Song Hye Kyo is once again showing why she's one of the most beautiful and talented stars in the world!

On April 12th, photos of Song Hye Kyo at a recent brand event were revealed, and they are absolutely jaw-dropping.

In the pictures, the actress is seen posing in a chic floral shirt-style dress, her short haircut making her look even more stunning.

With her delicate neckline and small face, she looked effortlessly gorgeous, radiating goddess-like beauty that caught everyone's attention.

As always, Song Hye Kyo proves that she's more than just a pretty face. She’s an icon. The actress, who made her big debut after winning the grand prize at the 1996 Sun Kyung Smart Model Search, became a K-drama legend with hits like Autumn in My Heart, All In, Full House, The World They Live In, and Descendants of the Sun.

But Song Hye Kyo isn’t stopping there. Recently, she impressed fans worldwide with her role in the Netflix hit The Glory, marking a bold departure from her usual roles with a darker, genre-bending performance.

Now, she’s gearing up for her next big project, a Netflix series titled Slowly but Intensely (tentative title). Set in the 1960s-80s Korean entertainment industry, the series will focus on the struggles and triumphs of individuals fighting for a brighter future.

Song Hye Kyo shared her excitement about the new role, saying, "The character I play, 'Min Ja,' has experienced so much hardship in her life but has built incredible inner strength. She bravely steps into the music industry despite everything, and I can’t wait to show a new side of myself through her."

On top of her acting career, Song Hye Kyo is also making an impact with her work outside of drama. In honor of the 106th anniversary of the Samil Independence Movement, she teamed up with Professor Seo Kyung Deok from Sungshin Women’s University to create a multilingual video about the female independence warrior Park Cha Jeong, which has been shared both in Korea and internationally.

Whether on screen or off, Song Hye Kyo continues to impress and inspire, proving that she’s not just a goddess of beauty but a force to be reckoned with in the entertainment world.

The hit drama Weak Hero 2 is taking over both streaming charts and fans’ hearts—and now it’s bringing massive attention back to the original Naver webtoon Weak Hero.

According to Netflix's Tudum Top 10 update on April 30, Weak Hero 2 pulled in a huge 6.1 million views (based on total watch time divided by full runtime) just three days after its release. It grabbed the #1 spot on the Global TOP 10 Non-English TV Series chart.

That’s not all—right after it dropped, the drama soared to the top of Korea’s TOP 10 Series and even made the TOP 10 charts in 63 countries, including Brazil, France, Mexico, Belgium, Morocco, Greece, Indonesia, and more.

This follows the success of Weak Hero 1, which previously ranked #8 and stayed on the global chart for five weeks straight.

With all eyes on the new season, fans are now rushing to read the original webtoon, leading to a massive jump in popularity.

The webtoon, which first started in May 2018 and wrapped up in November 2023, is famous for its intense storytelling and emotional depth.

It tells the story of Yeon Si Eun, a quiet and seemingly weak student who turns into a top fighter at a violent school—giving fans a unique and gripping coming-of-age story.

After Weak Hero Class 2 aired, many viewers started reading or re-reading the webtoon from beginning to end. As a result, sales of the webtoon have shot up more than 20 times compared to its average monthly sales after completion.

The series has also been turned into printed books, a mobile game, and even emojis, and has been exported to 9 countries, including North America.

When the first season of the drama premiered on Wavve in 2022, it held 45% of the platform’s total viewing share, proving its wide appeal.

Fans are now hoping for a new sequel season of the webtoon, and the franchise is being praised as a perfect example of how a strong original story can keep growing through great adaptations.
