    Meanwhile, other netizens quickly responded with comments such as:

    It turns out that Twice-roaches hates all of these groups. By the way, RV had 40,000 people enter it.

    I don't know what criteria Pann uses to hate on groups, but every group except Twice has been called a "flop" by Pann at least once ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

    So there was a reason why ONCEs were trying to turn off groups like Soshi, RV, BP, IVE, Le Sserafim, NewJeans, and Aespa. Since they can't compare their results to anyone else's, they've been trying very hard to hurt the bonds between other groups.

    78 is embarrassing as hell ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

    Every day, there were posts that were bad about Soshi, BP, and IVE's results ㅋㅋㅋ

    BP's song came out at 1 p.m. on a Friday and still has the most users. But it's a well-known story that people say they failed.

  • Gong Hyo Jin reveals the real reason she doesn't post couple photos with husband Kevin Oh

    Actress Gong Hyo Jin finally gave fans an honest answer about why she never shares couple photos with her husband Kevin Oh, and the reason might surprise you!

    On May 4, Gong Hyo Jin uploaded a video on her YouTube channel For Now, Gong Hyo Jin, where she held her first Q&A session. And yes—she spilled some real tea.

    When asked if fashion sense is something you’re born with, she laughed and said, “You could say I was born with it.”

    She explained how even as a kid, she was super picky about her school outfits. “My mom told me I spent so much time choosing what to wear. I think fashion is something you’re naturally drawn to.”

    Talking about her strong color sense, she added, “Some color combos still look good even after 10 years. If you see them in old photos, they still feel trendy. I think fashion sense comes from having a natural feel for color.”

    She also talked about her career choices and said she doesn’t regret missing out on any acting roles. “I’m not the type to have regrets. I always think there’s a reason things didn’t happen. I’ve done the projects I really wanted, and if someone else did a role I passed on, I just think, ‘It suited them better.’”

    But the moment that really had fans leaning in was when someone asked, “Can we please see some cute couple photos with Kevin?”

    Gong Hyo Jin smiled and revealed, “We actually have a lot of couple photos, but…” Then came the real reason. “Even before we got married, Kevin and I both agreed—we wanted to stay true to who we are. I wanted to stay just ‘me,’ and he wanted to stay an artist.”

    She got real, saying, “When people see couple photos, they start focusing only on the couple image. But I’m an actress, and that kind of spotlight can make things more complicated. It’s not like I’m hiding anything, but… I do hold back a little.”

    Fans praised her honesty and admired how she stays true to herself. One fan commented, “She’s protecting her career and her love life at the same time. Queen behavior!”

    So for now, we’ll just have to imagine how adorable their couple photos are—but who knows, maybe she’ll drop one someday?
