• Stray Kids' Felix Turns Heads at 2024 MET Gala, Trends Among Locals

    The 2024 Met Gala has seen a new K-Pop idol capturing the attention of locals — Stray Kids' Felix!

    This year, Stray Kids made history by becoming the first K-Pop group to attend the invite-only event. While all members made a strong impression, non-fans, in particular, couldn't help but notice Felix.

    Those unfamiliar with him began referring to him as "the blonde one" or the "blonde boy," thanks to his recognizable platinum blonde locks.

    They couldn't help but praise him, describing him as "beautiful," "handsome," and "hot." Each post gained thousands of likes, reflecting the widespread admiration for Felix.

    With his striking appearance, Felix was "naturally on theme." The 2024 MET Gala theme was "Garden of Time," based on J.G. Ballard's 1962 short story of the same name.

    Fans were ecstatic that Felix was gaining the attention of non-fans as well. They noted that he "always captivates everyone around him."

    As the buzz continues, fans are eagerly awaiting more updates from Felix and are sending their love and support to the star.

  • Seo Ye Ji shocks fans with controversial jokes about her scandals on 'SNL Korea' after 8 years away from variety shows but fans are not buying it

    Seo Ye Ji is facing major backlash after her surprising appearance on SNL Korea 7.

    On April 12, Seo Ye Ji made her long-awaited return to variety shows by guest-starring on Coupang Play's SNL Korea Season 7.

    Before the show started, she made jaws drop by joking, "I'll gaslight the SNL crew and make it fun," referencing her own past controversies.

    During the "Seo Ye GPT" segment, Seo Ye Ji played an AI that helped Kim Won Hoon nail a company presentation. She then made a sharp comment, saying, "The truly embarrassing thing is sitting quietly and being talked about behind your back. I've experienced that a lot," hinting at the criticism she’s faced.

    In the "Eve Hair Salon" skit, Seo Ye Ji acted as a salon director and joked about her past "Kim Ddak Ddak" scandal, where she was accused of controlling her then-boyfriend Kim Jung Hyun. When a character mentioned her stiff neck, she responded, "It's firm," making everyone laugh but also stirring mixed feelings.

    Fans were shocked to see Seo Ye Ji using her past scandals as comedy material, especially since it’s been eight years since her last variety show appearance. Many pointed out that joking about serious accusations like gaslighting and academic fraud might have gone too far.

    The controversy over Seo Ye Ji’s education also came back into the spotlight. She had previously claimed she studied abroad in Spain, but in 2021 it was revealed she never actually attended the university she mentioned.

    Her agency explained she was accepted but didn’t attend because of her career in Korea, but many netizens weren’t convinced.

    On SNL Korea, Seo Ye Ji even played a character who lied about her past to impress a boyfriend, making fans think of her real-life academic background scandal.

    After the episode aired, reactions online exploded. Some comments included, "Falsifying academic background is a crime," "This was too much," "It was funny though," "Let’s forgive it since it’s black comedy," and "Why was Seo Ye Ji the first guest?"

    Seo Ye Ji’s bold jokes have definitely split public opinion, with some calling it brave and others saying it only reopened old wounds.
