    In the photo, Jin radiates his signature 'God of Beauty' charm, rocking short black hair and a light-striped shirt.

    His sharp, egg-shaped face, flawless features, and broad, chiseled shoulders have fans swooning over his ethereal look as he shows off the new Samsung Galaxy phone’s feature.

    But that’s not all! Samsung France’s Instagram and X (formerly Twitter) previously teased ARMY with a stunning video of Jin, highlighting his mesmerizing visuals as he experienced an Olympic pop-up.

    And if you think his Samsung appearance was a showstopper, wait until you hear about his latest achievement!

    Back on July 14, Jin made waves in Paris, France, as he proudly carried the Olympic torch for the upcoming 2024 Paris Summer Olympics.

    Standing out as the ‘ultimate attention-grabber,’ Jin led the Louvre section as the first runner, during France’s iconic Bastille Day celebration.

    A major honor for any foreign celebrity! His presence dominated global search rankings, proving once again why he’s truly a global superstar.

    French media Paris Match couldn’t get enough of Jin either, calling him the only foreign star among the 31 torchbearers and writing, "If July 14, 1789 (Bastille Day) hastened the end of the French monarchy, then 235 years later, Jin has become a true prince."

    Even the U.S. powerhouse Associated Press spotlighted Jin as the torchbearer who stole the show, while Billboard named his participation in the Olympic torch relay one of the "Top 10 Things to Look Forward to at the 2024 Summer Olympics."

    Jin is truly unstoppable!

  • Hyun Bin Apologizes for the 'Ddongcha' Theory After 20 Years: "I Was Wrong" - Actor Clears the Air About Iconic Role

    Hyun Bin is finally addressing the long-standing "ddongcha" (poop car) theory surrounding his character from My Name is Kim Sam-soon—and he's not holding back!

    In an interview on the 19th with Star News, the beloved actor confessed, "I was wrong," responding to the reevaluation of his iconic role as Hyun Jin-heon from the 2005 hit drama. The "ddongcha" theory has been a subject of online debate for years, with many viewers critiquing Hyun Jin-heon’s character as overly arrogant and entitled.

    Hyun Bin, who first rose to fame in My Name is Kim Sam-soon, took the time to reflect on the character that made him a household name. He shared, “I was just following the script; there were no personal opinions added to the character of Hyun Jin-heon. At that time, I knew Hyun Jin-heon was portrayed as a ‘bad boy,’ and the way it was expressed was different from today’s standards.”

    With My Name is Kim Sam-soon now being re-released as part of Wavve's "New Classic" project, fans are revisiting the 2005 drama, and the character of Hyun Jin-heon is under fresh scrutiny. Director Kim Yun-cheol even admitted that the "prince on a white horse" and "bad boy" tropes that once worked in 2005 don’t quite match today's sensibilities, leading to edits in the 2024 version.

    Hyun Bin humbly acknowledged his gratitude for his successful career and hit works, saying, "It’s wonderful and I am grateful to have so many hit works. I’ve been fortunate to work with amazing writers, directors, and actors. Thanks to them, I’ve received a lot of attention and love." He also shared a sense of humility, noting, “But I never know when that luck will come again."

    Despite the dramatic shift in perspective on his character, Hyun Bin’s charm and dedication remain strong. Fans are eager to see him in his upcoming film Harbin (directed by Woo Min-ho), set to be released on the 24th.
