• Ahn Bo Hyun Shares Heartfelt Insights on Fan Meeting Tour and Acting Passion — "I'm Living My Dream"

    Prior to his highly anticipated ‘Hello’ fan meeting in Manila, versatile actor Ahn Bo Hyun sat down with the press to discuss his illustrious career.

    Known for his roles in hit dramas like “Military Prosecutor Doberman,” “Yumi’s Cell,” “My Name,“Itaewon Class,” “See You in My 19th Life,” and “Flex X Cop,” Ahn Bo Hyun shared insights into his long-term journey in the entertainment industry.

    When asked about the scorching summer heat in the Philippines, he humorously replied, “Whenever summer arrives, we yearn for winter. But when winter comes, we crave the warmth of summer. Personally, I enjoy beach trips, so I lean towards summer.”

    The host also inquired about Filipino cuisine. Ahn Bo Hyun revealed his preference for diverse flavors, saying, “I’ve discovered some similarities between Filipino and Korean foods during my hotel breakfast. While I haven’t tried everything, the flavors I experienced were absolutely delightful.”

    Reflecting on his fan meeting experience, Ahn Bo Hyun expressed gratitude for the overwhelming support from Filipino fans. “Seeing them in person is truly heartwarming.

    During the interview, Ahn Bo Hyun discussed his growth as an actor. “I’m still evolving. When I take on a role, I don’t assume I’m already good at it. Instead, I embrace the challenge and strive to improve with each project. My age allows me to understand emotions deeply, which enhances my portrayal of characters.”

    He emphasized the importance of maintaining an unwavering mindset. “Never giving up is my initial mindset. Challenges lead to opportunities, and persistence pays off. I wear this ‘initial mindset’ necklace as a reminder,” he revealed, touching the engraved pendant.

    The Manila stop, scheduled for the 25th at the New Frontier Theater, marks the sixth city on Ahn Bo Hyun’s fan meeting tour. Following successful events in Seoul, Hong Kong, Bangkok, Tokyo, and Taipei, he eagerly awaits connecting with fans in the Philippines.

  • Lee Kyung Gyu secretly helped Hong Jin Kyung debut on TV and she didn’t even know for years

    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!
