Actor Park Bo Gum showcased his frugal side.

On the premiere episode of JTBC's entertainment show 'My name is Gabriel' aired on June 21st, viewers got a glimpse into Park Bo Gum's daily life as a resident of Dublin, Ireland.

During the episode, Park Bo Gum went out in the morning and made a stop at a mart to buy some fruits.

He noticed that 4 oranges were priced at 4 euros, which he found quite similar to prices in Korea.

Despite this, he proceeded with the purchase, mentioning, "I heard fruits are cheap here," but soon encountered an unexpected discovery.

On his way back home, Park Bo Gum stumbled upon a fruit market where he found 10 oranges priced at only 2 euros. Surprised by the drastic price difference, Park Bo Gum realized he had paid too much at the mart and sighed, commenting, "This is unbelievable."

In a subsequent interview, Park Bo Gum reflected on the moment, saying, "The price gap was too extreme. Even though it wasn't my money, the market prices seemed so reasonable to me."

Determined to correct his mistake, Park Bo Gum promptly returned to the mart for a refund. He nervously approached the cashier, hoping they would understand despite his limited English skills.

Luckily, he successfully obtained a refund and happily returned to the fruit market to purchase a larger quantity of fruits.

He joyfully exclaimed, "It's incredible. Getting a refund for those oranges today was like a miracle."

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.
