Actor Lee Jung Jae recently made waves on the The Jennifer Hudson Show when he was given a surprise Korean welcome during his appearance to promote Squid Game season 2.

On January 8, a video titled "Hello Lee Jung-jae" was shared on the official X (formerly Twitter) account of the popular U.S. talk show, and it quickly caught fans' attention.

In the video, the staff of The Jennifer Hudson Show greeted Lee Jung Jae with an energetic "Hello Lee Jung-jae" in Korean while singing. Lee Jung Jae, clearly caught off guard, clapped his hands, danced along, and blew a kiss in response—leaving viewers in awe.

This heartfelt gesture is part of a tradition on The Jennifer Hudson Show, called the "Spirit Tunnel," where Jennifer Hudson and her team sing and dance to welcome their guests. The video of Lee Jung Jae's reaction went viral across platforms like X, TikTok, and Instagram, with fans sharing their love.

One fan commented, "Hearing Lee Jung Jae being welcomed in Korean was such a special moment! I loved seeing him enjoy it so much," while another said, "His smile and reaction warmed my heart. It’s so nice to see him so happy."

During the show, Lee Jung Jae was also congratulated for being the first Asian actor to win the Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actor. When asked about Squid Game season 2, he shared, "There’s a new game this season. Some games are ones I played as a kid, so they’ll be familiar to you. There will also be games that’ll make you think, 'Oh, I’ve seen a game like that in Korea.'"

In Squid Game season 2, viewers can expect the intense battle between Gi-hun (played by Lee Jung Jae) and the Frontman (played by Lee Byung Hun), as Gi-hun returns to seek revenge in the deadly game. The highly anticipated season 3 is set to be released later this year.

Shin Min Gyu, the popular influencer from Heart Signal 4, has officially confirmed his breakup with Yoo Yi Soo, revealing that it happened much earlier than fans had thought.

On January 9th, a new video titled "Min Gyu, How Honestly Are You Going to Talk Today?" was posted on the YouTube channel kiu기우쌤, featuring Shin Min Gyu as a guest.

During the interview, he opened up about his personal life and his breakup with Yoo Yi Soo, with whom he had been in a relationship after the show.

On Heart Signal 4, Shin Min Gyu and Yoo Yi Soo became the final couple, and they publicly dated for a while.

However, rumors of a breakup started swirling when both of them removed photos of each other from their social media accounts.

When asked by the host, Kiu, "How much are you going to say today?" Shin Min Gyu responded confidently, "I can say everything."

Kiu quickly asked, "So is the breakup now public?" and Shin Min Gyu, with a slight pause, replied, "We broke up?" then added with a confused look, "I guess I just said it."

Shin Min Gyu explained that he had been planning to address the breakup at some point, mentioning, "I hear a lot of strange things."

He continued, "I'm not a celebrity, I'm just an ordinary person, but surprisingly, my personal life is being investigated a lot."

He expressed his frustration, saying, "What bothers me the most is when people send DMs about the breakup to my family."

To clarify further, he added, "It’s possible we broke up, but it’s funny to just say 'we broke up.' It’s been a long time since we actually broke up."

Following the breakup rumors with Yoo Yi Soo, Shin Min Gyu was also caught up in new gossip involving another female influencer.

A post by this influencer showed her at the same location and wearing similar clothes to what Shin Min Gyu had shared on his own Instagram, leading to speculation about a new romance.

Addressing these rumors, Shin Min Gyu explained, "Even if I meet female friends outside, I don’t know how they know about it. I’ve even received messages from my younger sister telling me to get a grip and saying I have a flirtatious tendency."

It seems like Shin Min Gyu is ready to face the rumors and clear up the confusion once and for all. Fans are now waiting to hear more from him as he opens up even further about his personal life.
