Actor Ji Chang Wook is in the spotlight for an unexpected reason—a notebook incident that’s led to some controversy.

On the 5th, Ji Chang Wook’s agency, Spring Company, made a public appeal titled "Looking for the Person" on their official account.

The agency said, "We’re trying to find the fan who had their signed notebook taken during Ji Chang Wook's stage greeting for ‘Revolver’ on August 7th." They added, "If you are the owner of the notebook or know who they are, please get in touch with us."

They explained, "We didn’t notice the hand reaching for the notebook at the time, and we apologize for any confusion."

The situation began on July 7th during a stage greeting for the film ‘Revolver,’ where Ji Chang Wook signed a notebook for a fan. However, Ji Chang Wook accidentally left the event holding the signed notebook, which led to some confusion. The notebook’s owner later managed to retrieve it at another screening.

This mix-up has led to what’s now being called the "Ji Chang Wook character controversy."

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.
