Rapper Lee Young Ji just revealed that NCT’s Mark surprised her with an expensive Rolex watch, worth around 16 million KRW (~$12,000 USD), and her reaction was priceless!

On January 29, Lee Young Ji took to Instagram to share her overwhelming feelings, writing, "I’ve only ever given Rolex watches to others but never owned one myself. But Mark gifted me one as a thank-you for featuring on his song. It was such a huge gift that I couldn’t even bring myself to wear it. I’ve just been keeping it, whispering, ‘The king’s ears are donkey ears.’"

She went on to explain how it all happened, saying, "During the music video shoot, Mark kept asking me if there was anything I wanted. I kept saying no, but he kept insisting. So, just as a joke, I told him to buy me a Porsche—never thinking he’d actually do anything. And then… he showed up with a Rolex, which I guess is kind of similar to a Porsche. I almost fainted!"

Mark even made sure she liked it, telling her she could be honest if she didn’t. Lee Young Ji hilariously added, "I just sat down and cried (exaggeration)."

She then made a dramatic promise, saying, "I told him I’d wear it until I retire, but he said I was being too much. Since he didn’t believe me, I told him I’d make sure to be buried with it—so he better live longer than me."

Ending her post, she expressed her gratitude, writing, "Mark, I’ll cherish this and wear it well. Thank you for inviting me on a great song and giving me such a thoughtful gift. My first-ever watch! Genius artist Lee Mark, wishing you long life and fortune!"

Lee Young Ji featured on Mark’s solo track Fraktsiya, released in December 2023, and it seems their collab turned into a truly unforgettable memory.

Kim Soo Hyun’s agency, Gold Medalist, has spoken up about the recent controversy involving the late Sulli and her bed scene in the 2017 movie Real.

On April 2, Gold Medalist released an official statement saying, “From the very beginning, the role of Song Yoohwa, played by the late Sulli, included a bed scene. This was clearly stated during casting, and the actress had to be comfortable with it.”

They explained, “Just like job listings mention necessary qualifications, this role required exposure, and that was made clear in advance. If these things are only discussed after casting, it can create unnecessary pressure on the actor.”

The agency also emphasized, “Sulli and her agency were fully aware of the bed scene before she accepted the role. The script clearly described the level of exposure required, and the contract also included these details.”

Addressing rumors about a body double, they stated, “There was no body double for the acting. A ‘standing actor’ was only used during rehearsals to help with movement cues.”

Gold Medalist also included statements from Real’s assistant director Kim Joong Wook and script supervisor Lee Jun Hyun, confirming, “No actor was ever forced into doing a bed scene or nudity. That would never happen on set.”

As for claims that they contacted Sulli’s mother, the agency denied it and responded to her brother’s accusations, saying, “It’s understandable to have concerns about things heard at the funeral. However, bringing up something from six years ago and spreading false information as if it were personally witnessed is hard to accept.”

Finally, they urged people to stop spreading false rumors, saying, “Many people worked hard on Real, and these baseless accusations are hurtful. Also, there have been false rumors targeting Kim Soo Hyun recently. We sincerely ask for an end to speculative reports and misinformation.”

This comes after the late Sulli’s older brother, Choi, raised concerns on March 28 about the bed scene in Real, demanding answers from Kim Soo Hyun and director Lee Sa Rang.
