• Taeyeon Was Assumed To Be Carrying Cigarettes, Here's The Reason Why

    Taeyeon was greatly embarrassed by the 'Generation Z' fans who mistook a cassette tape for a cigarette.

    On February 23, Taeyeon and Key appeared on a YouTube live broadcast of the 'Mukbang' YouTuber, Short-lipped Haetnim, who met through the tvN entertainment program 'Amazing Saturday'.

    More than 60,000 live broadcast viewers flocked to the news that Taeyeon and Key, who usually showed off their extraordinary sense of entertainment, appeared on the show.

    In response, Taeyeon showed off her recently released new song 'INVU' and started promoting passionately.

    When Taeyeon showed the album that came out on a cassette tape, a fan asked if it was a cigarette.

    Short-mouthed Sunnim and Key, including Taeyeon, did not know that the fan had misunderstood and checked whether the cigarette was on the broadcast screen.

    After realizing that the cassette tapes and cigarette packs looked alike, Taeyeon laughed out loud, saying that she never thought of it.

    Then, she acknowledged the generation gap, saying that 'Gen Z' fans may see cassette tapes for the first time.

    Taeyeon showed the tape album in detail again and explained for the young fans, "This is the tape."

    Short-mouthed Hat Nim surprised Taeyeon by saying that the tape album came out with 80's sensibility.

    Meanwhile, TAEYEON, who made a comeback with 'INVU', performed live and dance on the same day and showed a professional side, receiving a lot of cheers from fans.

  • Lee Jun Young says he felt guilty and cried after acting mean to a grandma in 'Brave Citizen'

    Lee Jun Young recently opened up about the emotional toll of playing a villain—and how one powerful scene made him break down in tears behind the scenes.

    On the May 1st episode of KBS 2TV’s variety show Problem Child in House, Lee Jun Young appeared alongside co-star Jung Eun Ji to promote their new KBS drama Pump Up the Healthy Love.

    During the show, Lee Jun Young was asked about the most unforgettable villain he’s played. He chose his role as Han Su Gang in the film Brave Citizen.

    He explained, “It was really tough to film. I had to act like I was leading school violence, and there was even a scene where I bullied a grandmother.”

    The hosts were surprised, pointing out how kind and gentle he seems in real life. Lee Jun Young shared how he transforms for such roles.

    “I try to act as bad as I can, but sometimes the director says, ‘You still look too nice.’ Then I focus even harder and adjust right away.”

    He also revealed that filming one particular scene hit him hard emotionally. “My real grandmother was sick at the time,” he said.

    “In one scene, there’s a grandma selling gimbap, and I ad-libbed by stubbing a cigarette out on the gimbap. I was really into character, but after filming, I just broke down. So many thoughts came to me and I started crying.”

    Fans praised his dedication to acting but also felt moved by how deeply the role affected him. Lee Jun Young’s honesty gave a raw look at how even fictional roles can hit close to home.
