• Jeon So Min is Back After a Break! Returning to Acting with New Movie 'Veranda'

    Actress Jeon So Min is making her comeback to acting after taking a break from 'Running Man.'

    Jeon So Min finished filming her new movie 'Veranda' (directed by Jo Sung-won) on July 13. The 'Veranda' team announced, "We started filming on June 10 and wrapped up on July 13 after 21 shooting days."

    'Veranda' is a romantic thriller about Hayeon (played by Jeon So Min), who has a happy family but starts to suspect someone is spying on her from a nearby apartment. As things go wrong, she uncovers hidden secrets. The film mixes familiar settings with intense suspense.

    Jeon So Min's return with 'Veranda' is special because it's her first acting role in about two years since the 2022 drama 'Cleaning Up' and the movie '2037.' During her break from acting, she appeared in variety shows like tvN's 'Skip' and SBS's 'Running Man' with Yoo Jae Seok.

    Last November, she surprised fans by leaving 'Running Man,' where she had been a regular member for seven years. Her agency, King Kong by Starship, said she needed a break to recharge for future acting projects. 'Veranda' marks her fresh start.

    In 'Veranda,' Jeon So Min plays Hayeon, who is happy with her husband Woojae (played by Ha Soo Ho) and son but gets shaken by misfortune and suspicion, hinting at a powerful performance.

    Ha Soo Ho plays her husband Woojae, and Ji Seung-hyun plays Hyun-woo, a man who finds hope after losing his family and meeting Hayeon.

    'Veranda' is also the first film directed by Jo Sung-won, who has worked as an art director and set designer for notable Korean films like 'The Battleship Island,' 'Svaha: The Sixth Finger,' 'Peninsula,' and 'Thirst.' His work promises a visually stunning film.

    Director Jo Sung-won said, "We aimed to create a work with unique fun and emotions. All the actors brought great energy and expressed their characters perfectly. Viewers will see new sides of the actors in 'Veranda.' We will continue to do our best in post-production."

    'Veranda' is set to be released in theaters in 2025.

  • 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.
