• Kang Eun Bi gets emotional over empty seats at her wedding after 17-year secret relationship with Byeon Jun Pil: “Did I live my life wrong?”

    Actors Kang Eun Bi and Byeon Jun Pil are the newest couple to join TV CHOSUN's reality documentary show “Lovers of Joseon.” In the episode airing on May 5 at 10 p.m. KST, viewers will see their real-life wedding and the honest emotions behind it.

    Kang Eun Bi, who hasn't been active in the entertainment industry for a while, makes her first appearance and says, “It’s been such a long time since I greeted everyone.” She then introduces her husband, Byeon Jun Pil, revealing that they’ve been in a relationship for 17 years.

    Byeon Jun Pil, who was once known for his looks online, shares, “It’s my first time at a broadcasting station. I’m really nervous.” The couple gives off a sweet and heartwarming vibe, showing their deep connection.

    However, Kang Eun Bi gets honest and emotional about the difficult moments leading up to the wedding. She confesses, “To be honest, I hadn’t stayed in touch with people in the entertainment world. I even got rid of my phone and lost all my contacts.” Because of this, she couldn’t even personally tell her friends that she was getting married—even after the news broke.

    Their actual wedding day footage will be aired in the episode. In the video, heavy rain pours down outside the window, and Byeon Jun Pil looks worried. Comedian Kim Ji Min, watching the footage, comments, “When it rains, guests might have a hard time getting here.”

    As the clock ticks down—only 20 minutes left until the ceremony—no guests had arrived yet. The couple becomes visibly anxious. Kang Eun Bi stares at her phone and asks, “Do people usually arrive this late?” She then adds with tears in her voice, “I can’t relax. I feel so anxious. I thought, ‘Did I live my life the wrong way?’ ‘Did I do something bad in life?’” sharing her deep and raw feelings.

    The touching and emotional wedding of Kang Eun Bi and Byeon Jun Pil will be revealed in full during the next episode of Lovers of Joseon.

  • TWICE’s Jihyo buys a 4 billion won building in her 20s, proving she's one of the youngest wealthy stars

    TWICE’s Jihyo has made headlines after purchasing a building worth a staggering 4 billion won in her 20s.

    On May 2, Herald Economy reported that Jihyo bought a building in Seongdong-gu, Seongsu-dong 2-ga, Seoul, in early March of last year.

    By the end of that month, she had completed the full payment and transferred ownership, with no mortgage attached, suggesting that the property was purchased entirely with cash.

    Just a month after the purchase, Jihyo registered as a housing rental business operator and completed the registration for private rental housing.

    As a housing rental business operator, she is eligible for tax benefits, such as reduced acquisition tax. However, she is also subject to certain regulations, including a 5% cap on rent increases, compliance with rental periods, and mandatory insurance for tenant deposits.

    The building, which was built in 1986, has a land area of 152㎡ (45.98 pyeong) and a total floor area of 330.21㎡ (99.89 pyeong). It includes one basement level and three floors above ground.

    The property is situated in Seongsu Strategic Redevelopment Zone 2, an area currently undergoing redevelopment.

    Given the area's future potential, it is believed that Jihyo's investment is more focused on the property's long-term value rather than immediate rental income.
