Aespa performs 'Rich Man' on The Jennifer Hudson Show

-I think they did well this time. You can definitely feel the live energy.

-They did really well, but honestly, I'm not really into the song and choreography this time. I prefer something like 'Whiplash.'

-Whoa... I just watched this randomly... Aespa sings so well. I think I'm going to become a fanㅋㅋ

-Is Aespa targeting the U.S. market too?? They seem to be working so hard on their U.S. promotions.

-This is way better than I expected, though?? I was really disappointed with their last stage, so I was surprised by how good this one is.

-What's with the song, though...? It doesn't suit the title at all... Why did they sing it like that?

-Oh... There's a huge difference between having backup dancers vs not. having them.

-They did well... They're a group that always does well anyway.

-They sound amazing. Why did their agency make them lipsync all this time?

-The stage performance is so much better when they sing live.

-They're so good. Please keep singing live.

-Now this is Aespa. I hope they show this side of themselves more often in the future.

-They're doing well enough... Seems like so many people want to see them fail.

-People complain if they sing live and complain if they don't~

-The lyrics are so embarrassingㅠㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

It's getting mixed reactions in South Korea, but receiving a lot of praise overseas. It recently won the People's Choice Award at the Toronto International Film Festival.

-Oh... Now I'm even more curious.

-It seems like Koreans really care whether the story makes sense or not... But in movies, that's not important at al. I personally really enjoyed watching this movie, that's why I was so confused seeing the reviews.

-Why are Korean and international reviews so different?

-I personally find this movie very good.

-It wasn't bad, but it got a little boring halfway.

-I liked all of Park Chanwook's movies, but this one wasn't for me.

-I didn't really like 'Decision to Leave,' but I find 'No Other Choice' was so good. I liked the shock the ending gave me.

-International audiences seem to love well-made black comedies. I guess I'll have to watch it myself to judge.

-Everyone around me says it's really good, so I'm looking forward to it.

-I got so sleepy watching this...

-I like this movie, but the ending was so old-fashioned.

-I enjoyed watching this movie!!!!! Everyone stop fighting!!!!

-The movie was really well-made, and the acting was good. I enjoyed watching it. But I feel like it didn't fit with Korean sentiment, and in the end I just found the story really unpleasant.

-Seems like Koreans just can't stand being bored.

-Does it not fit with our country's sentiment?

Fandom who caused major nuisance during the live recording of 'The Seasons'

 

Hul... DAY6's fans, MyDay, rushed out the studio even when the filming of 'The Seasons' wasn't over yet just because their artist's stage ended. The pre-MC told them it was disrespectful and asked them to sit down, but they all left anyway. That is unbelievable. It was so rude to the next guests who were about to perform... They've completely thrown their manners out the window.


Why do other guests and their fans have to feel like this when they came to 'The Seasons' to have a good time? Seriouslyㅜㅜㅜㅜ I'm so fed up. It's over now right? For real. I hope I never have to see them again.



During the photo time, a staff member had to repeatedly told a specific person 4-5 times not to tae pictures with their huge camera. But she ignored and kept taking pictures anyway. I don't know if this happened with other artists, but this disruption only happened during one specific artist's photo time.

If something like this happens, the show might not invite the artist again in the future... Why would someone choose to act that way?

The ridiculous part is, this wasn't even YoungK's comeback week. His appearance was announced suddenly today. That means those fans bought tickets at inflated prices from resellers. And after doing that, they left the venue half-empty. What does that make WOODZ, Lee Joonyoung, and Shin Seunghoon then?


That artist left around 10.40 PM. That's why his fans bolted as soon as his stage ended. 


I went to 'The Seasons' yesterday and I kept sighing out of frustration

It might be just certain fans, but the person next to me was like that. She kept bumping into me with her arms, ignored staff telling her to put her camera away, fumbling around with her phone, and bumping into me again. I went with a family member and seriously thought, "How can someone be this rude?" Other people showed discomfort because of this one person. On a separate note, YoungK was amazing. I think I'm about to be a fan.


Since so many people are claiming that other fandoms left too, I'm writing this along with a picture of my admission ticket as a proof that I was there. The order was Shin Seunghoon - WOODZ - YoungK - Lee Joonyoung. Yes, some people did leave after WOODZ's turn. But for YoungK, it was so bad that everyone who applied for a ticket yesterday filled the venue all the way to the stairways. But once YoungK was done, so many people left that even those who were sitting on the stairs could move down and sit in actual chairs. That's how many left all at once. It was so embarrassing for the next guest. The pre-MC had to keep trying to control the crowd and asking people to fill the empty seats, even mentioning the fandom name and telling them not to leave.

-That fandom has no manners. No other idol fandoms have ever behaved like that on this show until now.

-Yeah, the show definitely won't invite him back again.

-I've never seen anyone leave during the filming of 'The Seasons' before... Oh my goodness...

-Ah... That is so annoying.

-They're basically ruining their artist's reputationㅋ

-That fandom wasn't like this before. They've gotten a bit weird after the group gained popularity.

-I think I've heard something about that fandom before the group got popular. Guess it's still happening.

-YoungK, WOODZ, Shin Seunghoon... All my favorite singers were in the lineup... I'm so jealous of the people who went...

-Whoa... That's something I could never have imaged ofㄷㄷ

-If the fandom keeps doing that, the show is less likely to invite him again in the future. I have never seen people leaving the venue even when the pre-MV asked them to stay.

-What kind of behavior is this?;;;;;

-Usually, fans behave better out of consideration for their artists. Why are they acting like this?

-As a fellow MyDay, I'm truly ashamed... Do they think they're the only one who gets to use the fandom name?

-I think as the fandom grew, weird people joined in... This reminds me of Kang Daniel's fandom back in the day. However, I see some people using this as an excuse to bash the fandom and the artist.

-Whoa... What an inconsiderate fandom. If I were the artist, I'd be so embarrassed.

Lee Chaemin receives 30 scripts for next project ... Hits jackpot with 'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty'

 

https://m.entertain.naver.com/home/article/468/0001179848

Love calls are pouring in for Lee Chaemin, who showcased an outstanding performance in 'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty.'

In the drama, Lee Chaemin played the role of Lee Heon, a tyrant with an absolute sense of taste, and drove the drama's popularity by effortlessly navigating between romance and comedy. Despite being cast in just a month before filming began, he perfectly immersed himself in the character, mastering everything from horseback riding, archery, action scenes, and even traditional dance in a short period of time. Im Yoona praised him, saying, "Even with so little time to prepare, he came fully equipped. It felt like he was Lee Heon himself." Director Jang Taeyoo also expressed his trust, saying, "He prepared so thoroughly that he was always ready to film."

Above all, the industry is showing keen interest in Lee Chaemin's next move. According to an insider, it is rumored that as 'Bon Appétit, Your Majest' neared its finale, Lee Chaemin has already received around 30 scripts for upcoming projects. In other words, he has quickly become the 'one-pick' of Kora's film industry and drama producers.

You don't have to be sad about saying goodbye to Lee Chaemin from 'Bon Appétit, Your Majesty' which is set to end this week. He will return later in Netflix's original series 'Cashero' in the second half of the year.

-I quit watching #1 and #2. I haven't watched #3 yet, but it has a lot of good reviews so I'm currently starting to watch it. I haven't watched #4.

-You peeked at my Netflix's watch list, didn't you?

-I haven't watched #1 and #2, currently watching #3, and started watching #4 but dropped it halfway...

-I totally agree with #1ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I want to watch it, but at the same time, I don't want toㅜㅜ

-Same. I don't like depressing dramas, so I can't bring myself to watch these dramas.

-I've only watched #1, but I know exactly what the OP means. It took me forever to start, but once I did, I binged it straight through. But still, I could never rewatch it.

-This is basically a list of dramas that are fun but not fun.

-For real... I ended up dropping all of them. So many people call #1 the best drama of their life, but honestly, I couldn't focus after about 2 and a half episodes.

-I don't watch them because they look boring. Especially #1 and #2, I just hate it.

-I tried 3 times before I finally made it through #1. Honestly, it's the best drama ever.

-Wow... The OP's taste is really similar to mine.

-Haven't watched any of these, and I don't find them interesting to watch.

-I've watched #1, #2, and #3. I dropped #4 halfway. I also dropped #1 halfway the first time I watched it, but then I continued and finished it later.

-Add 'When Life Gives You Tangerines' to this list. I haven't watched any of these dramas.
