• Kim Sejeong Shares Why She Moved Out: “I Needed A Quiet Space with a Touch of Alcohol!”

    Kim Sejeong recently shared why she decided to move out on her own—and it’s all about finding some quiet time and a little fun with her own home bar!

    On the November 3 episode of SBS’s My Little Old Boy, the popular singer and actress joined the show as a guest. Kim Sejeong charmed the show’s cast, the “Movengers”, by performing her well-loved song Flower Way.

    During the show, Seo Jang Hoon mentioned her reputation as a “rom-com queen” and asked if she’s starring in a new romantic comedy soon.

    Kim Sejeong happily shared about her latest project, Brewing Love, where she stars alongside Lee Jong Won, who is gaining attention after his role in Knight Flower.

    Host Shin Dong Yup asked the Movengers if they knew Lee Jong Won, to which they joked, “The old Lee Jong Won?” Shin Dong Yup clarified, “Not the veteran actor—this Lee Jong Won is a rising star.”

    The conversation then turned to Kim Sejeong’s living situation. Seo Jang Hoon asked if it’s true she moved out to have her own peaceful space and that her home’s main focus is her collection of alcohol. “Did you create a home bar?” he teased.

    Kim Sejeong laughed, explaining, “Yes, I wanted to display my collection. My new place has a wall that feels like an exhibition space, so I set it up there. I even keep my wine and beer chilled in the fridge.”

    hen the Movengers asked if she feels satisfied just looking at it, Kim Sejeong chuckled, “It really does feel like I’m enjoying a drink just by looking at it!”

  • Lee Kyung Gyu secretly helped Hong Jin Kyung debut on TV and she didn’t even know for years

    Lee Kyung Gyu's star-making influence goes beyond Kang Ho Dong, as Hong Jin Kyung shares how he helped her kickstart her career.

    On the April 24 episode of KBS 2TV’s Problem Child in House, legendary comedian Lee Kyung Gyu appeared as a guest—and a touching story from the past was revealed.

    Hong Jin Kyung surprised everyone when she said, “He’s the teacher for all of us. Personally, he’s the one who helped me debut.” She even pinned a carnation flower on his chest to show her gratitude.

    Lee Kyung Gyu smiled and said, “I still remember when Hong Jin Kyung walked up the stairs onto the stage for the first time.”

    Hong Jin Kyung then shared her journey to becoming a star. “I joined a supermodel contest, but only the top 3 winners were noticed in broadcasting. I got a special prize, so I had no chance to be on TV."

    She continued, "At first, I was just a backup for a show. But somehow, I became a regular the next week. I never knew why."

    She added, "I thought the PD gave me a shot. But then one day, I randomly met Kyung Gyu sunbae, and he told me it was actually him who recommended me.”

    Kim Sook asked with a smile, “So Kyung Gyu sunbae said nice things about you to the PD?”

    Lee Kyung Gyu playfully replied, “Don’t say it in such a childish way,” making everyone laugh.

    He then explained more seriously, “The show was Scoop TV Entertainment, and I was pretty much the main MC. When Jin Kyung showed up, I saw her determination and passion."

    He added, "While others didn’t seem serious, she really stood out. I told the PD, ‘She seems unique. Why not keep her on the show?’”

    Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “So if the main MC said that, doesn’t that mean you basically got her in?”

    That made Lee Kyung Gyu happy. He grinned and replied, “Exactly! You speak well. Be like him!”

    He added, “After that, Jin Kyung’s career took off. She started doing shows with Lee Young Ja and just kept going.”

    Fans are now calling Lee Kyung Gyu not only a top MC, but also a quiet star-maker behind the scenes!
