Report says 'Celebrity A,' not Kim Soo-hyun, was behind 2016 chats with Kim Sae-ron

A twist has emerged in the controversy surrounding actor Kim Soo-hyun and the late actress Kim Sae-ron: KakaoTalk messages previously presented as evidence that the two were involved while Kim Sae-ron was a minor were reportedly exchanged with another celebrity, identified only as "Celebrity A." Dispatch reported Tuesday that police identified Celebrity A, not Kim Soo-hyun, as the person who exchanged the 2016 messages with Kim Sae-ron. The chats had previously been released by the YouTube channel HoverLab, also known as Garo Sero Research Institute, as purported evidence of a relationship between the two actors. According to Dispatch, police conducted a forensic examination of electronic devices used by Kim Sae-ron and recovered past conversations, photographs and other data. The report said investigators found no evidence on the devices showing that Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Sae-ron were dating during the period in question. It also said Kim Sae-ron maintained close relationships with at least four men during that period. Police analysis reportedly identified Celebrity A as the sender of th

Kim Ji-won, Kim You-jung face off as genius surgeon, pickpocket in weekend drama battle

Kim Ji-won of "Queen of Tears" and Kim You-jung of "Dear X" are going head-to-head on weekend television, returning with dramatically different roles after acclaimed performances in their previous series. Kim Ji-won stars as a brilliant surgeon in SBS' new Friday-Saturday series "Doctor X: Mafia in White," while Kim You-jung transforms into a master pickpocket in tvN's 20th anniversary special project "100 Days of Deception." The two dramas premiered just one day apart, with "Doctor X" airing its first episode Friday and "100 Days of Deception" following Saturday. Their schedules put the two stars in direct competition on Saturday nights, adding another high-profile matchup to the weekend drama race. Expectations are particularly high because both actors are coming off performances that marked significant moments in their careers. Kim Ji-won returned to a leading television role about two years after the hit tvN series "Queen of Tears," in which she played Hong Hae-in, a third-generation chaebol heiress confronting love, loss and a life-threatening illness. Her performance, which shifted

Former fromis_9 member Roh Ji-sun opens up about 15 years in entertainment industry

Former fromis_9 member Roh Ji-sun has offered a rare and deeply personal account of her 15 years in the entertainment industry, days after revealing that she once had to rely on a credit card loan to cover basic living expenses after ending her activities with the K-pop girl group. On Oct. 11, Roh shared a thumbnail from her appearance on Min Sae-rom's YouTube channel on her personal social media account, along with a lengthy message reflecting on the years she spent as an idol. "I tried to fit the 15 years from age 14 to 29 into just over 20 minutes," Roh said. "It wasn't enough time to tell every story, but there were also things I couldn't tell." "There were moments when I was an adult and moments when I wasn't. There were people I was grateful for and things that were difficult to understand," she said. Roh also reflected on how years in the idol industry changed her relationship with beauty and appearance, tied to the intense visual expectations placed on K-pop stars. "I like pretty things. I like dressing myself up and choosing what to wear, and I like seeing and creating beautiful

AB6IX's Park Woo-jin turns new page with 2nd solo EP

Park Woo-jin, a member of boy group AB6IX who first rose to stardom through Wanna One — the project boy band born out of Mnet's "Produce 101 Season 2" — returned with his second solo EP, "SOLSTICE," Tuesday. Park first rose to fame after placing sixth on the survival show, which led to his debut with Wanna One in August 2017. Following the group's disbandment, he debuted as the main rapper and dancer of AB6IX in May 2019. Alongside his group promotions, he has built a strong presence as a solo artist since making his solo debut with the mini-album "oWn" in February 2023. Now a seasoned veteran of the K-pop scene, Park makes his return about a year and five months after his single "Cool & Hot," released in April last year. The EP is also his first release since joining Para Music in June. AB6IX has been on hiatus since its seventh-anniversary concert in May, when the group's contract with Brand New Music expired. Hours before the album's release, Park met with reporters at a performance hall in Jung District, central Seoul, on Tuesday, sharing the story behind the album and what he has

K-pop agencies win authority to self-rate music videos under new law

Korean entertainment agencies will soon be able to bypass government review boards and release music videos on their own schedule under a new self-rating policy approved by the Cabinet on Tuesday. The milestone amendment to the Music Industry Promotion Act establishes a self-rating framework that empowers registered media distributors to classify their own music videos and release them directly to the public, dismantling a regulatory process that often delayed digital music drops. Korea’s strict oversight of music videos dates back to 2012, when the government mandated predistribution rating checks to protect minors from explicit sexual content, violence and dangerous behaviors in visual media. While intended as a public safety barrier, the prescreening requirement increasingly clashed with the fast-paced realities of the digital era, where sudden teaser drops and synchronized global rollouts are critical to a song’s commercial success. Under the overhauled system, qualified entertainment agencies and digital platforms registered with the Korea Media Rating Board can independently a
