• Hyeri Explains Why Breakups Hit Hard for Her, Reveals Why Saying Goodbye Always Makes Her Cry

    Hyeri, the singer and actress, shared some personal thoughts on breakups and emotional moments in her latest YouTube video.

    On December 6th, Hyeri posted a new video where she got a fresh layered haircut while chatting with beauty YouTuber Teacher Kiwoo.

    During their conversation, Kiwoo asked Hyeri, "What suits you the best?" Hyeri quickly responded, "I think variety shows suit me the best. I can’t just have fun all the time. I feel a lot of pressure, even when no one gives it to me."

    She continued, "When I’m filming, it feels like I’m just talking and playing with my older brothers and sisters. But after filming, I think I could just hang out with my friends. Isn’t that more fun?"

    Kiwoo was surprised by her answer and asked, "Then why did you cry during the last episode of Running Man?"

    Hyeri opened up, explaining, "I tend to cry when I have to say goodbye. After I cry, I feel relieved and clean. I think it’s important to say goodbye properly."

    She added, "Since I’ve experienced so many goodbyes in this job, I’ve gotten used to it. I’ve been with people all day, and then we part ways, so I’ve become numb to it. But I do cry a lot."

    Kiwoo, who had only seen Hyeri’s emotional side, was surprised by her words and said, "I thought you were very sentimental, but your response was different from what I expected." Hyeri confirmed, "I am sentimental, though."

    Fans have been touched by Hyeri's honesty and emotional openness about her experiences with goodbyes and the struggles that come with frequent farewells.

  • 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!
