    On May 18th, Kang Seung Yoon took to social media to share a few snaps and a post titled “A Peek into the Life of Sergeant Kang Seung Yoon.”

    The shared photos show Kang Seung Yoon in his military uniform, making memories with his fellow soldiers. He still has his youthful charm, but there’s a newfound maturity about him.

    Kang Seung Yoon also shared a video filmed at the Ministry of National Defense Public Relations. The video shows a confident Kang Seung Yoon in a shooting stance with a rifle. But the highlight was Kang Seung Yoon’s flustered reaction to a child’s unexpected question, which had fans chuckling.

    Fans were quick to shower him with praise, with comments like “Our leader is making us proud everywhere,” “Can’t wait to see you again,” and “Congrats on the early promotion to sergeant.”

    Kang Seung Yoon joined the Army as an active duty soldier on June 20 last year and is currently serving in the 6th Infantry Division.

    In December, he was honored with the Excellent Soldier Award at the 32nd Presidential Award National Classic Reading Contest and the 20th National Youth Reading Appreciation Contest, earning him the title of a special warrior.

    He also made headlines for his charitable acts during his military service, including a donation of 10 million won to the Hope Bridge National Disaster Relief Association in July last year.

  • Kang Ye Won Breaks Down in Tears, Says She’s ‘Destined to Never Marry’—Joins Dating Show for Her 83-Year-Old Father

    Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

    On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

    During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

    She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

    She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

    When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

    "It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

    However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

    She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

    Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
