• Apink’s Bomi Opens Up About Her Thoughts on Having Children: “I Really Want to Have a Lot of Kids”

    Apink member Bomi has been thinking about having children, even though it's still a long way off.

    On November 16th, a video titled "Former Idol and Current Idol's Spicy Chat (feat. Former 4Minute/Current Actress Kwon So Hyun)" was uploaded on the YouTube channel Ppom Ppom Ppom.

    During the chat, former 4Minute member Kwon So Hyun, who has transitioned into acting, talked about her role in the movie Delivery, where she plays a pregnant woman. Bomi was surprised and joked, “So you haven’t even married, but you’re playing a mom?”

    Kwon So Hyun shared that she studied pregnancy and childbirth for her role by listening to the experiences of those around her.

    Bomi responded by saying, “I actually enjoy hearing childbirth stories. I really want to have a lot of children. So, even though it’s still far away, I’m curious. Should I go for a C-section or a natural birth?” she revealed.

    Kwon So Hyun then asked if Bomi preferred a C-section, and Bomi replied, “I’ve always wanted a natural birth. I know I haven’t experienced it, but I think a mother can handle the pain. If you’re a mom, wouldn’t you be able to do it? I want to experience it as a mother. "

    She added, "I heard that C-sections are hard afterward, and natural births can cause urinary incontinence. But I also heard C-sections have that issue too,” she explained seriously.

    Bomi also mentioned, “I ask a lot of questions about this. One of my friends is deciding whether to have a natural birth or a C-section, so we’ve been talking about it a lot recently.”

    Bomi, who has been dating producer Rado for 8 years, confirmed their relationship in April.

  • 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!
