• Jang Young Ran and Ha Ji Young Share Heartwarming Stories About Kim Hye Soo and Jo In Sung

    On July 27th, the YouTube channel 'A-Class Jang Young Ran' featured a special visit to Kim Sae Rom’s home by Jang Young Ran, Park Seul Gi, and Ha Ji Young. They shared their personal experiences with celebrities, including some surprising stories.

    Jang Young Ran talked about her reporter days, saying, “We stayed in the industry through hard work. Reporters don’t have personal lives. If there’s a promise with friends and a 'Hyun Bin CF shoot' comes up, you have to go immediately.”

    Kim Sae Rom, Ha Ji Young, and Park Seul Gi also discussed tough moments with celebrities. Kim Sae Rom recalled a senior celebrity who made fun of her in front of others and tried to hit her after filming. Park Seul Gi shared that a male actor slapped her manager for being late because of a live radio show.

    Despite these stories, the team wanted to hear about positive experiences. Kim Sae Rom talked about Jo In Sung, saying, “Years ago, during an interview, he greeted me with a deep bow and said, ‘Hello, Sae Rom.’ I thought he must be a really nice person.”

    Ha Ji Young also had a touching story about Jo In Sung. She remembered, “On the day I was discharged, I went for an interview. Everyone was focused on Jo In Sung. I asked him, ‘What’s the first line?’ He lowered his microphone and asked, ‘Have you been well?’ It was very sweet.”

    When Park Seul Gi asked if Ha Ji Young would talk about Kim Hye Soo, Ha Ji Young shared their special bond. She said, “In 2007, after sending off Kim Jong Min to the army, I mentioned wanting home-cooked food. Kim Hye Soo unexpectedly invited me to her home. Later, she ran after me to get my phone number so she could invite me for a meal. She even cooked for me.”

    Ha Ji Young added, “Kim Hye Soo was very supportive. She bought 2/3 of the seats at my performances so her friends could come throughout the month. I’m very thankful to her.”

  • 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.
