• Kim Go Eun's On Way of Expressing Love: "I Do My Best to Avoid Regrets and I Set Aside My Pride"

    Actress Kim Go Eun has opened up about her approach to love, saying she loves without regrets. On the 25th, fashion magazine Elle shared a photoshoot featuring Kim Go Eun and Noh Sang Hyun, highlighting their cool and warm chemistry as they play close friends in the upcoming film The Love Law of the Big City.

    In an interview after the shoot, Kim Go Eun, who plays Jae Hee, expressed her feelings about the film. She said, “It’s a story that doesn’t force anything. It casually presents, ‘There are people with these kinds of stories.’ It reflects concerns that anyone has experienced or could experience, making it special yet ordinary.”

    Talking about her co-star Noh Sang Hyun, who plays Heung Soo, she shared, “I was quite shy when I first met him. He appears strong on the outside, but once you get close, he’s playful and often smiles like a child. That contrast is very attractive. We often filmed in a home environment, asking each other questions and having conversations during our performances. I still remember those times vividly.”

    When asked about her unique approach to love, Kim Go Eun explained, “It’s simply sincerity. I always try to engage in any relationship without regrets. The ‘between’ can end at any time, and I don’t think how long it lasts is important. I don’t want to have regrets, so I always do my best and tend not to be prideful to avoid misunderstandings or unnecessary issues.”

    Noh Sang Hyun shared why he was excited to join this project, saying, “The script was honest and relatable, so I quickly got immersed in it. Heung Soo keeps his distance from the world and doesn’t easily let others in, which is something I can relate to. I could approach him with a playful imagination.”

    On working with Kim Go Eun, he said, “I learned a lot of good stories from her as an actor and as a person. I knew she was a talented actress who worked hard endlessly, but experiencing it firsthand made me resonate even more with that. She’s a caring and thoughtful person, but she also has a delicate side.”

    When it comes to love, Noh Sang Hyun stated, “I try to be as honest as possible. I can’t keep things bottled up. If I brush aside things that bother me, it feels like I’m putting off a time bomb that will eventually explode. I believe that for a healthy relationship, we should be as honest as possible with each other while being polite.”

    Meanwhile, The Love Law of the Big City tells the unique love story of Jae Hee, a free spirit who doesn’t care about societal norms, and Heung Soo, who prefers to keep his distance from the world. The film will be released on October 1st.

  • Choi Si Hoon dragged into queer dating show drama—netizens claim he’s the shady CEO, fans beg Ailee to check

    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.
