Lee Min Ho opened up about facing intense criticism during the early days of his career and shared some light-hearted moments during a recent interview.

On January 6th, Lee Min Ho appeared on the web show Jjanhanhyung Shindongyeop alongside Gong Hyo Jin to promote their new tvN drama When the Stars Gossip.

While discussing his career, the beloved actor reflected on some of the challenges he faced, including an overwhelming wave of hate comments after the first episode of his breakout drama, Boys Over Flowers.

Lee Min Ho shared, "When the first episode aired, my Minihompy (a social media platform at the time) was flooded with malicious comments. Around 500,000 to 600,000 people came to my page just to curse me out."

He added, "It was because my character bullied Geum Jan Di (played by Goo Hye Sun). I started to wonder if I had done something really wrong and felt very worried."

However, things took a positive turn as the drama progressed. "Thankfully, those who hated my character in the beginning ended up loving him later on," he said, recalling the dramatic shift in audience perception as the storyline developed.

During the show, Lee Min Ho also spoke about connecting with people in different fields. "I enjoy meeting people who have different perspectives from mine, like entrepreneurs or IT leaders," he explained. "I feel closer to people who seem unchanged, even if we meet after years apart."

Reflecting on his roles, Lee Min Ho admitted it had been a while since he played a character who felt inferior. "Experiencing dismissive or cold looks from someone made me feel hurt," he said, laughing as he added, "But I think I was probably the worst when it came to giving those looks in my roles as a rich character."

Shin Dong Yeop joked, "How many actors do you think you’ve hurt with those glares?" making everyone laugh on set.

Lee Min Ho’s candidness and humor about his struggles with hate comments and his acting experiences have once again shown why fans continue to adore him. When the Stars Gossip airs on tvN, and fans can’t wait to see him back in action!

Actress Kim Sae Ron has fans buzzing after posting a cozy photo with a mystery man, sparking rumors that she might be getting married!

On her Instagram, Kim Sae Ron shared several photos with the word “Marry,” where she and a man can be seen wearing matching black outfits and striking affectionate poses. In the pictures, they are holding hands and leaning on each other, looking incredibly close. The word “Marry” only fueled speculation that the actress could be announcing a wedding.

Netizens couldn’t help but comment, "Is Kim Sae Ron getting married?", "This guy is so handsome, even the mosaic can’t hide it," and "Is this really a marriage announcement?" However, just as quickly as the photos appeared, Kim Sae Ron deleted them, but not before they spread across online communities and social media platforms, leaving everyone wondering what was going on.

This comes after Kim Sae Ron made headlines in May 2022 for being indicted for driving under the influence in Seoul’s Gangnam area. She crashed into road facilities like trees and a transformer and fled the scene. She was fined 20 million won for the incident.

On a brighter note, Kim Sae Ron is set to make her comeback in the film Guitar Man, which tells the story of a genius guitarist who joins an underground band called Volcano. The film was originally directed by Shin Jae Ho, but another director later took over. Guitar Man also stars Lee Sun Jeong, who is known as the vocalist and guitarist of the band Lee Sun Jeong Band. Lee Sun Jeong is said to have invested in and produced the movie, in addition to playing the male lead.

Will Kim Sae Ron’s cozy photos turn out to be a hint about her personal life? Fans are eagerly waiting for answers.
