Actress Han Ji Min recently had an interesting experience at an Australian airport security checkpoint.

On April 12th, an entertaining video was shared on her agency's channel. The video featured Han Ji Min, who is currently serving as an ambassador for Australia, preparing for her second shoot in the country.

In the video, Han Ji Min is seen packing for her trip to Brisbane, Australia, where her elder sister resides, and then heading to Melbourne, the primary location for her shoot.

"I'm heading to Australia tomorrow after quite some time. I'm scheduled for a second shoot as the Australian ambassador. I plan to catch up with my nieces and sister a week earlier than the previous shoot," she shared, munching on her favorite tteokbokki while packing.

Despite her excitement, Han Ji Min admitted that packing wasn't her favorite activity. "Packing can be such a hassle," she chuckled, "I usually end up packing everything the night before." She also expressed her anticipation for the trip, "Melbourne has a European vibe and it's stunning. It might feel like a mini vacation."

She also shared her skincare routine and packing essentials. "I once tried tanning but gave up after getting blemishes," she confessed.

"When I pack, the most important thing for me is my pajamas," she added, revealing that she usually packs light items like sneakers, slippers, hats, and t-shirts.

As for her skincare routine, she said, "All you need is face oil and cream. I bring three mask packs, and if I use all of them, it means I've done a good job," sparking curiosity about her effortless skincare routine.

After spending a joyful week with her nieces Roma and Roha at her sister's house, she moved to Melbourne to meet the staff arriving from Korea.

At the airport, Han Ji Min shared a funny incident with the Korean staff. "Didn't you get caught at the airport security checkpoint?" she asked. "When I entered the country, I brought my sister's rice cooker and blanket box, so I got caught. I explained that it's a rice cooker and a blanket, and they directed me to another area. When I went there, they scanned everything."

She continued, "I used to write 'freelancer' in the job section, but these days I write 'actor.' The airport staff were curious and asked, 'Where do you appear?' 'Are you on Netflix?' They asked, 'Did you appear in Squid Game?' and I made a sad face."

She then mentioned her friend Park Hae Soo, the lead actor of 'Squid Game' and a colleague from the same agency, and laughed.

Han Ji Min concluded, "These days, wherever I go, I watch a lot of Korean dramas and movies," reflecting the growing popularity of Korean K-content.

In other news, Han Ji Min is set to star alongside Lee Jun Hyuk in the upcoming SBS drama 'Greetings'.

Choi Si Hoon, known from Single’s Inferno and newlywed husband of singer Ailee, is facing backlash after being linked to a controversy from Wavve’s queer reality show ToGetHer.

Fans discovered that Choi is allegedly the CEO of the influencer agency representing Ri Won, a cast member now at the center of a growing scandal.

The situation started when castmate Han Gyeol spoke up, claiming Ri Won once suggested an overseas trip that felt more like a shady meeting than a casual hangout.

“I thought it was a fun vacation invite at first,” Han Gyeol said, “but when they started talking about meals and date-like things, I realized something was wrong. It felt like an inappropriate setup.”
Han Gyeol added, “Using someone’s sexuality as a shield for suspicious actions is not okay in this industry.”

Ri Won responded by saying it was all a misunderstanding and that the trip was mentioned casually during a conversation about food. “We joked about going to that country after talking about food,” Ri Won said.

However, things got more intense when Ri Won admitted to having a past as a 'beotbang' (adult streaming) BJ. “I know I’m not trustworthy right now, and I appeared on TV while hiding my past. That’s why I shared some proof—I was desperate,” Ri Won explained.

Ri Won also shared a blurred message from another cast member that accused them of fake dating and lying about knowing someone from Billboard. “You said you’d introduce me to a Billboard contact. Then give me their name and title,” the message read. “You just keep switching your targets.”

Ri Won replied, “He’s the team leader at Billboard Korea and also my influencer agency CEO.”
This comment led online users to dig deeper—and some claimed the CEO Ri Won mentioned is none other than Choi Si Hoon, Ailee’s husband.

Currently on his honeymoon with Ailee, Choi is now getting unwanted attention. Some netizens brought up his alleged past as an adult BJ and now, his possible involvement in this controversy.

On Ailee’s Instagram post from April 30, one fan wrote, “Unnie, sorry to bother you during your honeymoon, but please search Choi Si Hoon’s name. A female BJ said she’s signed to his company, and he supposedly arranged a meeting for her with a just-turned 19-year-old girl.”

As the issue grew, Ri Won spoke out again on May 1 to calm things down. “The person I mentioned in the messages was just someone who gave me advice,” Ri Won clarified. “He’s not my agency CEO, like some people assumed. I thought he could help with music, but he never made any business offer.”

Ri Won ended by saying, “I’m sorry for causing any confusion and discomfort to others with my personal remarks.”

So far, Choi Si Hoon and Ailee have not made public statements about the situation.
