• Jung So Min Calls Wearing a High School Uniform "Embarrassing" in 'Love Next Door': "This Will Be the Real Last Time"

    Jung So Min recently opened up about her experience playing a teenage character in the new tvN drama 'Love Next Door'.

    At the press conference on August 14 at the Ramada Hotel in Sin-dorim, Seoul, Jung So Min shared her thoughts on donning a high school uniform again. Despite her initial hesitation, she approached the role with a positive attitude.

    "I thought I’d never wear a school uniform again," said Jung So Min, now 35. "Every time I put one on, I told myself it would be the last time. I didn't expect to wear it again for this drama, so I was quite worried."

    She added, "Filming was enjoyable because it let me act with a different energy from my usual roles. But I have to admit, it was a bit embarrassing. I really think this will be the last time I play a teenager," she laughed.

    Jung Hae In, her co-star, had a different take. "I hope it’s not the last time," he said. "Initially, I was nervous about wearing the uniform, but it made me feel like a fresh-faced teenager again and brought back a lot of memories. I ended up enjoying the experience more than I expected."

    'Love Next Door' is a romance drama that follows Bae Seok Ryu (played by Jung So Min) as she joins a global company and reunites with her childhood friend, Choi Seung Hyo (played by Jung Hae In).

    The show explores their rekindled relationship and promises both laughter and heartfelt moments.

    BLACKPINK’s Jisoo shared a surprising story from her trainee days!

    On January 29, the latest episode of Dex’s Fridge Interview was released on YouTube. During the chat, Dex asked Jisoo if she ever rebelled or broke the rules as a trainee. She confidently replied, “Not at all. The only rebellion I had as a trainee was eating.”

    Dex then jokingly imitated her younger self, saying, “I’m perfect, so why are they telling me not to eat? I’m going to eat tteokbokki!”

    Jisoo laughed and admitted, “Actually, I was really chubby back then. They kept telling me to lose weight, but I always said, ‘No, I need to eat. I like myself chubby.’”

    She even recalled a moment with YG Entertainment’s founder, Yang Hyun Suk:
    “The boss told me to lose weight, and I responded like that. He just walked away, thinking, ‘She’s a weird one.’ I literally said, ‘No! I like myself chubby!’”

    Jisoo then revealed that after she debuted, she naturally lost weight. She added, “Later, after I debuted and naturally lost weight, he was like, ‘You didn’t lose weight when I told you to, but now that you debuted, you did.’”

    Fans are loving Jisoo’s confidence and honesty! Meanwhile, her full interview on Dex’s Fridge Interview is now available on YouTube.
