• 'The Trunk' Star Gong Yoo Reveals His Rule for Tough Situations in Relationships: "Honesty Always Comes First"

    Actor Gong Yoo has shared his heartfelt thoughts about relationships, showing his considerate and thoughtful side.

    On December 4, Netflix Korea uploaded a video titled "Seo Hyun Jin & Gong Yoo, How Far Can They Go? A Couple That Takes Balance Games Seriously" on its official channel.

    In the video, Gong Yoo and his co-star Seo Hyun Jin played a fun balance game, revealing their unique perspectives on different topics.

    One question stood out: "Knowledge is power vs. Ignorance is bliss?" Gong Yoo explained how this concept plays out in real-life relationships.

    "Sometimes, in relationships, you come across situations like this," he said. "For example, there’s something a friend should know, but they are completely unaware of it, and I somehow come to know the truth."

    He added, "If I think it’s something my friend needs to know, I’d hold onto them and tell them, even if it’s hard. I’d stay by their side and help them figure out how to navigate the difficult situation."

    Fans praised Gong Yoo for his sincerity, with many commenting on how relatable and thoughtful his approach to relationships is.

    Meanwhile, Seo Hyun Jin and Gong Yoo are the lead stars in the Netflix series The Trunk, which premiered on November 29.

    The series centers around a mysterious trunk that appears by a lakeside, unraveling secrets tied to real and fake marriages. As the story dives into these relationships, it explores emotional struggles, hidden truths, and unresolved pasts.

    Time Magazine described The Trunk as an intense and gripping series, stating, "It symbolically portrays the characters' suppressed memories and unresolved pasts, offering both emotional and narrative depth."

    The performances also received high praise. "Seo Hyun Jin delivered a nuanced portrayal of a complex inner self, while Gong Yoo showcased powerful yet delicate emotional acting," the magazine wrote.

    Similarly, NME highlighted the show’s artistic appeal, saying, "Director Kim Kyu Tae’s direction weaves the characters’ stories into an elegant dance, creating a visually overwhelming experience."

  • Kang Ye Won Breaks Down in Tears, Says She’s ‘Destined to Never Marry’—Joins Dating Show for Her 83-Year-Old Father

    Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

    On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

    During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

    She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

    She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

    When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

    "It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

    However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

    She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

    Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
