• 2NE1's Sandara Park talks about girl group members wearing daring outfits nowadays

    2NE1 member Sandara Park recently talked about girl group members wearing more daring outfits.

    On the July 21st episode of MBC's 'King of Mask Singer' (Episode 459), masked singers performed duets to try and stop the reigning champion 'Hercules' from winning five times in a row.

    During the first round, celebrity panelist Kim Gura commented on the masked singer 'Coconut Juice,' saying, "Since it's a summer special, aren't the clothes quite bold? They don't seem like an idol."

    Sandara Park replied, "But these days, with Waterbomb, such outfits are quite common." She noted that many girl groups are now wearing bold outfits. IZ*ONE's Kwon Eunbi, TWICE's Nayeon, Kiss of Life's Julie, and Oh My Girl's YooA have all worn daring outfits at Waterbomb.

    Sandara Park then guessed, "Anyone can see that Coconut Juice is a dancing machine." Hyojin Choi agreed, saying, "When singing, they naturally expressed the lyrics with their body. It's not a gesture you can do just once or twice."

    Shim Jin Hwa added, "I totally know who it is," using the slightly hunched posture to guess that 'Coconut Juice' might be dancer Bada.

  • Kang Ye Won Breaks Down in Tears, Says She’s ‘Destined to Never Marry’—Joins Dating Show for Her 83-Year-Old Father

    Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

    On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

    During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

    She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

    She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

    When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

    "It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

    However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

    She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

    Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
