• Song Hye Kyo’s YouTube Debut Moves Fans and Staff: "I’m Sorry I Can Only Offer Money" – Cha Eun Woo Makes Surprise Appearance

    Actress Song Hye Kyo has officially joined the world of vlogging!

    On January 10, a video titled "Not Me, but Song Hye Kyo's Vlog..." was uploaded to Davichi’s Kang Min Kyung’s YouTube channel, 'Gyungmingkyung', giving fans a glimpse into the actress's life.

    In the beginning of the video, Kang Min Kyung explained that she was editing and sharing Song Hye Kyo’s vlog, which had been filmed by the actress herself. She revealed that the vlog project was created to support Song Hye Kyo’s upcoming movie The Black Nun.

    The vlog starts with Song Hye Kyo attending a jewelry event overseas, where she appeared with no makeup, explaining, “Today is the day of the jewelry event. I’m washing up and waiting for the hair and makeup staff.” Later, she appeared at the event in a stunning outfit and warmly greeted fans abroad.

    Despite her glamorous appearance, Song Hye Kyo revealed how exhausted she was from her packed schedule. During the event, she casually turned the camera to show fellow actor Cha Eun Woo, who was also there, and he shared his support, saying, “I’ll support The Black Nun.”

    Back in Korea, Song Hye Kyo celebrated her birthday with her agency’s CEO, who shares a similar birthday. When Kang Min Kyung jokingly asked, "Have you spent over 20 birthdays together?" Song Hye Kyo responded with a laugh, saying, "So it’s getting boring now."

    But the real emotional moments came when Song Hye Kyo’s staff shared how deeply touched they were by her kindness. Her agency’s CEO recalled a time when Song Hye Kyo supported him during a tough time. He remembered, "I told Song Hye Kyo about the situation, and she just said, 'I understand.' Later, she left me a note saying, ‘Hang in there, unnie,’ with champagne waiting for me. She was in her 20s, and she handled the situation like a seasoned pro."

    Song Hye Kyo’s stylist of 20 years also opened up about a heartfelt moment. She recalled a time when her mother became very ill, and Song Hye Kyo, unaware of the situation, still managed to surprise her with a large amount of money. The stylist shared, “I’m so sorry that the only thing I can offer you right now is money. I feel bad that I couldn’t be there for you when you were struggling, and all I can do is give you money. I’m really sorry for that.” This heartfelt gesture left the stylist in tears.

    Song Hye Kyo’s kindness and generosity continue to shine through, showing that she's not only a star on screen but also a shining example of compassion in real life.

  • ADOR Drops Bombshell in Court: "NewJeans' Success Was Possible Because of HYBE’s 21 Billion KRW Investment and 'BTS’ Little Sister' Branding"

    ADOR is fighting to keep its hold on NewJeans (NJZ) and has revealed in court that the group’s success wasn’t just about talent—it was backed by massive financial support from HYBE.

    On March 7, the Seoul Central District Court held a hearing on ADOR’s injunction request to keep managing NewJeans and prevent the members from signing their own advertising deals.

    ADOR argued, NewJeans is one of Korea's top girl groups, and while their talent and hard work are key, that alone doesn’t explain their rapid rise. From their trainee days, our entire team—over 50 staff members, including stylists, choreographers, and directors—dedicated themselves to their success.”

    The company then dropped a major revelation, saying, “HYBE invested 21 billion KRW ($15.7 million) in ADOR in two phases. This level of funding for a single group is unheard of. Thanks to this, we built a special fan platform just for NewJeans and spent 10 billion KRW on their debut and marketing alone.”

    But that’s not all—ADOR also pointed out that NewJeans heavily benefited from HYBE’s connections, saying, “Before their debut, they were featured in BTS’ music videos and promoted their songs with HYBE artists through challenge videos. They were introduced as ‘BTS’ little sister group’ and marketed as the next BTS—even surpassing BTS.”

    This legal battle is far from over. NewJeans made headlines last November when they held a surprise press conference, declaring, “Our exclusive contract with ADOR is over,” and announced their new group name, NJZ. They’re even set to perform at ComplexCon in Hong Kong on March 23, hinting at their future without ADOR.

    However, ADOR insists that NewJeans is still under contract until July 31, 2029, and has taken legal action to prevent them from leaving. With both sides standing firm, fans are eagerly watching to see how this high-stakes fight will unfold.
