• BLACKPINK's Jisoo and Actor Jung Hae In Share Adorable Friendship Moments

    BLACKPINK's Jisoo and actor Jung Hae In are giving fans major friendship goals!

    On May 6, Jisoo shared a collage of photos on her Instagram Story, featuring a support truck plastered with her face and close-up images of a croffle and stickers.

    The actor left a heartfelt message for everyone on set, expressing his support for Jisoo’s upcoming K-Drama, Influenza.

    "Everyone, take care of your health while filming. I support Influenza. Sincerely, Jung Hae In," the actor wrote.

    Jisoo responded with a teary-eyed emoji, expressing that the croffle was delicious. A croffle, a hybrid between a croissant and a waffle, is an uncommon snack to see in a support truck as most come with coffee, Korean street food, or the like.

    She ended her short message by saying, "Protect Yeong Joo," referring to the name of her character in Influenza.

    She used the word "Soo Ho," which means "protect" in Korean and is also the name of Jung Hae In’s character in Snowdrop.

    Fans were understandably ecstatic to see the two interacting in 2024 and expressed their hopes to see them together in a new drama one day.

    Jisoo and Jung Hae In were co-stars in JTBC‘s highly-anticipated drama Snowdrop, which aired from December 2021 to January 2022. Set in 1987, it followed a bloody Im Soo Ho (Jung Hae In) who was saved by university student Eun Young Ro (Jisoo).

    Since then, the two have supported each other in various ways, such as the actor attending the BORN PINK concert in Seoul.

    Jisoo is currently playing the female lead in Coupang Play‘s Influenza alongside Park Jung Min. It follows the story of a couple who broke up trying to keep themselves safe from a horde of zombies.

    As the anticipation builds, fans are eagerly awaiting more updates from Jisoo and Jung Hae In as they continue to captivate audiences with their remarkable performances and adorable off-screen moments.

  • Hwanhee’s Agency Hits Back Against Shocking Claims of Favoritism on ‘King of Singers Season 2’—Vows to Defend His Reputation

    Hwanhee's agency, BT Entertainment, is firing back after serious fairness allegations were raised regarding the popular show ‘King of Singers Season 2’. They’ve denied all accusations and promised strong legal action for defamation.

    On February 5th, the agency issued a statement through their official fan cafe, saying, “We want to correct the false claims.”

    They explained that Hwanhee was initially approached to join the show in August 2024 by the production team. However, after checking with the event planning company, Dion Communication, they confirmed Hwanhee had no connection to the show or any related performances.

    Despite this, the agency pointed out that certain media outlets published unverified articles, wrongly suggesting that Hwanhee’s involvement could compromise the fairness of the program.

    BT Entertainment was quick to defend their artist, stressing the damage done to both Hwanhee's reputation and the agency itself due to these false claims. They added, "This has caused great harm to Hwanhee, who joined the program after careful consideration."

    The statement didn’t stop there. BT Entertainment made it clear that they won’t stand for any further defamation. They said, “We are taking legal action against these baseless reports” and emphasized their commitment to protecting Hwanhee from any further harm.

    They also reassured their fans, stating, “We will take swift action against any future misinformation to avoid any further harm to Hwanhee and his supporters.”

    This controversy started after a media outlet raised concerns on January 23rd about Hwanhee’s participation in the show. The report claimed that BT Entertainment’s CEO, who is also a director at Dion Communication, had invested 1.1 billion KRW in the ‘King of Singers Season 2’ concert, leading to suspicions of favoritism towards certain contestants.

    In the meantime, ‘King of Singers Season 2’ continues its intense competition, with Hwanhee making it to the semifinals. Fans are watching closely as he currently holds 1st place in the first round of the semifinals, cementing his position as a strong contender to represent Korea in the Korea-Japan King of Kings battle.
