his unexpected fear.

The interview was conducted in a unique way - by popping balloons. When asked, 'Who is the character you've played that you wish could be the happiest?', Ahn Bo Hyun gave a thoughtful answer.

He said, "Most of the characters I've portrayed don't have a mother. They've either lost their mothers in an accident or a tragic event. So, it's tough to pick just one."

However, he added, "If I had to choose, I'd pick Lee Soo, the last character I played. Lee Soo may seem like he has everything, but in reality, he craves the love and compassion of a family. Lee Soo has a lot of realizations throughout the story. I hope Jin Lee Soo from 'Chaebol X Detective' could be the happiest."

Meanwhile, Ahn Bo Hyun showcased his action skills in the recently concluded SBS drama 'Chaebol X Detective'.

But it was his fear of popping balloons that stole the show and had fans cooing at his adorable reaction. Ahn Bo Hyun jokingly said to himself, "Can we cut this out? I'm not even scared of throwing punches, why am I so scared of balloons?"

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!
