• Jang Young Ran touchingly moved by meeting Park Bo Gum in person: "I'm happy I met him"

    TV star Jang Young Ran has openly declared her love for actor Park Bo Gum.

    On June 1st, Jang Young Ran shared on her social media, "I've been a fan for ages. And yes, I still am," along with several snaps.

    The photos show Jang Young Ran at the VIP preview of the movie 'Wonderland.' She admitted, "I've met many celebs I looked up to during my reporter days, only to be let down. I was scared to meet Park Bo Gum, thinking I might be let down again."

    But after meeting Park Bo Gum, Jang Young Ran couldn't contain her excitement, "He looked like a statue in real life, his personality was precious, and his acting was top-notch. I'm happy I met him. Thanks for the invite."

    She also posted a photo with Park Seul Gi and Nabi, saying, "Yesterday, I wasn't a celeb but a middle-aged lady feeling like a teen again, having a blast with friends."

    An excited Jang Young Ran confessed, "When I was a teen, I used to wonder why older women acted like that. But now that I'm in my 40s, my body may get older, but my heart is still a teen."

    She thanked Park Seul Gi, who helped her get a photo with Park Bo Gum, saying, "Seul Gi pushed me when I was too shy to approach Park Bo Gum. Thanks to her, I got a photo."

    Hong Hyun Hee playfully warned Jang Young Ran, "Husbands are not allowed on this feed," adding, "I've never seen Seul Gi make that face for my love, and even you, sis, never made that face when you were dating my brother."

    Meanwhile, 'Wonderland,' featuring Park Bo Gum, is about reconnecting with lost loved ones through an AI video call service that brings back the deceased. The movie hits the screens on June 5th.

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
