Actor Jung Woo Sung's attempt to hold back laughter at Lee Byung Hun's joke at the 45th Blue Dragon Film Awards caught everyone's attention.

On November 29, Jung Woo Sung appeared at the Blue Dragon Film Awards as a presenter for the Best Audience Award.

Before presenting, he made a heartfelt apology regarding his recent personal issues. He said, “I hope my personal matters do not affect the movie 12.12: The Day. I sincerely apologize to those who have supported me and I will take full responsibility for my son.”

After the emotional moment, Jung Woo Sung joined fellow nominees Lee Sung Min, Lee Je Hoon, and Hwang Jung Min for the Best Actor category.

When Lee Byung Hun took the stage to present the award, he jokingly said, “The winner of the Best Actor award is… Lee Byung Hun,” causing an awkward pause. Lee then quickly added, “I wish it were me,” which made the audience laugh.

While most of the nominees, including Lee Sung Min, Lee Je Hoon, and Hwang Jung Min, laughed out loud, Jung Woo Sung struggled to hold back his smile.

His serious reaction, especially compared to the others, drew attention. He could be seen tightly closing his eyes, trying not to laugh, which sparked some reactions online.

When Hwang Jung Min won the award for Best Actor, Jung Woo Sung clapped, exchanged a brief hug with him, and shared a moment of eye contact.

Although 12.12: The Day had a successful night with Hwang Jung Min winning multiple awards, Jung Woo Sung maintained a serious expression.

His ongoing personal controversy seemed to affect his mood, and his comments about taking full responsibility for his son stirred mixed reactions from both fellow actors and fans.

BTS member J-Hope has truly made a mark in the U.S. market, and it’s clear that his popularity knows no bounds!

On February 28th, during the latest episode of MBC’s variety show I Live Alone (episode 585), viewers got a glimpse into J-Hope’s daily life in LA, where he was busy working on his solo album.

The episode showed him visiting a busy shopping mall in California, and what happened next was nothing short of amazing.

While shopping for meat at a butcher’s shop, J-Hope was approached by a young girl who asked, “Can you take a photo with my sister?”

This request was just the beginning! Soon after, more fans gathered around asking for photos and autographs.

One man even mentioned, “My friend works here, can I get an autograph?” But the real shocker came when a grandmother approached him and said, “My grandchildren are your fans.”

Park Na Rae was in awe, exclaiming, “It doesn’t matter the nationality. Even grandmothers are coming!”

J-Hope, always humble, couldn’t believe how widely recognized he was. “I didn’t think I’d be recognized in the local market,” he admitted.

But Jeon Hyun Moo quickly shut him down, saying, “What are you talking about? You’re a world star.”

He continued, “Americans usually don’t do that kind of thing. Even if Keanu Reeves takes the subway, people don’t acknowledge him.”

Jeon Hyun Moo’s words perfectly captured just how incredible J-Hope’s global fame has become!

From fans of all ages to being recognized in the U.S. with ease, J-Hope is truly a world star!
