MC Mong recently shared his thoughts on his fashion style, responding to rumors that he's copying G-Dragon's scarf look.

On November 12, the singer posted a series of selfies on his personal Instagram with the caption, "Fashion isn’t about who does it first, it’s about the face. #Respect #Love."

He went on to add, "I recommend this fashion to those with swollen faces or who have gained weight quickly. I’ve been wearing this for 2 years, and I’ve been told 11 times I’m copying someone."

Although MC Mong didn’t name anyone directly, many fans speculated that he was referring to G-Dragon. The BIGBANG member has recently been spotted wearing scarves over his hat, a look that has caught attention. In his selfies, MC Mong also rocked a similar style, with a scarf, hat, and a Chanel jacket—a brand that G-Dragon currently represents.

MC Mong is currently working as the general producer for the girl group BADVILLAIN under Big Planet Made Entertainment, where he goes by the name Villain36.

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!
