• Lee Jung Jae And Jung Woo Sung Seem To Be Enjoying “Date” Time Together In Cannes

    Actors Lee Jung Jae and Jung Woo Sung enjoyed a date with fans in Cannes, France.

    Actors Lee Jung Jae and Jung Woo Sung appeared in the KBS2 entertainment program 'Year-round Live', which was broadcast on May 26th.

    The production team met two people who visited the 75th Cannes Film Festival with the movie 'The Hunt' and went on a guerrilla date.

    The guerrilla date took place on Cannes beach and on the streets, and Lee Jung Jae said, "Hello. You are now in Haeundae, the city of movies."

    Lee Jung Jae and Jung Woo Sung, who are usually close friends, will appear in the same work for the first time in 23 years with this 'Hunt'. Moreover, as the film entered the Cannes Film Festival, its meaning deepened.

    Jung Woo Sung and Lee Jung Jae, who each have experience in Cannes with the movies 'The Good, the Bad, the Weird' and 'The Maid,' said, "(We're coming together) feels so much better, and it's a great memory in life." It will be,”

    The two enjoyed Cannes, taking pictures with the beach in the background and meeting local fans. In particular, he provided extraordinary fan service, such as walking around the streets, chatting and taking photos for authentication. 

    French fans were delighted with the surprise date with the two and expressed their happiness.

    On this day, the two chose the more preferred option of the two, and played a 'equal unity balance game' at the same time, and they showed off their chemistry well, just like the nickname 'Cheongdam-dong couple'.

    To the question of 'Tell me one thing from the past' or 'Ask one thing for my future self', both of them chose the same 'future'. He added, "I want to ask how long I can be healthy."

    In addition, to the question of whether to choose 'NG in action scenes' or 'NG in emotional scenes', he answered "NG in emotional scenes" at the same time.

    When asked the question, "'Life without friends' or 'Life without a lover'?", the two could not readily answer as if they were in trouble. Lee Jung Jae said, "I should have both…" and finally gave up on the choice, and Jung Woo Sung said "both".

    Lee Jung Jae's reply, which seemed to be conscious of his lover Lim Se Kyung, vice president of Daesang, caught the attention of viewers.

    In 2015, Lee Jung Jae revealed that he was dating Vice Chairman Lim, who had been rumored to be dating several times. The two, who have been dating for 7 years so far, are appearing together in public. 

    Lee Jung Jae and Jung Woo Sung's new work, 'The Hunt', tells the story of Secrecy Ministry agents Park Pyong Ho and Kim Jeong Do, who suspect each other in order to find a hidden spy in the organization.

    It is a spy action drama that unfolds in the face of a huge incident called 'Korea's No. 1 Assassination Operation'. 

    This is Lee Jung Jae's directorial debut, and was screened at the Lumière Theater in Cannes, France on May 19th (local time).

  • NewJeans Minji writes touching letter on her birthday during activity halt: “We didn’t stop and we won’t stop”

    NewJeans' Minji touched fans' hearts with a handwritten letter on her birthday — even while the group is currently unable to promote due to legal issues.

    On May 7, Minji celebrated her birthday by sharing a heartfelt message on the group’s personal SNS account, which the members opened themselves to stay connected with fans.

    Minji began her letter with honesty, writing, “I think I’m living a busier life than I expected. When I finally looked up, it was already May, and it was my birthday.”

    She admitted that she had a lot she wanted to say, but her thoughts felt “messy.” Still, her message to fans was clear, “I just hope that I, our members, and Bunnies can all be happy. Happiness is the biggest goal in my life.”

    Minji then opened up about her personal journey and struggles, saying, “I sometimes think that running toward my happiness by doing what I love might look foolish to others. But isn’t giving up your happiness now for the sake of a future that might not even come… too harsh on yourself?”

    Despite everything, she ended on a hopeful note, “I really miss the times when we shared our feelings through the good music we made together. But I always look forward to what’s ahead."

    She added, "We didn’t stop here, and we’re not going to stop! It might look like we’re standing still, but I believe we’re growing deeper.”

    Her message comes during a difficult time for NewJeans. The group announced last year that they were cutting ties with ADOR, their original agency, after trust was broken. They later began working independently under the new name ‘NJZ’.

    However, ADOR responded with legal action — claiming the exclusive contract with NewJeans was still valid and asking the court to stop the group from promoting or signing deals.

    The court sided with ADOR and granted an injunction, forcing NewJeans to pause their activities. Their appeal was rejected, and they’ve now filed a second appeal.

    Through it all, Minji’s message proves one thing — even when forced to stop, NewJeans' hearts are still moving forward.
