Actors Ryu Jun Yeol and Shin Hyun Been are set to star in director Yeon Sang-ho's new movie, 'Revelation'.

After the success of 'Hellbound', Netflix is partnering again with director Yeon Sang-ho and writer Choi Gyu-seok to bring 'Revelation' to life.

'Revelation' tells the story of a pastor who believes it's his divine mission to punish the person behind a missing persons case and a detective haunted by visions of her dead younger sister while investigating the same case.

The film is based on a webtoon by Choi Gyu-seok, released in 2022.

Ryu Jun Yeol will play 'Min-chan', a pastor who runs a small-town church. He gets a revelation that 'Yang-rae', a church visitor, is the kidnapper of his son, leading him to seek justice.

Ryu Jun Yeol is expected to deliver a powerful performance as 'Min-chan', torn between faith and reality.

Shin Hyun Been will play 'Yeon-hee', a detective who suspects 'Yang-rae' and pursues the mysterious pastor 'Min-chan'. 'Yeon-hee' is haunted by visions of her younger sister who died in a tragic crime. Shin Hyun Been's portrayal of 'Yeon-hee' is anticipated to bring intense drama to the film.

A notable collaboration is happening as well. Alfonso Cuarón, the renowned Mexican director of 'Gravity' and the award-winning 'Roma', will join 'Revelation' as an executive producer.

Director Yeon Sang-ho shared, "Alfonso Cuarón, known for 'Children of Men' and 'Gravity', has been a huge inspiration to me. Working with him on 'Revelation' is thrilling, and I have high hopes for our collaboration."

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.
