Fencing star Oh Sang Wook recently shared a hilarious story about how he ended up getting circumcised, all thanks to teammate Kim Jung Hwan.

On the September 4th episode of MBC’s Radio Star, Oh Sang Wook appeared alongside fellow athletes Gu Bon Gil, shooter Kim Ye Ji, archers Kim Woo Jin and Lim Si Hyeon, and boxer Lim Ae Ji, after their impressive performances at the 2024 Paris Olympics.

Oh Sang Wook opened up about something that's been following him since his last appearance on the show. “The last time I was here, we talked about a certain surgery that men get. People should be saying, ‘Wow, a gold medalist is so cool,’ but instead, all they think of is circumcision.”

This all started when his teammate, Kim Jung Hwan, previously spilled the beans. Gu Bon Gil chimed in, adding, "Jung Hwan hyung even paid for the procedure." Oh Sang Wook laughed and explained, “It was kind of forced. He invited me for tonkatsu, and that’s when he took me for the surgery!”

Host Kim Gura was shocked and asked, “Is it a tradition for seniors to pay for this kind of thing?” Oh Sang Wook responded, “Most guys have already had it done.”

Gu Bon Gil then joked, “When our Avengers team would go to the sauna, we’d say, ‘For good teamwork, we should all be the same,’ which is probably why he convinced me to do it,” making everyone laugh on set.

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.
