Its cumulative audience has reached 3,249,178.</p><!--10--><p class='change'> Although it yielded the No. 1 spot at the box office—which it had long defended—to the Japanese animated feature "Chiikawa the Movie: The Secret of Mermaid Island," the film has maintained a top position on the box office charts for four consecutive weeks, establishing a solid stepping stone toward surpassing its break-even point of 3.7 million viewers.</p><!--14--><p class='change'> Having topped 3.2 million admissions, "The Assassin(s)" entered the top four highest-grossing Korean films of 2026, trailing "The King's Warden" (16.91 million), "COLONY" (5.95 million), and "Salmokji: Whispering Water" (3.24 million). It is anticipated to overtake "Salmokji: Whispering Water" to take third place sometime this week.</p><!--18--><p class='change'> Warning signs had emerged early in its release when the movie became embroiled in a controversy surrounding historical distortion, but "The Assassin(s)" has continued to draw steady audiences on the strength of the film itself. While it may not possess the explosive momentum seen in its opening days, strong word-of-mouth ratings from actual moviegoers—including a 92% CGV Golden Egg Index, a 9.2 audience score at Lotte Cinema, and an 8.9 verified viewer rating on Naver—are serving as the driving force behind its extended theatrical run.</p><!--22--><p class='change'> (SBS Entertainment News | Kim Ji-hye)</p><p><a href="https://sbsstar.net/article/N1008803850/the-assassins-becomes-4th-highestgrossing-korean-film-of-2026-gearing-up-for-longterm-run-past-breakeven-point?plink=ORI&amp;cooper=RSS">▶Read the Full Story Now</a></p><p><a href="https://news.sbs.co.kr/news/appinstall.do?plink=APPDOWN&amp;cooper=RSS">▶ SBS News App Download </a></p><p>ⓒ SBS &amp; SBS i : Unauthorized copy and/or redistributing of copyrighted materials prohibited</p>]]></content:encoded>

AIJING has been drawing attention with the debut track "NEON" topping Melon's TOP100 and earning the nickname "the next BoA," particularly for her powerful opening dance.</p><!--6--><p class='change'> Local Chinese media outlets reported that an educational company in Beijing operated by AIJING's parents failed to pay employee wages. The court-ordered compulsory enforcement amount confirmed under the names of the company and the parents reportedly reaches approximately 3.45 million yuan (around 690 million won).</p><!--10--><p class='change'> As the controversy grew, an individual identifying as AIJING's mother posted an apology on social media on October 14. Acknowledging that debt disputes arose due to deteriorating business conditions, the individual stated, "Regardless of any objective reasons, failing to pay on time is a wrongdoing that must be faced and taken responsibility for."</p><!--14--><p class='change'> She continued, "I will not evade responsibility and will take responsibility until the end when all problems are resolved." Regarding her daughter, she appealed, "The child has nothing to do with the business I operated in the past and the related disputes."</p><!--18--><p class='change'> However, criticism in China continued. On October 17, a hashtag alleging that they supported their daughter's debut while withholding employee wages rose to No. 1 on Weibo's real-time trending searches. Chinese media pointed out that rather than stopping at an apology, the unpaid wages must be repaid first.</p><!--22--><p class='change'> On October 18, a post by an online user claiming to have worked at the company spread across Chinese social media. This user claimed that they requested their back pay to hold their father's funeral, but received only 1,000 yuan (around 200,000 won).</p><!--26--><p class='change'> Born in 2013, AIJING won the youth division of World of Dance (WOD) China in 2024 and garnered attention for her dancing skills following her debut.</p><!--30--><p class='change'> Agency A2O Entertainment has not released an official statement regarding the controversy.</p><!--33--><figure class='change imgtag'><img alt="SBS 뉴스 이미지" data-captionyn="N" id="i30001093926" origin="sbs" src="https://img.sbs.co.kr/newsnet/etv/upload/2026/10/16/30001093926_700.jpg" style="display:block; margin:20px auto" v_height="400" v_play_time="0" v_reg_date="20261016103900" v_reg_user="강경윤" v_src="https://img.sbs.co.kr/newsnet/etv/upload/2026/10/16/30001093926.jpg" v_title="A2O LITE (Photo=Getty Images Korea)" v_width="600"></figure><!--34--><p class='change'>(SBS Entertainment News | Kang Kyung-youn)</p><p><a href="https://sbsstar.net/article/N1008804263/a2o-lite-aijing-embroiled-in-controversy-over-parents-alleged-unpaid-wages?plink=ORI&amp;cooper=RSS">▶Read the Full Story Now</a></p><p><a href="https://news.sbs.co.kr/news/appinstall.do?plink=APPDOWN&amp;cooper=RSS">▶ SBS News App Download </a></p><p>ⓒ SBS &amp; SBS i : Unauthorized copy and/or redistributing of copyrighted materials prohibited</p>]]></content:encoded>

Defying everyone's expectations, GIRL'S DAY's Yura and Apink's Chorong made their entrance.</p><!--4--><p class='change'> At this, a flustered Yang Sechan asked, "What do they have to do with me?" while the other members remarked, "Ah, they're Yang Sechan's women."</p><!--5--><p class='change'> The production team explained that there was a reason both had come, first shining a light on Yang Sechan having named Chorong as his ideal type nine months ago. In response, Chorong said, "But oppa, didn't you just talk about another member earlier?"</p><!--6--><p class='change'> Yang Sechan quickly clarified, "Ah, HAHA hyung was the one who said that." Chorong voiced her disappointment that someone else's name had been brought up instead of hers, saying, "I thought I had come to the wrong place."</p><!--7--><p class='change'> Recalling the moment he mentioned her as his ideal type, Yang Sechan said, "When Chorong showed up with short hair, I said I liked it so much."</p><!--8--><p class='change'> Next, it was brought up that Yura had previously demanded an explanation from Yang Sechan on another broadcast. Yura then surprised everyone by saying, "Ah, that's because Sechan oppa and I have dating rumors."</p><!--9--><p class='change'> Yang Sechan countered, "It wasn't a dating rumor, HAHA hyung just said something weird," mentioning how HAHA had claimed Yang Sechan once dated an idol.</p><!--10--><p class='change'> To this, Yura shared the story of how an untrue rumor became treated as fact: "After HAHA oppa said that, it became a huge issue. Everyone went, 'It's Yura.'" She continued, "At first, because Sechan oppa and I are so close, I laughed it off going, 'Hehe, they say I'm dating Sechan oppa.' But after that, every single comment started linking me to Sechan oppa."</p><!--11--><p class='change'> Yura added, recalling the awkward situation, "I've never had a single dating rumor break until now, so I thought, 'At this point, a dating rumor practically broke.'" She then playfully put Yang Sechan in a tough spot by joking, "Oppa, but you really can't tell. We dated, but you really hide it well."</p><!--12--><p class='change'> Throughout the episode, Yang Sechan enjoyed a happy race while being on the receiving end of flirting from the two female guests. Among them, Yang Sechan drew particular attention as his face seemed noticeably fluttered around Chorong.</p><!--13--><p class='change'> After all missions concluded, the production team prepared another mission for the special guests and Yang Sechan. A final decision was presented with movie tickets on the line. The production team asked them whether their hearts had ever fluttered for the other person.</p><!--14--><p class='change'> With that, Yura and Chorong weighed whether to choose Yang Sechan. Meanwhile, Yang Sechan made his selection while wondering which of the two would pick him.</p><!--15--><p class='change'> As a result, Chorong and Yang Sechan chose each other, capturing attention by winning luxury movie theater tickets valid for two years.</p><!--16--><p class='change'> The members teased the pair, saying, "Are you guys really going to watch a movie?" and "This is how it begins."</p><!--17--><p class='change'> Chorong, who chose Yang Sechan after much deliberation, confessed the moment her heart fluttered for him, saying, "You were so good at the games that I thought, 'Oh, he's cool.'" To this, Yura joked, "Unnie, I'll give you my ex-boyfriend, I'll send him your way," drawing laughter. </p><!--19--><p class='change'>※ Please note: This article was translated by AI and may contain errors.</p><p><a href="https://sbsstar.net/article/N1008803431/yang-sechan-chooses-ideal-type-chorong-over-dating-rumor-partner-yura-on-running-man?plink=ORI&amp;cooper=RSS">▶Read the Full Story Now</a></p><p><a href="https://news.sbs.co.kr/news/appinstall.do?plink=APPDOWN&amp;cooper=RSS">▶ SBS News App Download </a></p><p>ⓒ SBS &amp; SBS i : Unauthorized copy and/or redistributing of copyrighted materials prohibited</p>]]></content:encoded>

Kim Bum-soo began, "Hyun-seung and I have known each other for 30 years. We first met when we were high school students."</p><!--5--><p class='change'> He continued to praise his friend, saying, "Hyun-seung does classical vocal music, and his voice was so incredible—even better than it is now."</p><!--6--><p class='change'> To this, Hyun-seung mentioned Kim Bum-soo's exceptional skill level, saying, "As soon as Bum-soo arrived, he sang, and I thought, 'How can anyone sing like this?' It felt like he came from another world."</p><!--7--><p class='change'> Kim Bum-soo also explained that he met another friend 20 years ago in the military. That friend drew bursts of laughter by saying, "The way you look now is completely different from when I first saw you. When we first met, you definitely didn't look like a soldier from our country. A person who didn't look like a soldier of our country was sitting there reading a Bible. Unlike back then, every day now is your prime." </p><!--9--><p class='change'>※ Please note: This article was translated by AI and may contain errors.</p><p><a href="https://sbsstar.net/article/N1008803315/kim-bumsoos-close-friend-on-my-little-old-boy-every-day-now-is-his-prime-compared-to-when-we-first-met-in-the-military?plink=ORI&amp;cooper=RSS">▶Read the Full Story Now</a></p><p><a href="https://news.sbs.co.kr/news/appinstall.do?plink=APPDOWN&amp;cooper=RSS">▶ SBS News App Download </a></p><p>ⓒ SBS &amp; SBS i : Unauthorized copy and/or redistributing of copyrighted materials prohibited</p>]]></content:encoded>

He then began, "There was a live bar near the Sanwoollim Theater, and someone said there was a person there who sang incredibly well."</p><!--5--><p class='change'> Shin Dong-yeob honestly shared, "It was before she debuted, but even at a young age, she was insanely good at singing. So rather than hoping something romantic would happen, I just wanted to get to know her. That's why I asked for her contact information, but she refused to give it to me until the very end. So I felt both disappointed and regretful."</p><!--6--><p class='change'> To this, Lee Eun-mi explained, "I remember meeting Shin Dong-yeob, but I don't remember him asking for my phone number. But not giving him my number wasn't because Shin Dong-yeob was strange; I think it was just because I was so in love with music back then."</p><!--7--><p class='change'> Shin Dong-yeob then quipped, "So you couldn't love both at the same time. How hard must it have been when you had an album to prepare for?" drawing laughter. </p><!--9--><p class='change'>※ Please note: This article was translated by AI and may contain errors.</p><p><a href="https://sbsstar.net/article/N1008803313/shin-dongyeob-on-my-little-old-boy-reveals-he-was-once-turned-down-by-lee-eunmi-when-asking-for-her-number?plink=ORI&amp;cooper=RSS">▶Read the Full Story Now</a></p><p><a href="https://news.sbs.co.kr/news/appinstall.do?plink=APPDOWN&amp;cooper=RSS">▶ SBS News App Download </a></p><p>ⓒ SBS &amp; SBS i : Unauthorized copy and/or redistributing of copyrighted materials prohibited</p>]]></content:encoded>

In fact, he had been bullied by senior soldiers during his past military service and had been on the verge of losing his life.</p><!--5--><p class='change'> It was revealed that Na Dae-il, who was a military doctor at the time, saved him through surgery and even testified before a military committee against those who had tormented Kwon Choong-hyun. Furthermore, it caught viewers' attention that Kwon Choong-hyun was deeply moved by Na Dae-il's grace and had started working in the medical industry to be closer to him.</p><!--6--><p class='change'> However, even though Kwon Choong-hyun, who shared such a close bond with him, was suffering from severe cholecystitis, Na Dae-il treated it as if it were someone else's problem. And despite the medical team's opinion that surgery was urgent, Kwon Choong-hyun said he could not undergo surgery immediately due to his sales work, creating a heartbreaking situation.</p><!--7--><p class='change'> Na Dae-il, who had gained the trust of the Mokryeon Society, approached Gye Soo-jung for some reason and asked her to have a meal together. To this, Gye Soo-jung said, "I don't socialize. And patient Kwon Choong-hyun won't last until Monday."</p><!--8--><p class='change'> At the same time, Gye Soo-jung asked Na Dae-il if he had looked at Kwon Choong-hyun's scan. When Gye Soo-jung pointed out that there was something strange on his liver, Na Dae-il replied, "That's probably just adhesions formed as traces from the surgery 15 years ago clumped together."</p><!--9--><p class='change'> To this, Gye Soo-jung remarked, "That's just a guess," and Na Dae-il said, "It won't be a tumor or anything like that." Gye Soo-jung replied, "We'll only know once we open him up."</p><!--10--><p class='change'> Despite what Gye Soo-jung said, Na Dae-il brought up her surgeries. He asked, "You seemed like a god. Or maybe a monster? People say you only look ahead, so I wondered what's in front of you. Or is it behind you? What is there that makes you only look forward?" but Gye Soo-jung walked forward without offering any answer.</p><!--11--><p class='change'> And just as Gye Soo-jung had predicted, Kwon Choong-hyun could not hold out until Monday. Kwon Choong-hyun was rushed to the hospital on Friday. At that time, Na Dae-il was socializing with the Mokryeon Society.</p><!--12--><p class='change'> The hospital notified Na Dae-il that Kwon Choong-hyun had been brought in. However, Na Dae-il pushed the surgery off to another doctor, only reacting when he heard that Gye Soo-jung would be performing the surgery and would perform open surgery due to severe adhesions.</p><!--13--><p class='change'> Na Dae-il headed straight to the hospital, and Gye Soo-jung began the open surgery without any hesitation. Then, Gye Soo-jung discovered the initials "DN" written on Kwon Choong-hyun's liver, raising curiosity about what had happened to him 15 years ago. </p><!--15--><p class='change'>※ Please note: This article was translated by AI and may contain errors.</p><p><a href="https://sbsstar.net/article/N1008802525/doctor-x-mafia-in-white-kim-jiwon-discovers-initials-dn-carved-on-patients-organ-during-surgerymdashwhat-does-it-mean?plink=ORI&amp;cooper=RSS">▶Read the Full Story Now</a></p><p><a href="https://news.sbs.co.kr/news/appinstall.do?plink=APPDOWN&amp;cooper=RSS">▶ SBS News App Download </a></p><p>ⓒ SBS &amp; SBS i : Unauthorized copy and/or redistributing of copyrighted materials prohibited</p>]]></content:encoded>

Many local citizens offered warm words of encouragement to Chungju Jee-ssi, creating a heartwarming atmosphere.</p><!--4--><p class='change'> In particular, Ji Ye-eun drew laughter by sharing, "My real-life appearance doesn't translate to broadcasts. So I'm so grateful that people saw me in person and said I'm pretty in real life."</p><!--5--><p class='change'> Next, the secretaries headed to a karaoke room with Chungju Jee-ssi, where their final stage rehearsal was scheduled to take place.</p><!--6--><p class='change'> As Lee Seo-jin watched Chungju Jee-ssi's karaoke rehearsal, his gaze gradually grew filled with pity. He drew bursts of laughter by remarking, "I feel so bad for Seokjin hyung. Doing this and that at the age of sixty, even if it is by his own will, I just feel so bad for him. If I had watched this after having a drink, I almost would have cried."</p><!--7--><p class='change'> Ji Ye-eun then showcased the choreography for "Like a JENNIE", crafted by Vata. However, Lee Seo-jin and Kim Kwang-kyu watched without offering any reaction, prompting Ji Ye-eun to abruptly stop dancing and draw attention as she protested, "Seriously, you're making our girl lose all her confidence!"</p><!--8--><p class='change'> Afterward, Chungju Jee-ssi finally arrived at the concert venue, and the secretaries attended to the two members, who suddenly grew nervous. Kim Kwang-kyu then took the stage in place of rapper Wonstein, who features in their track, earning enthusiastic applause.</p><!--9--><p class='change'> Lee Seo-jin offered high praise for the stage performance of his cherished older brother, remarking, "That hyung did better than I expected. He has an appetite for the stage, and I think he did a great job."</p><!--10--><p class='change'> After all scheduled events concluded for the day, Jee Seokjin shared, "I love taking on challenges, and I want to keep challenging myself," revealing his ambition to try his hand at a traditional drama or theater play next time.</p><!--11--><p class='change'> To this, Lee Seo-jin advised, "Right now, even Kwang-kyu hyung can't get cast in traditional dramas and is taking a break. Just stick to what you've been doing." However, Jee Seokjin remained undeterred and drew laughter by asserting, "I want to take on challenges regardless of age."</p><!--12--><p class='change'> Ji Ye-eun then drew uproarious laughter by contrasting Lee Seo-jin with Kim Kwang-kyu, who had attentively waited on her, quipping that Lee Seo-jin "still seems to suffer from main character syndrome" and adding that the luxury necklace he wears intimidates people. </p><!--14--><p class='change'>※ Please note: This article was translated by AI and may contain errors.</p><p><a href="https://sbsstar.net/article/N1008801779/my-genie-secretary-ji-yeeun-calls-out-lee-seojins-main-character-syndrome-and-intimidating-luxury-necklace?plink=ORI&amp;cooper=RSS">▶Read the Full Story Now</a></p><p><a href="https://news.sbs.co.kr/news/appinstall.do?plink=APPDOWN&amp;cooper=RSS">▶ SBS News App Download </a></p><p>ⓒ SBS &amp; SBS i : Unauthorized copy and/or redistributing of copyrighted materials prohibited</p>]]></content:encoded>
