    The original film, helmed by Giddens Ko and released in Korea in 2012, won over audiences with its touching portrayal of young love and first romance.

    The narrative revolves around a school troublemaker, Ko Ching-teng, and an honor student, Shen Chia-yi, whose relationship blossoms from classmates to something deeper over time.

    Dahyun will step into the shoes of the honor student, a character universally admired and initially overseen by her peers, echoing Shen Chia-yi from the original.

    This role signifies a major milestone in Dahyun’s acting journey, as she embraces a character adored by fans of the original film.

    This casting news follows closely on the heels of Dahyun’s acting debut announcement in the independent feature film “Sprint,” where she shares screen space with Ha Seok-jin and Lee Sin-young.

    In “Sprint,” she takes on the challenging role of an athlete, adding a sports drama to her expanding acting repertoire.

    Excitement around Dahyun’s shift from K-pop idol to actress is mounting as she gears up to take on this new role in a genre adored by fans across Asia.

    With her acting debut in “Sprint” and now the lead in a youth romance, Dahyun is fast emerging as a significant figure in the film industry.

  • 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.
