• "Love their color!" Fans are happy that "non-whitewashed," unedited photos of TXT at "2023 Lollapalooza Chicago" have been released

    They look beautiful!


    Most of the time, K-Pop fans see pictures of artists that have been changed. Instead of changing the artist's face too much, things like lighting, skin structure and tone, and stray hairs are fixed.

    Fans have been hoping for a long time to see more "non-whitewashed" pictures of their favorite stars.

    Fans of TXT got what they wanted when Rolling Stone published pictures of the boys at Lollapalooza Chicago in 2023 that had not been edited. The boys were beautiful just the way they were.

    Here is Yeonjun on stage looking good.


    He did the most amazing thing anyone has ever done. Look at the looks on his face on stage!

    Soobin also looked beautiful, though the stage lighting made her look a little more tanned than normal.

    Soobin is known for being one of the kindest people in the group, so it doesn't look like he's being whitewashed. Instead, it looks like he's just being lit.

    HueningKai's yellow-blonde hair made him look great.

    He put his all into their show.

    As the group's lead singer, Taehyun was very emotional when he was on stage.

    He's a real pro because of the way he holds your attention on stage.

    Lastly, Beomgyu looked like a prince when he was on stage.

    We love how long his hair is.

    As you can see from the group photo below, the stage lighting did make the overall tone of the photo a little more yellow than normal.

    Fans should also be aware that skin color can look very different depending on the camera, lighting, and background.

    Here's a natural-light picture of the boys right before the set that hasn't been touched up. This possibly comes the closest to their real skin color.

    Fans are also happy that they're accepting the way heroes' skin looks.

    One thing is for sure: whether the photos are changed or not, the boys always look great.

  • Choi Jin Hyuk reveals how Choi Min Soo scolded him during their first drama, but it led to a stronger bond

    Choi Jin Hyuk opened up about the memorable moment when he was scolded by senior actor Choi Min Soo during their first drama together.

    On April 21, Choi Jin Hyuk, Choi Min Soo, and his wife Kang Joo Eun appeared on the personal YouTube channel Jjanhan Hyung Shin Dong Yup. During the episode, Shin Dong Yup, a close friend of Choi Min Soo, talked about the special bond between the two actors.

    "It’s rare to get really close to someone just by working together on a drama," Shin Dong Yup said. "Choi Min Soo loves all his juniors, but there aren’t many he particularly looks out for." He added that Choi Jin Hyuk’s connection with Choi Min Soo was something unique and special.

    In response, Choi Jin Hyuk shared a story from the filming of Pride and Prejudice, his first leading role in a public broadcast drama. He recalled feeling incredibly nervous during the script reading.

    "I was stuttering and trembling during the script reading," Choi Jin Hyuk said. "There were cameras filming behind the scenes, and Choi Min Soo told me, ‘Hey, turn the camera off.’ He said, ‘If you mess up the drama, are you going to take responsibility?’ I was so bad at acting that I stayed behind, and he scolded me for a long time."

    Despite the harsh criticism, Choi Jin Hyuk took it to heart. He decided to visit Choi Min Soo’s waiting room to ask for guidance.

    "I thought the harsh criticism would help me grow, so I went to his waiting room and asked him to teach me," he explained. "He helped me a lot, even getting into character and acting with me. I didn’t want to lose to him, so when we acted together, I stood my ground and didn’t blink. He didn’t blink either."

    Choi Jin Hyuk believes that Choi Min Soo appreciated his determination. "When I stood up to him and asked him to teach me, I think he saw it as a good thing. The drama turned out well, and I think he liked me because of that," he said.

    The two actors later worked together again on another drama, further strengthening their bond. Choi Jin Hyuk also shared a lighthearted joke, saying, "But I like his wife Kang Joo Eun more than him."

    Fans of Choi Jin Hyuk and Choi Min Soo can’t help but admire the touching story behind their strong friendship.
