'Teacher' Kim Taeri explodes at 'Assistant Teacher' Choi Hyunwook's attitude ... "There wasn't a single part I was satisfied with"

In this episode, the two headed out for an outdoor class on the third day of class, but things didn't go smoothly.

The 'main teacher' Kim Taeri asked 'assistant teacher' Choi Hyunwook to lead a 'warm-up recreation' session as the first period of the outdoor class. Choi Hyunwook appeared to begin the warm-up, but faced problems from the start and couldn't continue.

Watching this, Kim Taeri helped the confused Choi Hyunwook by saying, "Looks like the music isn't working, so let's start without it!" and redirected the children's attention to save the situation.

The warm-up game began, but because the instructions were not clear, the children couldn't focus on the game. Seeing this, Kim Taeri tried to raise the energy by stepping in to lead the game instead of Choi Hyunwook.

After finishing the somewhat disappointing outdoor class and sending the children home, the two gathered again. Reflecting on the class, Kim Taeri said, "We need something that can grab their focus at the beginning. The warm-up time is really important, so I want you to prepare better."

Choi Hyunwook replied, "If there's nothing to do until tomorrow's class, I was planning to drive 10 minutes away and go for a run." Kim Taeri responded in disbelief, "What about preparing for class?"

While they disagreed on how to prepare the class, Kim Taeri brought up the disappointing outdoor class and pointed out, "There wasn't a single part of what you did that I'm 100% satisfied with."

Choi Hyunwook responded, "How can I satisfy you 100%? I didn't prepare as much as you did, but I think I did what I needed to do here," expressing his frustration as their disagreement intensified, drawing sympathy from viewers.

COMMENTS:

-I think it was a mistake to put two people together who are originally too comfortable with each other.

-I’ve thought this before, but maybe it’s better for her to just quietly focus on acting.

-This show doesn't seem to fit Kim Taeri's personality. I understand she feels pressured because the show literally has her name on it (NB: the literal translation of the show title is 'Taeri-Ssaem After Class'), but the way she kept nitpicking Choi Hyunwook is so off-putting.

-Kim Taeri is an amazing actress, but I always feel disappointed whenever I hear about her private life. Starring in variety shows seem to highlight those negative parts of her.

-This is a total miscasting. It was so uncomfortable to watch.

-Did the production team not give them a clear direction or a guide? It feels like they were filming two completely different shows;;

-I don't even like Choi Hyunwook that much, but this seems a bit over the top..ㅠ

-Kim Taeri does not suit variety shows at all. I was really surprised to see how sensitive she is.

-Maybe she's just a perfectionist...?

-Even watching the short clips suffocate me.

-Aren't variety shows supposed to be fun to watch? I think the viewers will feel uncomfortable watching this.

Byun Yohan (40) and SNSD's Tiffany (37) had reportedly completed their marriage registration and become legally married. A wedding photo of the couple recently went viral online. However, it was later confirmed that the image was created by AI.

On the 1st, Byun Yohan's agency, TEAMHOPE, stated, "The wedding photo that is currently spreading online was never actually taken."

Recently, post titled 'Byun Yohan and Tiffany's wedding photo' spread widely across online communities and social media platforms.

The post included a photo of Byun Yohan wearing a pink suit and Tiffany in a matching pink wedding dress, smiling brightly while holding a bouquet. On both sides of the couple, SNSD's members were seen dressed in gowns, looking at the bride and groom to celebrate.

Many netizens congratulated Byun Yohan and Tiffany on their marriage, while some suspected it was a fake image.

As the photo was revealed to be created by AI, some people reacted with surprise and fear at how realistic AI technology has become.

Meanwhile, Byun Yohan and Tiffany gained attention last December as they announced they were in a relationship with marriage in mind.

The two reportedly met while starring together in the Disney+ original series 'Uncle Samsik' and later became a couple.

After two months of dating publicly, they completed their marriage registration on the 27th of last month and became legally married.

At the time, TEAMHOPE stated, "Byun Yohan and Tiffany Young have completed their marriage registration based on deep trust and love for each other. As they begin a new journey in life, they will remember the support and love they have received and repay it by showing a more mature side of themselves."

The date for their wedding ceremony hasn't been finalized yet. It is reported that they are considering a small, simple wedding ceremony.

Wendy reveals she gained 15kg from binge eating after experiencing racism ... "Even my mom didn't recognize me"

SOURCE: 웬디, 인종차별 당한 뒤 폭식으로 15kg 증량…"母도 못 알아봐" (고은언니)

On the 26th, a video titled 'Shocking things Wendy faced while studying abroad in the U.S: from being bullied to becoming the top student,' was posted to Youtube. Wendy appeared as a guest and talked about various topics. 

On this day, Wendy revealed that she went to study in Canada when she was in 5th grade. She recalled, "I saw how much brighter my older sister became after coming back from studying in Canada, so I told my parents I wanted to go too."

However, reality was not easy. She shared, "I went as soon as I started 5th grade, but I couldn't speak English at all. I wast staying at a foreigner's homestay and I couldn't understand a single word when someone spoke to me. On the very first day, I said I wanted to go back to South Korea." She added, "In 2005, there were no Asians at all, so it was hard. But after a month, I started to speak and understand English little by little. Even when I couldn't fully communicate, school became fun."

Two or three years later, she had another difficult time after transferring from Brockville to Toronto. She said, "The English level there was different, the kids were very chic and acted like snobs. I went to a Catholic school and the students there were very arrogant. There were many different kinds of friends from different races, so I couldn't fit in. That's when the racism started. I ended up eating my lunch in the bathroom because no one would include me."

The discrimination was very blatant. She shared, "When I asked them, 'Can I play with you? Can I play soccer with you all?' they would say, 'No! You're Korean.' I went to the teacher and said, 'They were being racist to me,' but the teacher just said, 'You two go out and talk it out.' Even when the teacher gave us time to talk, they never apologized. I spent a lot of time alone, cried in the lockers room everyday, and ate alone in the bathroom. I felt like school life was going to be really hard."

Eventually, she changed her direction, saying, "So, instead of focusing on studying, I became busy trying to make friends. I hung out with the kids who played the most and naturally, my style changed. In seventh grade, I bleached half of my hair, wore skull tie and suits. It was kind of strange. At that time, I did nothing but eat. I gained over 10 kg in one year."

Eventually, she gained 15kg. She said, "I went to the airport to meet my mom and sister after gaining 15kg. When I got off the plane, they didn't recognize me. They were like, 'What happened to you?' 'Why did you become like this?'"

Soyou after losing weight from 68kg to 49kg, dramatically changed face shape ... "People ask why I don't sue over plastic surgery rumors"

SOURCE: 소유, 68→49kg 감량 후 확 달라진 얼굴형 "성형논란에 왜 고소 안하냐고" ('소유기')

On the 26th, a video titled, 'You're asking Soyou what kind of self-care she does? Let me tell you everything," was posted to her Youtube channel 'SOYUGI.'

On this day, Soyou said, "A lot of people have been asking me how do I take care of my skin and boy," and went on to reveal her self-care methods.

She explained that she started focusing on self-care in October 2024, saying, "I was going to a dermatology clinic when they told me this. Since I was 25, I have consistently received a lifting treatment once a year," adding, "Since early last year, I've been getting skin treatments once a month. I always get the toning treatment."

She continued, "After I lost weight, there were rumors that I had plastic surgery. At the time, my doctor even asked, 'Why don't you sue them?'" She then laughed, "The doctor sees my face once a month, so she knows the whole story (of how my face has changed)."

Regarding how her face shape changed, Soyou shared, "I currently weigh 49kg. My heaviest weight before diet was 68kg." She added with a laugh, "Everyone thinks I lost about 10kg, but actually, I lost 20kg. If you lose that much, would your face shape change or not?"

She explained, "The reason why I didn't tell people that I weighed 68kg was because I felt so ashamed of myself." She added, "I was shocked and worked really hard to lose weight. Last April, I was stuck between 54kg and 56kg, I couldn't lose more. After thinking about it, I decided to reduce my muscle mass and did more cardio. As my muscle mass start decreasing, my weight finally started to go down." She also noted, "In the past, I can lose weight in whichever part I wanted. But now, consistent care is a must," as she recommended beauty devices.

Bold kiss scene ... Moon Sangmin: "Byun Yohan came up with the idea"

SOURCE: 파격 동성 키스신이라더니…문상민 "변요한이 먼저 아이디어 줘" ('파반느')[인터뷰 ①]

Moon Sangmin shared the story behind the kiss scene in the movie 'Pavane.'

Recently, we met and talked with Moon Sangmin, who starred in Netflix's movie 'Pavane,' at a cafe in Samcheong-dong, Seoul.

Pavane is a movie about three people who had closed off their hearts, but become a light for each other, as they face life and love. In the movie, Moon Sangmin plays as Gyeong-rok, a young man who gave up his dream of becoming a dancer to live a realistic life.

On this day, Moon Sangmin shared the story behind his kiss scene with Byun Yohan. The scene had already drawn attention during the pre-release. Regarding this, Moon Sangmin laughed and said, "The kiss scene with Yohan-ie hyung was not my idea."

He said, "Hyung came up with the idea. It was a way to clearly end the scene in that atmosphere. I wondered how it would've turned out if it hadn't been Yohan Sunbae," and added, "So, I was very grateful."

He also mentioned the kiss scene with Go Ahsung, who plays as his girlfriend in the movie. Moon Sangmin explained, "The kiss with Mijeong (Go Ahsung) was nice because it felt clumsy. It felt different from scenes I've seen in other dramas," and added, "I think it was a kiss that happened because Gyeong-rok's feelings rushed ahead."

He added, "It wasn't just about waiting for the act of a kiss, but about how he waited a long time for the moment he could meet Mijeong and connect with her emotionally. That's why I think it felt even more clumsy. It was a scene that came from genuine emotion."

Moon Sangmin added that during filming, he thought he did the kiss scene skillfully, but then admitted, "When I watched the movie, it looked much clumsier than I expected.

Ex-wife: "I will reveal the members who engaged in prostitution with him" ... Dongho: "Playing victim, get a grip"

U-KISS' ex-member Shin Dongho responded to more allegations from his ex-wife, A, saying, "If you have something to say, file a lawsuit and speak through a lawyer."

On the 26th, Dongho wrote on his social media, saying, "I'm really sorry, but you were the one who first started posting on Instagram using our son's account. So why are you playing victim, trying to protect your family from me?"

He continued, "I think you're under a big misunderstanding. Who are you and I to be talking about giving interviews and revealing everything? We're just ordinary people. Even if I used to be a celebrity, no one is that curious about our family history, yet you're bringing it out into the public."

Dongho added, "Don't act like you're the victim, saying it's all for the sake of our son. If you have something to say, file a lawsuit and speak through a lawyer. Don't forget that you're the one who started this whole mess. I hope you come back to your senses, even though it may already be too late to turn back."

Previously, A had claimed on social media that Dongho's affair was the main reason for their divorce, that he badmouthed her in front of their child, and that he failed to pay child support properly.

In response, Dongho said, "Go ahead and make this public. Reporters, please share this." He then added, "People are not even that interested in me anymore. I'm just an ordinary person who quit the entertainment industry almost 10 years ago. Whether there would be articles or not, I couldn't even care less. Go ahead and do whatever yo want."

Later, A stated, "Since you say everything is a lie, let's go all the way until the end. In fact, please do sue me," adding, "I will even reveal the names of the members who engaged in prostitution with Dongho." Along with this, she also shared screenshots of message conversation with a contact saved as 'Dong-ble bee' making inappropriate remarks, and further claimed that Dongho had said he would make their son engage in prostitution.

Meanwhile, Dongho debuted with U-KISS in 2018. In 2013, he went on a hiatus from the entertainment industry and left the group. In 2015, he married a non-celebrity woman one year older than him. They had a son the following year, but then got divorced after about three years of marriage.
