Get ready for a seismic shift in the K-pop landscape as MC Mong takes the reins as executive producer for Big Planet Made's newest sensation, BADVILLAIN.

In a thrilling announcement on the 3rd, Big Planet Made Entertainment revealed, "Under the moniker 'Villain36,' MC Mong has assumed the role of executive producer for BADVILLAIN. With boundless dedication, MC Mong has crafted Bad Villain into the quintessential 5th generation girl group."

While MC Mong has left an indelible mark in the industry with his solo endeavors and collaborative projects, this marks his inaugural venture into launching a group, placing his name front and center.

A luminary of the 2000s K-pop era, MC Mong's chart-topping hits including "180 Degrees," "Circus," and "A Letter to You" resonate to this day, showcasing his unparalleled knack for creating music that captivates the masses.

The anticipation for what the maestro MC Mong has in store for his girl group knows no bounds.

This bold stance has ignited speculation about his potential to address the longstanding issues within the K-pop sphere.

The buzz surrounding BADVILLAIN is palpable. Despite their debut single slated for release on the 3rd at 6 PM, the group has already garnered attention with an offer for a debut showcase in the United States.

Moreover, the performance music video for BADVILLAIN's electrifying track "Hurricane," dropped on the 5th of last month, is on the cusp of reaching a staggering 3 million views.

Stay tuned as MC Mong and BADVILLAIN prepare to shake up the industry like never before!

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
