The buzz around Tesla’s futuristic Cybertruck has reached South Korea, and the first officially registered vehicle has caught everyone’s attention.

Fans initially speculated that the owner might be a big-name celebrity like G-Dragon, but the truth has been revealed—and it’s someone else entirely!

The first Cybertruck in South Korea belongs to none other than singer Kim Junsu. On December 23, a foreign car import and sales company shared a post titled "Tesla Cybertruck with First Korean License Plate", showing the sleek vehicle being registered with its new license plate. The post quickly spread across online communities, stirring up excitement among car enthusiasts.

The original post revealed the license plate number, leading fans to identify Kim Junsu as the proud owner.

Addressing the situation, a representative from the company explained, “We coordinated with Kim Junsu and his agency before sharing the post. However, we didn’t clearly mention his name, which caused confusion among fans. We deeply apologize for this oversight.”

The representative also acknowledged the backlash over the visible license plate, saying, “We regret not blurring the plate more effectively, which caused discomfort. The post has since been corrected. Despite these issues, we are grateful for Kim Junsu’s patience and understanding.”

They added, “Kim Junsu waited for four months during the lengthy certification process, even though we expedited it by flying the vehicle over by plane. He never expressed frustration, and I feel incredibly apologetic for the delay.”

Tesla’s Cybertruck, with its bold and futuristic design, is estimated to cost between 83.56 million to 136.96 million won in South Korea, depending on the model.

While G-Dragon previously made headlines for riding a Cybertruck with temporary plates at Incheon International Airport, the first officially registered owner is now confirmed to be Kim Junsu.

Kim Junsu’s new ride is certainly turning heads—and fans can’t wait to see what he does next!

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!
