Actor Jo In Sung recently shared his thoughts on dating and marriage, revealing that his confidence has taken a hit.

On September 9, the YouTube channel "Sympathetic Hyung Shin Dong Yup" dropped a video where the actor got real about his feelings.

Jo In Sung admitted, “Right now, I’m happy. But it’s not because of marriage. Even if I start dating again, I think I’d still be happy. Saying ‘I’ll never marry’ or ‘I have to get married’ is just too extreme,” hinting that he’s not completely against the idea.

He also shared a personal story about his mom, saying, “I’m at the age where I should be married, and my mom keeps telling me, ‘You should at least have a kid.’”

He reflected on this by adding, “People think living a ‘normal’ life means getting married and raising kids, but I wonder how tough that life must be. I think those people are really mature. When things get hard, I turn to famous people or books for advice, but honestly, my parents have been the best teachers and guides for me.”

When asked about his dating life, Jo In Sung said, “It comes and goes, comes and goes.”

He also opened up about a conversation with fellow actor Bae Sung Woo earlier this year. Jo In Sung said, “I called him and told him, ‘Hyung, I’m losing confidence as a man.’ I felt like I had a better shot dating younger women than someone my age or older, and I wondered, ‘Do I even have any charm left?’”

Jo In Sung continued, “Sometimes I think, ‘I’m getting older little by little.’ Without my fame, I wonder, ‘Would younger women still like me?’ I mean, everyone from their 20s to their 60s is competition. So, I asked, ‘Am I still competitive?’ and Sung Woo hyung jokingly said, ‘Why are you doing this to me?’” His story brought some laughs.

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.
