• Dex reveals his biggest food struggles—Says cilantro tastes like a barbershop and sweet potatoes ruin dishes

    Dex admitted he’s a picky eater when it comes to vegetables.

    On the March 23 episode of JTBC’s Please Take Care of My Refrigerator Since 2014, Dex’s fridge was revealed, and it left everyone surprised.

    Inside, the only vegetables he had were lettuce, perilla leaves, and potatoes. He explained, “I only keep what I like.”

    Previously, during a cooking battle featuring Lee Da Hee’s fridge, MC Kim Sung Joo even caught Dex picking out all the vegetables, including zucchini.

    Lee Da Hee backed this up, sharing, “I recently had a meal with him at a Single’s Inferno gathering, and he asked for cucumbers to be removed from his cold noodles.”

    Dex confessed, “Yeah, I can’t eat cucumbers. The smell is too strong. I’ve never been able to eat them since I was a kid.”

    He also listed other vegetables he avoids, saying, “I don’t like carrots, cilantro, or bell peppers.”

    But his take on cilantro had everyone laughing. “Cilantro tastes kind of like a barbershop,” he claimed.

    He even has strong feelings about sweet potatoes! “I like potatoes, but I don’t like sweet potatoes. If sweet potatoes are in a dish, it just ruins it for me.”

    Fans couldn’t help but find his food preferences amusing, with many saying they relate!

  • Seo Ye Ji shocks fans with controversial jokes about her scandals on 'SNL Korea' after 8 years away from variety shows but fans are not buying it

    Seo Ye Ji is facing major backlash after her surprising appearance on SNL Korea 7.

    On April 12, Seo Ye Ji made her long-awaited return to variety shows by guest-starring on Coupang Play's SNL Korea Season 7.

    Before the show started, she made jaws drop by joking, "I'll gaslight the SNL crew and make it fun," referencing her own past controversies.

    During the "Seo Ye GPT" segment, Seo Ye Ji played an AI that helped Kim Won Hoon nail a company presentation. She then made a sharp comment, saying, "The truly embarrassing thing is sitting quietly and being talked about behind your back. I've experienced that a lot," hinting at the criticism she’s faced.

    In the "Eve Hair Salon" skit, Seo Ye Ji acted as a salon director and joked about her past "Kim Ddak Ddak" scandal, where she was accused of controlling her then-boyfriend Kim Jung Hyun. When a character mentioned her stiff neck, she responded, "It's firm," making everyone laugh but also stirring mixed feelings.

    Fans were shocked to see Seo Ye Ji using her past scandals as comedy material, especially since it’s been eight years since her last variety show appearance. Many pointed out that joking about serious accusations like gaslighting and academic fraud might have gone too far.

    The controversy over Seo Ye Ji’s education also came back into the spotlight. She had previously claimed she studied abroad in Spain, but in 2021 it was revealed she never actually attended the university she mentioned.

    Her agency explained she was accepted but didn’t attend because of her career in Korea, but many netizens weren’t convinced.

    On SNL Korea, Seo Ye Ji even played a character who lied about her past to impress a boyfriend, making fans think of her real-life academic background scandal.

    After the episode aired, reactions online exploded. Some comments included, "Falsifying academic background is a crime," "This was too much," "It was funny though," "Let’s forgive it since it’s black comedy," and "Why was Seo Ye Ji the first guest?"

    Seo Ye Ji’s bold jokes have definitely split public opinion, with some calling it brave and others saying it only reopened old wounds.
