@Magician thanks for sharing this. So NICE that Kim Soo-hyun has recently been showing open communication with fans when he started using a paid platform Bubble. Upon starting the service, Kim Soo-hyun immediately changed his profile picture and name. He changed his profile to “Kim Soo-man” and updated his status message to “KIM SOO HYUN, that’s right” On the morning of April 25th, he informed fans about his schedule for this watch brand event by saying, “I will greet you after a while.” During the event, when he was called by his character’s name “Baek Hyun-woo” instead of Kim Soo-hyun, he burst into laughter. When asked about attending the after-show party for the drama, Kim Soo-hyun replied, “Of course I will go.” When asked about the location, he responded “It will be in Yeouido” then asked the staff for the exact location. He smiled when he learned the exact location, saying, “Yes, we will be at the same place as before.“ Kim Soo-hyun continued to show his love for fans by sending these photos of the event to fans who were curious about his appearance through the platform. He has a consistent communication on the platform every day.

*** According to industry insiders on April 26 KST, Dong Suh Foods Corporation, the parent company of the coffee brand 'Maxim' in South Korea, will be concluding its relationship with the Won Bin and Lee Na Young couple this year. Won Bin will be stepping down as the model for 'Maxim T.O.P' ready-to-drink coffee, after 16 years. It's believed that Won Bin's endorsement contract came to an end in January of this year. He was previously chosen as the model for 'Maxim T.O.P' in 2008, widely popularizing the ready-to-drink beverages as "Won Bin coffee". A representative of Dong Suh Foods Corporation remarked, "It's true that Park Bo Young was selected as the new model for 'Maxim Mocha Gold'. The search for the new model for 'Maxim T.O.P' is still ongoing." Ohhh.......... it's been a long time since Won Bin was in a drama. I hope he will come back to do a drama or movie.

Everything in “Queen of Tears” is perfect: from acting, directing, story to music Explosive interest is being drawn to the conclusion of "Queen of Tears" As tvN’s Saturday-Sunday drama “Queen of Tears” (written by Park Ji-eun, directed by Jang Young-woo, Kim Hee-won, produced by Studio Dragon, Culture Depot, Showrunners) approaches its final two episodes this week, we take a closer look at the reasons behind its strong allure, captivating viewers until the end. First and foremost, the increasingly impressive performances by Kim Soo-hyun (as Baek Hyun-woo) and Kim Ji-won (as Hong Hae-in) are overwhelmingly dominating the screen. The heartfelt acting of these two actors resonates deeply with viewers, to the extent that reactions like “When Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won cry, I cry too” are pouring in. Kim Soo-hyun and Kim Ji-won’s delicate expressions, portraying the temperature and hues of love with sincerity, have truly immersed viewers into the drama. Moreover, the emergence of the all-time villain, portrayed by Park Sung-hoon (as Yoon Eun-sung), and the stellar performances by Kwak Dong-yeon (as Hong Soo-cheol) and Lee Joo-bin (as Cheon Da-hye), transcending comedy and melodrama, have dazzled viewers. The warmth within the Yongdu-ri family and the charm of the Queens family have been portrayed beautifully. The synergy created by the actors’ solid acting skills and distinctive personalities has brought joy to viewers. Furthermore, the dynamic and engaging development of lifelike characters has provided thrilling entertainment. Whether through delightful plot twists that overturn patriarchal norms or through the poignant romance between Baek Hyun-woo and Hong Hae-in, the drama seamlessly blends various genres, keeping viewers hooked. Sensuous directing is another indispensable element contributing to the success of “Queen of Tears”. Particularly, by incorporating Hong Hae-in’s illness, the emotional lines are maximized. Additionally, meticulous considerations in directing, such as transitioning screen ratios to resemble movies or presenting scenes like photographs, allow viewers to immerse themselves more deeply into the characters’ emotions. Finally, as much as the dazzling cast, the captivating OSTs placed at opportune moments further enhance the completeness of the drama. Impressive lyrics representing the characters’ emotions coupled with impactful songs and background music create a harmonious blend, enriching the overall experience. Meanwhile, Episode 15 of “Queen of Tears” will air on April 27th at 9:10 PM. source : https://v.daum.net/v/20240426101700097

*** "Blood Free" episode 5 featured an attack on BF Group's CEO (Han Hyo Joo). However, the incident left her bodyguard, Woo Chae Woon (Ju Ji Hoon) severely hurt. He was severely shot in the upper body, leaving him to lose a lot of blood. However, CEO Yoon decided to put Chae Woon in an experiment to see if their plan would succeed and help him with survival. They decided to treat him using cultured tissue, with Yoon Ja Yoo being hopeful that this would be their first success story. The CEO was thrilled with the result after seeing the positive effects on Woo Chae Woon. Unfortunately, Woo Chae Woon realized that the effect of this included having extremely heightened hearing senses. Looking forward to the next EPs.

*** Watching ‘Queen of Tears’ episodes 15-16 preview clip, it's a preview of Kim Ji Won's reunion with Kim Soo Hyun. (Hong Hae In visits Baek Hyun Woo in jail) Sigh.....he was imprisoned for the murder he didn't commit. Hence, I can conclude they have happy ending. Also, I can claim that Hae In's memories would probably return as there are hints that she recalls some of the important events in his past. I'm also looking forward to what will happen with (Park Sung Hoon) and his mother and how the Queens' family will regain their wealth. Tomorrow is D-DAY! "Queen of Tears" finale on April 27 and 28 on tvN and Netflix.

*** The disturbing trend of celebrity impersonation scams continues to persist online, as fake news articles manipulating the likeness of Song Joong Ki to promote a cryptocurrency scam have resurfaced. Despite requests to block these ads, they remain rampant, which mislead internet users. According to a source, one article that gained support through Google AdSense, claimed that Song Joong Ki made lucrative earnings from a cryptocurrency website boasting guaranteed returns of over 80% for a small deposit of $29. In addition, the published article also includes a clickable link, which is said to be endorsed by him. What is more troubling is that Song Joong Ki's name is not the only celebrity being used by the scammers. They also use names of Park Shin Hye and Chairman of LG. Furthermore, Song Joong Ki's side has not yet responded to the issue involving their artist. After Netflix's original film "My Name is Loh Kiwan," Song Joong Ki has no confirmed project yet. I hope his next one will be a drama. It's been quite a while since "Reborn Rich." source : https://www.mstoday.co.kr/news/articleView.html?idxno=90623

@backstreetboysfan Their on-screen chemistry was particularly highlighted in the pictorial, where the duo posed with an apple between them. In this magazine he added that he looks forward to how it would feel to watch himself again after a long time. For sure I will love this drama because it's in the romance genre. Can't wait for this drama to premiere this May 4 on JTBC at 10:30 p.m. (KST). I want to watch Jang Ki Yong once again.

*** "Blood Free" is Han Hyo Joo and Jun Ji Hoon first time collaborating in a series. As you watch the series, you will get curious about the backstories of their characters. As you learn more about them, you can expect a whirlwind roller-coaster ride of guessing games, pointing fingers at who might be a spy, questioning the characters’ motives, and rooting for them to finally have the truth to be revealed. From here, you start to form your theories. This is a 10-episode thrilling series, with 2 episodes dropping every Wednesday.

*** This was the wrap party photo held on April 3. Kim Soo Hyun was beside Kim Joo Ryoung in the picture. She posted this on her IG the next day with the caption, "'Queen of Tears' already completed filming. I always stick to one place. The only picture I took at the party. Everyone worked so hard." - As the series approaches its conclusion, I can't wait for the remaining episodes.
