• Actress Jeon Do Yeon Opens Up About Working with "Rude" Younger Actors: "They’re not completely absent"

    Actress Jeon Do Yeon shared her thoughts about her junior colleagues.

    On August 4th, the YouTube channel "Fairy Jaehyung's Fairy Table" posted a video titled "How did you endure those times, Do Yeon?"

    During the episode, Jung Jae Hyun mentioned that many junior actors attended the play "Cherry Orchard" in which Jeon Do Yeon performed.

    Bae Doona, among others, also came to see the play and gave flowers to Jeon Do Yeon. Other juniors such as Kim Go Eun, Lim Ji Yeon, Cha Eun Woo, and Chun Woo Hee also visited.

    Jung Jae Hyun remarked, "More than the promotion, the photos taken by the juniors in the waiting room became a big issue. It made me think that you are an actor they really admire." Jeon Do Yeon responded, "I was very grateful and proud. I thought, 'I've lived my life well, I've survived well, I've endured well.'"

    Jung Jae Hyun brought up what Kim Go Eun said about Jeon Do Yeon on "Fairy Table." He said, "When Kim Go Eun appeared, she mentioned that you don’t give advice to juniors first, but instead, you give them more compliments."

    Previously, Kim Go Eun had said, "She never once told me, 'You should do it this way.' When I was struggling and asked for advice, she said, 'How about relaxing your breath?' which was a eureka moment for me."

    Jeon Do Yeon, seemingly embarrassed, said, "I don't remember well," and continued, "I always say that even though we are seniors and juniors, we are colleagues on set. Even if what they do seems lacking to me, that's my feeling, not theirs. And aren’t they portraying a different character? No one knows the character better than they do. It's about mutual respect."

    When Jung Jae Hyun commented, "That’s not an easy thing to do. There might be some rude juniors," Jeon Do Yeon admitted, "That's true. But I can’t really say much. I either watch them or complain behind their backs. I tell them it's okay in person. It happens, right?" making everyone laugh.

    Jung Jae Hyun then remarked, "It seems the feelings you have on set as a senior are different from what we know."

    Jeon Do Yeon replied, "In fact, when I’m on set, I focus more on the work than on anyone else. Honestly, there aren’t that many rude juniors," then added with a laugh, "But they’re not completely absent." Jung Jae Hyun concluded, "Focusing on your work means you’re a perfectionist," to which Jeon Do Yeon agreed.

  • Writer Lee Seon Ok Defends Jung Woo Sung, Says Women Should Be Responsible for Their Decisions in Single Motherhood

    Writer Lee Seon Ok has raised concerns over the way actor Jung Woo Sung is being portrayed in connection to his recent scandal involving an out-of-wedlock child.

    On November 26, Lee Seon Ok took to social media to share her discomfort with the public reaction to the situation.

    She stated, “A woman, who is an adult, made the decision to have a child on her own. How can anyone say the man made her a single mother? A 35-year-old woman is not a brainwashed minor.”

    She went on to question why, when a woman chooses to give birth and raise a child, the responsibility is being shifted to the man, even though they weren’t in a relationship.

    She pointed out, “When talking about abortion rights, people often argue that a woman’s body belongs to her alone, and only she should have the right to choose. But when it comes to childbirth, suddenly the man is blamed for making someone a single mother.”

    Lee Seon Ok also questioned, “Wasn’t the push for men to share responsibility in abortion laws meant to involve men in decisions post-birth?” She emphasized that “it’s not right to criticize or assign blame to others for their personal choices.”

    In her post, she further criticized people who were assigning blame, stating, “If you think this incident harmed the woman’s life, then learn about proper contraception.”

    On the same day, Democratic Party lawmaker Lee So Young also weighed in on the controversy, saying she didn’t understand why Jung Woo Sung’s choice not to marry had become such a topic of public criticism.

    She pointed out that society accepts couples who have children and then divorce, and wondered if we should really criticize people who have children without marrying and live separately.

    Meanwhile, Jung Woo Sung recently confirmed that he is the biological father of model Moon Ga Bi’s child, despite not being in a relationship with her at the time.

    Moon Ga Bi gave birth to the child in March and is raising it alone. Jung Woo Sung’s agency has stated that they are discussing the best way to co-parent and that Jung Woo Sung is committed to being a good father.
