• ‘Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha’ Staff Member and Child Actors Say Contradicting Things About Kim Seon Ho

    Kim Seon Ho continues to be the center of controversy over his personal life. While Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha‘s child actors’ mothers posted writings in support of the actor, a staff member’s interview said something completely opposite.

    On October 26th, on the Instagram of the child actors Ko Do-yeon (Bora), Ki Eun-yu (Lee Jun), and Kim Min-seo (Juri), photos taken with Kim Seon Ho were posted on the 26th of October. All three accounts are managed by the actors' mothers, and the posts were also uploaded by their mothers.

    Kim Min-seo's mother shared a captured photo of her two-shot with Kim Seon Ho through SNS, saying, "Believe only what you see, only say what you know. A happy memory to be remembered for a long time."

    Kodo-yeon's mother and Ki Eun-yu's mother also uploaded a photo of their daughter receiving an autograph from Kim Seon Ho on SNS. Kodo-yeon's mother said, "Hometown Cha Cha Cha that has become a memory. Posting the past photos. The day I got the autograph. I miss Hometown Cha Cha Cha-Cha. And I miss you."

    A staff member of 'Hometown Cha Cha Cha' also drew attention by writing, "Get back on your feet asap, just like Chief Hong. Kim Seon Ho, fighting!".

    Fans of Kim Seon Ho are responding enthusiastically to the support of the staff and mothers of child actors.

    However, on October 27th, another staff member from Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha said something totally different in an interview with 10Asia. “Kim Seon Ho made people very uncomfortable at the filming site by frequently making an annoyed face,” he said. “As someone who actually worked with him a lot, I don’t want to root for him.”

    According to him, while filming the scene where he shares a meal with Lee Sang Yi at Kim Young OK’s house, Kim Seon Ho found something in the food. “I know that that’s something that could put him on a bad moon. But after that, the staff tried to refill the dish, but he so sternly said no, embarrassing everyone.”

    He added, “He’s kind to the actors and always has a smile on his face. But whenever he’s not satisfied with his acting, he would blame the staff and make awkward situations.”

  • Hwanhee’s Agency Hits Back Against Shocking Claims of Favoritism on ‘King of Singers Season 2’—Vows to Defend His Reputation

    Hwanhee's agency, BT Entertainment, is firing back after serious fairness allegations were raised regarding the popular show ‘King of Singers Season 2’. They’ve denied all accusations and promised strong legal action for defamation.

    On February 5th, the agency issued a statement through their official fan cafe, saying, “We want to correct the false claims.”

    They explained that Hwanhee was initially approached to join the show in August 2024 by the production team. However, after checking with the event planning company, Dion Communication, they confirmed Hwanhee had no connection to the show or any related performances.

    Despite this, the agency pointed out that certain media outlets published unverified articles, wrongly suggesting that Hwanhee’s involvement could compromise the fairness of the program.

    BT Entertainment was quick to defend their artist, stressing the damage done to both Hwanhee's reputation and the agency itself due to these false claims. They added, "This has caused great harm to Hwanhee, who joined the program after careful consideration."

    The statement didn’t stop there. BT Entertainment made it clear that they won’t stand for any further defamation. They said, “We are taking legal action against these baseless reports” and emphasized their commitment to protecting Hwanhee from any further harm.

    They also reassured their fans, stating, “We will take swift action against any future misinformation to avoid any further harm to Hwanhee and his supporters.”

    This controversy started after a media outlet raised concerns on January 23rd about Hwanhee’s participation in the show. The report claimed that BT Entertainment’s CEO, who is also a director at Dion Communication, had invested 1.1 billion KRW in the ‘King of Singers Season 2’ concert, leading to suspicions of favoritism towards certain contestants.

    In the meantime, ‘King of Singers Season 2’ continues its intense competition, with Hwanhee making it to the semifinals. Fans are watching closely as he currently holds 1st place in the first round of the semifinals, cementing his position as a strong contender to represent Korea in the Korea-Japan King of Kings battle.
