• Jeon So Min is Back After a Break! Returning to Acting with New Movie 'Veranda'

    Actress Jeon So Min is making her comeback to acting after taking a break from 'Running Man.'

    Jeon So Min finished filming her new movie 'Veranda' (directed by Jo Sung-won) on July 13. The 'Veranda' team announced, "We started filming on June 10 and wrapped up on July 13 after 21 shooting days."

    'Veranda' is a romantic thriller about Hayeon (played by Jeon So Min), who has a happy family but starts to suspect someone is spying on her from a nearby apartment. As things go wrong, she uncovers hidden secrets. The film mixes familiar settings with intense suspense.

    Jeon So Min's return with 'Veranda' is special because it's her first acting role in about two years since the 2022 drama 'Cleaning Up' and the movie '2037.' During her break from acting, she appeared in variety shows like tvN's 'Skip' and SBS's 'Running Man' with Yoo Jae Seok.

    Last November, she surprised fans by leaving 'Running Man,' where she had been a regular member for seven years. Her agency, King Kong by Starship, said she needed a break to recharge for future acting projects. 'Veranda' marks her fresh start.

    In 'Veranda,' Jeon So Min plays Hayeon, who is happy with her husband Woojae (played by Ha Soo Ho) and son but gets shaken by misfortune and suspicion, hinting at a powerful performance.

    Ha Soo Ho plays her husband Woojae, and Ji Seung-hyun plays Hyun-woo, a man who finds hope after losing his family and meeting Hayeon.

    'Veranda' is also the first film directed by Jo Sung-won, who has worked as an art director and set designer for notable Korean films like 'The Battleship Island,' 'Svaha: The Sixth Finger,' 'Peninsula,' and 'Thirst.' His work promises a visually stunning film.

    Director Jo Sung-won said, "We aimed to create a work with unique fun and emotions. All the actors brought great energy and expressed their characters perfectly. Viewers will see new sides of the actors in 'Veranda.' We will continue to do our best in post-production."

    'Veranda' is set to be released in theaters in 2025.

  • Lee Min Ho Shares the Hilarious Story Behind His Famous Baeksang Fall—The One Thing He’ll Never Forget!

    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.
