• Actress Park Shin Hye Initially Wants to Become a K-pop Idol — Here’s Why She Changed Her Mind

    In a recent rendezvous, actress Park Shin Hye candidly expressed her thoughts on the K-pop industry, admitting that she could never envision herself as a K-pop idol.

    On February 2, Park Shin Hye, along with her 'Doctor Slump' co-star Park Hyung Sik from the K-pop boy group ZE:A, made a guest appearance on 'Hyell's Club', a YouTube show hosted by Hyeri from the girl group Girl's Day.

    As the trio engaged in a casual chat over drinks, Hyeri brought up an interesting tidbit from Park Shin Hye's past. "You once harbored dreams of becoming a K-pop star, right? You even started preparing for it," Hyeri probed.

    With a shy nod, Park Shin Hye confirmed, "Yes, that's true. It was a long time ago when I was quite young."

    When quizzed about how her life would have been had she pursued a career in K-pop, Park Shin Hye responded with a hearty laugh and a shake of her head.

    "I would have given it my all, but I don't think I could have handled the mental pressure. It would have been a tough journey," she confessed.

    She further explained, "Being a K-pop star means you're always under scrutiny. You have to be perfect on stage, handle the constant public exposure, and always look your best. It's a lot of pressure."

    She recalled a particular incident when she had to perform on a massive stage. "I remember feeling nauseous. The stage was shaking with everyone moving around. It was during Jang Keun Suk's concert at Tokyo Dome. That experience made me realize how challenging it is. I wonder how K-pop stars manage to do this repeatedly. It's truly commendable," she shared.

    Hyeri, however, felt that Park Shin Hye could have been a successful K-pop star. "I believe you would have been the 'center' of your group," she opined.

    Park Shin Hye, lacking confidence, responded, "Do you really think I could have been the 'center'? I'm not so sure about that…"

    Park Hyung Sik chimed in, "One thing's for sure, you have the eyes of a 'center' K-pop star. Your eyes are incredibly big! Every time we share a scene, I can't help but marvel at how large your eyes are!" His comment left Park Shin Hye in fits of laughter.

  • Fans can't stop swooning over BTS's V showing off cherry blossoms and his toned muscles just 40 days before discharge

    BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.

    On April 30, V posted several new photos on his Instagram story, giving fans a sneak peek into his daily routine.

    Among the photos was a beautiful shot of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the word "cherry blossom" as he expressed his longing for spring.

    He followed up with more photos, sharing how much he wanted to enjoy the season with his fans.

    To make the post even more special, V added background music from BTS member J-Hope's song Sweet Dreams and Design by the American punk band Gustav.

    It turns out that Gustav was grateful for V introducing their music to the world and even received fan comments saying they discovered the band through him.

    In another adorable photo, V posed with CF director Ray J. Yi (Lee Jun Yeob), with flowers in his hair. The director also shared the cute photo, adding the word "flower" to express how happy he was with the moment.

    But it wasn’t all about flowers and beauty—V also gave fans a peek at his workout routine. He proudly showed off his toned arm muscles in a picture, though his face appeared a little thinner.

    This is likely due to his diet, as he’s been working hard to maintain his figure ahead of his discharge. Before enlisting, V weighed 62 kg, and during his service, he reached 86 kg. Now, he’s lost 10 kg and is preparing for his return to the public eye.

    Interestingly, V has been working out at the same place where singer Kim Jong Kook films his popular YouTube channel Jim Jong Kook, sparking fan excitement and hopes that V might make an appearance on the show after he’s discharged.

    As soon as V shared his latest update, his name—"KIM TAEHYUNG"—shot to the top of real-time trending charts worldwide. Fans from all over the globe, including in the U.S., couldn’t get enough of the updates, proving once again the massive impact V has.

    He is set to be discharged from the military on June 10, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.
