• “Yumi's Cells” Is Back For Season 2

    Season 2 of the drama "Yumi's Cells," which has been loved by many people, will be next to us this summer.

    On April 26, Tving officially announced that "Yumi's Cells Season 2" will be released in June.

    In addition, a teaser poster for "Yumi's Cells Season 2" was introduced to announce the pink return of Yumi (Kim Go Eun). 

    There were phrases that amplified expectations, such as "The Second Story of Yumi and Cells," "Yumi is Back," and "Cell Stimulation Empathy Romance," all over the poster.

    In particular, Yumi's mature visuals with long hair caught the eye after saying goodbye to her trademark bobbed hair.

    Yumi showed off her beautiful appearance by wearing long hair.

    On top of that, it was also interesting to see the existence of the writer's cells that launched along with Yumi's prime cells (cells representing people).

    The love cell of the center of the still-brilliant and lovely cell village, the writer cell where Yumi will develop her dream that she has folded for a while, and the appearance of Yumi smiling brightly between the two cells further raised questions about the second story of "Yumi's cells."

    In "Yumi's Cells Season 2," Kim Go Eun's trustworthy performance, which maximizes the character's charm and completes the "real-life version of Yumi," continues.

    In the last season, Yumi, an ordinary office worker, grew up through dating and parting with Koo Woong (Ahn Bo Hyun), and she was encouraged by her co-worker Bobby (Jin Young) to try new things. 

    In the second season, the story of Yumi and cells on the border of dream and love is expected to be depicted.

    Meanwhile, Yumi's Cells, which were released simultaneously on TVing and tvN in September last year, drew great attention by portraying Yumi's story of eating, loving, and growing with cells in a pleasant and realistic manner.

    The combination of live-action and 3D animation, which was attempted for the first time in Korea, received favorable reviews not only for upgrading the charm of the original webtoon but also for making use of reality.

  • Chun Jung Myung’s Manager Now Serving Time After Stealing Billions, Source Reveals

    Actor Chun Jung Myung has opened up about a devastating betrayal by his former manager, who swindled tens of billions of won from his family. The former manager, who had been trusted like family, is now serving prison time for his actions.

    In the December 8 episode of SBS’s My Little Old Boy, Chun Jung Myung shared the shocking details of his financial fraud ordeal with fellow cast members Lee Sang Min and Kim Heechul.

    He explained, "I was financially defrauded by the manager I had worked with for 16 years since my debut. He forged documents to steal money and even caused huge financial losses for my parents."

    A close source confirmed on December 9, "The manager mentioned on the show ultimately couldn’t repay the damages and is now serving his prison sentence for fraud."

    The source also revealed that Chun Jung Myung suffered losses in the tens of billions of won. The emotional toll was severe, leading to social anxiety, and he even considered retiring from the entertainment industry due to the devastating betrayal.

    Chun Jung Myung debuted in 1999 with the drama School 2 and became a household name with roles in Beijing, My Love, Fashion 70s, and What's Up Fox? However, after his role in the 2019 drama Urban Cops: KCSI, he suddenly disappeared from the spotlight, sparking concerns from fans.

    An entertainment agency CEO weighed in, saying, "Celebrities, especially those with limited real-world experience, are vulnerable to scams because of their public status. Some get trapped and lose vast amounts of money after being used as figureheads."

    An entertainment law expert added, "Fraud cases are tricky because proving the intent to steal is difficult. If someone makes an enticing offer, always ask, ‘Why me and not them?’ Skepticism is key."
