• 'Queen of Tears' star Park Sung Hoon confesses his worries about taking a break and why he works so hard

    Actor Park Sung Hoon is all about that hustle, with no time for a break.

    Making his debut back in 2008 with a small role in the film "A Frozen Flower," Park Sung Hoon has been steadily climbing the ladder of success, switching between TV dramas and movies.

    He caught everyone's attention with his role in KBS 2TV's "My Only One," then shocked us all as the school bully Jeon Jae Joon in Netflix's "The Glory." Recently, he left a strong impression as the cold-hearted villain Yoon Eun Sung in tvN's hit drama "Queen of Tears."

    Park Sung Hoon is a real workaholic, taking on more than one project every year. Right now, he's busy filming for the much-awaited Netflix's "Squid Game" Season 2 and the movie "Night Heat."

    In a recent chit-chat with MyDaily at BH Entertainment's office in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, Park Sung Hoon had a good laugh about his non-stop work schedule.

    He said, "Sure, the money's nice, but I'm not doing this for the cash. I get antsy when I'm not working. Plus, I don't really have any hobbies, so I don't know how to chill. "'

    He added, "I'm the type who needs to stay focused on something. It gives me a sense of achievement and happiness. Plus, I learn and solve a lot while working, so I just keep going."

    When asked about how he maintains his health with such a hectic schedule, Park shared, "I used to take vitamins, but it's been a while since I last did. I usually hit the gym when I'm not filming."

    He added, "I used to enjoy going to the sauna, but it's been tough to go recently because more people recognize me than I thought. So, I've been unwinding a bit by watching YouTube."

  • IU melts hearts by helping young actress Kim Tae Yeon pick a dress for her first awards show and even goes shopping with her

    IU has once again warmed hearts with her sweet and caring nature — this time by personally helping young actress Kim Tae Yeon get ready for her very first awards show.

    The two actresses both played the same character, Ae Soon, in different stages of life in the Netflix drama "When Life Gives You Tangerines". IU played the adult version while Kim Tae Yeon touched viewers with her emotional performance as young Ae Soon.

    Even though Kim Tae Yeon doesn’t have an agency yet, IU made sure the young star wouldn’t be alone. According to insiders, IU personally visited a dress shop with Kim Tae Yeon to help her pick out a beautiful outfit. She even helped with hair and makeup plans, making sure Tae Yeon could shine at the upcoming 61st Baeksang Arts Awards, where both actresses are nominated.

    Kim Tae Yeon’s mom posted about the moment on Instagram, saying:

    “Tae Yeon met IU unnie and told me to say thank you. Words aren’t enough to express how grateful we are. We were so surprised by her unexpected visit, and her thoughtful care truly touched our hearts. Thank you again to IU for the gift.”

    The post also showed a happy Kim Tae Yeon holding IU’s present and choosing a dress — a moment that melted fans’ hearts.

    IU is well-known in the industry for her generosity and kindness. While filming "You Have Done Well", she reportedly gave thoughtful gifts and created a warm, friendly vibe on set for everyone, from co-stars to staff.

    The drama itself became a big hit, earning praise both in Korea and overseas. IU, Park Bo Gum, Yeom Hye Ran, Choi Dae Hoon, and Kim Tae Yeon all received Baeksang nominations — a huge achievement, especially for the young star.

    Kim Tae Yeon, born in 2011, has been acting since she was little and appeared in dramas like Crash Landing on You, A Dog’s Love Today, and Gyeongseong Creature. But her powerful acting in "When Life Gives You Tangerines" truly made people cry, smile, and remember her name.

    IU didn’t stop at helping Kim Tae Yeon. She also invited fellow cast members Moon So Ri, Park Hae Joon, Ahn Tae Rin, and more to her concert, sending them gifts to show her love and support.

    In an earlier interview, IU talked about giving gifts to so many people. She humbly said,

    “As I do more projects, there are more people I’m thankful for, but it’s not as hard as people think. I just hope the people receiving the gifts feel happy.”

    Talking about the drama, she added,

    “It was such a grand project. Just being part of it was a blessing. It made me think, ‘Ji Eun, you really experienced something amazing.’ I’m grateful I could work with such great people.”

    Once again, IU has proved she’s not just a talented singer and actress — she’s also a true “Good Deed Queen.”
