Kim Seon-ho makes acting comeback months after scandal By Esther Lam Instagram/Kim Seon-ho After getting hit with a potentially career-ending scandal and then surviving the backlash, South Korean actor Kim Seon-ho is ready to step back into the spotlight after eight months. His comeback project? The Korean adaptation of the play Touching the Void. This will also be Seon-ho's first acting gig this year. And seeing as he made his debut in theatre in 2009, this makes the 36-year-old's comeback through theatre rather poetic. On Wednesday (June 22), Seon-ho's agency Salt Entertainment announced the news with a promotional poster featuring Seon-ho. Set in 1985, the play follows Joe Simpson (played by Seon-ho) and Simon Yates, two British mountaineers in their grand quest to be the first to reach the summit of the Siula Grande in the Peruvian Andes. As they make their descent, they face near-death situations and have to fight for survival. The story is based on the book of the same name by Joe Simpson and its 2003 film adaptation. The play will run from July 9 to Sept 18 at Seoul's Art One Theater. https://www.instagram.com/_u/kimseonhodaily_/?utm_source=ig_embed&ig_rid=e7f2384b-de70-40c1-ae56-45275ae9ded2&ig_mid=75C10B7B-29D0-46C5-955E-64E7CE9E545E For the uninitiated, Seon-ho was previously a rising star after his appearances in Start-Up and Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha. That was until October 2021, when an anonymous woman, said to be his ex-girlfriend, accused him of mental abuse and claimed he forced her to get an abortion to save his career. She also said he was obsessed with money and changed his attitude towards her after the abortion. Following news of the scandal, brands that Seon-ho endorsed — including Domino's Pizza Korea, Canon Korea, Miima and Nau Korea — dropped him and removed his commercials and photos from their official channels. The 36-year-old also withdrew his participation in season four of the Korean variety show 2 Days and 1 Night. The tide began to turn when a report from Korean paparazzi media Dispatch revealed that his ex-girlfriend was not entirely innocent either. Read Also All about Kim Seon-ho's scandal, from accusations of abuse and abortion to how Hometown Cha-Cha-Cha cast are affected Allegedly, she was seeing other men and had kept images and videos of Seon-ho on her personal devices. In a series of conversations leaked by Dispatch between the couple and their friends, it was revealed that Seon-ho had actually been a loyal and loving boyfriend. The pair's relationship had also fallen apart due to questionable circumstances and not because of Seon-ho's rise to fame. The former couple's friends said that Seon-ho had been supportive throughout the abortion process — and even after — and that it was his ex-girlfriend who had been difficult. It's not clear whether he had forced her to get the abortion, but nevertheless, public perception of Seon-ho quickly changed from villain to victim. Netizens began showering Seon-ho with love and support again and brands also reinstated advertisements featuring the actor. His Instagram following also grew exponentially and now stands at a whopping 8.1 million. And, it seems he has one more project on the horizon after Touching the Void — the South Korean noir film Sad Tropics. Seon-ho was announced as part of the cast in November 2021 and filming wrapped earlier this year. source: https://www.asiaone.com/entertainment/kim-seon-ho-makes-acting-comeback-new-play-months-after-scandal-touching-the-void

BTS vows full support for Busan's World Expo bid BTS are seen in a photo from the boy band's official Twitter account. Yonhap K-pop sensation BTS agreed Friday to fully support Busan's bid to host the World Expo in 2030, including holding a global concert in the southern port city of Busan, according to the local government.Hybe, the entertainment company behind BTS, signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with the Busan Metropolitan Government the same day to cooperate on the city's promotional projects for the prestigious convention overseen by the International Bureau of Expositions (BIE).Under the MOU, BTS will serve as a public relations ambassador for the bid and hold a global concert in Busan to promote the city's bid. The local government did not elaborate on details about the concert.Also, the septet will guide BIE officials during on-site inspections slated for next year, deliver presentations at a BIE general assembly and participate in the final assembly when the BIE announces the host city next year.Online promotional activities via social media are also included in BTS' to-do list for Busan."I'm well aware that hosting the World Expo in Busan is very important for the nation," Bang Si-hyuk, CEO of Hybe, was quoted as saying during the signing ceremony for the MOU at Busan City Hall. "I will do my best to help the city host the event along with BTS."Last week, BTS accepted the Busan city government's request to help the city host the World Expo, days after the K-pop sensation said it was suspending performing as a group to focus on solo projects that will explore the growth of individual members.The World Expo is one of the largest international festivals besides the World Cup and the Olympics. Hosting an expo is estimated to create an economic effect worth 61 trillion won (US$49.1 billion), according to the Korean government.South Korea is competing with two other countries ― Italy and Saudi Arabia ― and the final winner is expected to be announced in November 2023.

hai everyone. I hope you all had a lovely day at work. over the years, there have been many tracks produced for dramas that became eternal. I chose this song has the life of the show and are still on everyone's lips even after all these years. BTS members Kim Taehyung (V) and Jin. the OST is titled Even If I Die, It's You - Hwarang: The Poet Warrior. source:

hai everyone. I just finished episode 6. so happy I've been taking it slow and watching them every couple days. 😅 it's so good I don't want it to end. 😘 here comes a wave, when Hong Seok Pal, he admitted to killing Park So Young and told Soo Jae to look for him in an abandoned area. the shocked look on her face as he rose betrayed that the material evidence and narrative sources would not last long. a tide that is taking me under Gong Chan, he's really shines as the free spirit who is open, kind and giving, and who breaks down the wall of Soo Jae's heart. I love the storyline, every episode never fails to surprise me. she's cold and distant, while Gong Chan is all smiles in this drama, he's such a happy and positive person and I love how he does cute little things for Soo Jae. the whole plot was so smooth. brilliant cast of actors who all portrayed their characters flawlessly whether lead or support role. as a viewer, I get hooked and I root for their love to succeed. I had my reservations at first but right now absolutely blown away.

@SilverMoonTea .. , once again, thank you for the warm welcome. chingu, you're absolutely right. a brief glimpse of Boo Jung's life was also shown. looking forward to seeing her again in the 2023 after her last year performance on Human Disqualification drama. Jung Kyung Ho Ssi's one of my top favorite k-actors. he's amazing. I must admit he has a presence on screen. totally heart melting. he can totally make our heart melt by simply calling endearment. his Hospital Playlist drama which has 2 seasons are tumultuous but ultimately touching drama. 😁
