• Nayeon Reveals: "TWICE is a group with no villains, the reason for our 9-year longevity"

    Nayeon from TWICE opened up about the group's strong bond and their journey together for over nine years.

    On the 20th, a video titled “Juicy Baby Bunny, Irreplaceable Summer Queen, Ending Fairy Nayeonwas uploaded to Cho Hyun-ah’s Thursday Night channel, where Nayeon shared some insights into her life and TWICE's dynamics.

    When asked about her MBTI, Nayeon revealed, “I’m ISTP.” She added, “I don’t like going out. As a result, no one asks me to. I’ve never heard anyone say, ‘Nayeon, let’s go out.’”

    She continued, “I don’t like being tired. Even when I go out to eat, I always want to go home. My friends often ask, ‘Why do you keep looking out the window? Do you want to go home?’ I don’t have many friends, but the ones I do have are all good drinkers. But they don’t drink with me because they say I’m not fun.”

    Nayeon also joked, “I’m the funniest person in the team. When I’m with close friends, I’m really funny.”

    Cho Hyun-ah chimed in, “I have many ISTP friends. Suzy is also an ISTP and has a really unique personality. She’s easygoing and very cautious, always sensing danger. It’s a good trait for a celebrity,” she laughed.

    Nayeon, identifying strongly with the T (Thinking) aspect, was asked if she had ever laughed while someone next to her was crying.

    She admitted, “Yes, I have. I thought I was a bad person because of that. Not in very serious situations, but when someone cries out of being moved, it’s especially cute. So during fan meetings, when the members cry out of emotion, I laugh. If you look at the captures, it looks so bad.”

    She explained, “Even in emotional moments, I do tear up, but if someone next to me is crying, I hold back my tears and laugh. I don’t like the cheesiness.”

    Nayeon recently released her solo album ‘NA’. She shared, “All the members came and cried. They cried watching me practice and on the music video set. I think it was because they felt proud of me.”

    In 2022, she was the first TWICE member to release a solo album, ‘POP!’. She confessed, “When my solo album first came out, I was worried it might affect TWICE’s name, so it was a bit burdensome. So, I controlled my mindset by thinking that my main job is TWICE, and solo activities are secondary. That made it a bit easier.”

    When asked, “Is TWICE known for getting along well because there are no villains in the group?” she replied, “I think so. We really communicate a lot among the members. We even did today,” showing off their special bond.

  • Song Kang Ho Reveals Shocking Reason He Rejected "Joint Security Area" Role at First — Find Out Why He Changed His Mind

    Actor Song Kang Ho shocked fans by revealing the surprising reason he initially turned down the iconic role in Joint Security Area (JSA).

    On February 4, the movie JSA was celebrated as a "Visionary" work at a special GV (Guest Visit) event for CJ ENM’s 30th anniversary at CGV Yongsan I'Park Mall in Seoul. The event was attended by director Park Chan-wook and stars like Song Kang Ho, Lee Byung Hun, Lee Young Ae, Kim Tae Woo, and Ko Kyung Beom, who shared stories from the making of the film.

    Joint Security Area, a groundbreaking film by director Park Chan-wook, tells the story of North and South Korean soldiers caught in a tragic incident at the border, highlighting the human side of the divided nations. The film has been widely praised for changing the perception of inter-Korean relations and is seen as a key moment in Korean cinema.

    During the event, Song Kang Ho admitted that he turned down the JSA script at first, saying, "The script was just too perfect. It was so well-written and tightly woven that I couldn’t believe it. I thought, ‘Is this really Korean cinema at this level?’ I felt it was too good, and I figured the movie wouldn’t live up to the script."

    He also mentioned that at the time, Park Chan-wook’s previous films hadn’t done well, which made him even more doubtful. "But after meeting the director, I started to trust him," Song Kang Ho added.

    Reflecting on the film 20 years later, Song Kang Ho joked, "I was flipping through channels and watched JSA again. I thought, ‘There was a time when I wasn’t envious of Lee Byung Hun,’ but he looked so handsome and cool back then." He continued, laughing, "One thing about Park Chan-wook's films is that they have a depth and elegance that you just can’t forget. It’s probably why his new movie is called I Can’t Help It."

    Song Kang Ho also spoke fondly of reuniting with his JSA co-stars after 25 years. He shared, "We didn’t watch the film together, but we had a cozy two-hour dinner. After all this time, it felt nostalgic. It was heartwarming to sit together again and reminisce about the past. It really made me realize how meaningful these moments are."
