YOUNG J, the leader of "Street Man Fighter" winning crew Just Jerk, has experienced the loss of his father-in-law.

On the 19th, YOUNG J shared his feelings on social media, writing, "My father-in-law had been fighting cancer for about two years. During that time, my wife and I wanted to show him us getting married, and we really wanted to show him the precious child who has come to us. However, in the end, not being able to show him those moments breaks my heart so much, and I am only filled with a sense of apology."

YOUNG J also expressed his gratitude for his father-in-law during his lifetime. He mourned, "Whenever I was exhausted and weary, he embraced me more warmly than anyone else and always gave me courage. He believed in me through actions rather than words, and he was someone who reached out a warm hand whenever things were difficult."

Previously, YOUNG J formed a family by marrying a fellow dancer 13 years his junior last February. Ahead of his marriage, suspicions arose that his girlfriend was born in 2005 and that the two had been dating since she was a minor. At the time, YOUNG J clarified, "We became a couple after my girlfriend became an adult, and we are in a serious relationship with plans to marry with the permission of our families."

He will also suspend his activities for the time being. YOUNG J concluded, "Rather than greeting you all with a bright image, I want to briefly pause all activities and properly send off my father-in-law alongside my family," adding, "After spending sufficient time with my family and gathering my thoughts, I will greet you all again soon. Father-in-law, I loved you so much and thank you."

Actor Kim Yoon-woo has solidified his commanding presence with the release of new profile photos highlighting his contrasting charms.

On September 21, his agency WNY released a fresh set of profile photos capturing Kim Yoon-woo's versatile range and distinctive atmosphere.

In the released photos, Kim effortlessly shifts his aura depending on his styling, instantly drawing attention. In the cuts where he wears a black shirt and a suit, he radiates a powerful aura with a restrained expression and a deep gaze staring straight into the camera.

In contrast, another shot featuring him in a denim shirt reveals a 180-degree turnaround with a clear and gentle gaze. He elicits admiration by channeling boyish charm that blends his signature refreshing, youthful energy with a calm composure.

According to staff members on set, Kim drew immense praise by portraying an entirely different persona in each cut through subtle shifts in his gaze alone.

Previously, Kim Yoon-woo earned critical acclaim for his delicate emotional performance as the singer Ryang-eum in the MBC drama "My Dearest," taking home the Best New Actor award at the MBC Drama Awards. Since then, he has built a solid filmography through relentless hard work, appearing in "Begins ≠ Youth," "Delightfully Deceitful," "Gyeongseong Creature," and the recently concluded ENA drama "Doctor on the Edge".

Having showcased his limitless versatility through these new profiles, attention is now focused on what kind of projects and characters Kim Yoon-woo will greet the public with next.

Rapper Yang Hong-won (27) is drawing attention for mentioning rapper Ksmartboi (real name Kim Sang-min, 22), a labelmate who was taken into custody for marijuana use.

On the 20th, Yang posted a photo on his social media story that appeared to be taken inside a vehicle heading toward the Seoul Dongbu Detention Center. He tagged Ksmartboi background music," hinting that he was on his way to see Kim.

Yang also wrote, "My younger brother Sangmin. You need to get beaten up by your hyung once, you know that right? Your hyung really hits," expressing his intention to give a stern lecture to his junior who caused a social controversy and disappointed fans.

Previously, Kim was detained on the 16th on charges of smoking marijuana during his probation period. Yang Eun-sang, the chief warrant judge at the Seoul Western District Court, issued an arrest warrant for Kim after conducting a pre-arrest suspect interrogation (warrant review) for charges under the Narcotics Control Act (marijuana), stating that there is a risk of flight and destruction of evidence. Kim is accused of using liquid marijuana, and the Seoul Mapo Police Station obtained an arrest warrant from the court to arrest him on the 14th before applying for a formal arrest warrant the following day.

Kim belongs to Indigo Music, led by rapper Swings (Moon Ji-hoon, 39), and previously has a confirmed criminal record for smoking marijuana. In April of last year, the second instance court sentenced him to eight months in prison with a two-year probation for smoking marijuana with an acquaintance in a parking lot in Seoul in May 2024. The first instance trial court pointed out regarding Kim, "Even though he has a record of receiving a suspension of indictment for the same type of crime, he committed the offense again. The nature of the crime is poor as it was committed in a public place."

Kim's current detention comes approximately one year and five months after he was caught again for the same offense before his probation period had ended.

Back in January, Kim appeared on the YouTube channel "SPNS TV" alongside his agency's head, Swings, to mention the controversy caused by his marijuana use at the time. At the time, Swings expressed deep trust, sharing, "When Sangmin caused trouble, he left a handwritten letter in front of my house saying, 'I am sorry for losing trust in you.' Among the about six people from our agency who went to a detention center, he was the first one to step up and say sorry like that."

In April, Kim joined the diss battle between rapper BIG Naughty and Swings, releasing "Naughty Talk + VANCOUVER FLOW" alongside GGM Kimbo and Rich Iggy, where lyrics such as "Put BIG Naughty in the toilet and flush him down" drew significant attention.

Ji Changwook enjoyed the perfect “A/S Day.”

On the September 18 broadcast of SBS's "Whatever You Wish, Genie - My Genie Secretary" (hereinafter "My Genie Secretary"), a special wish-fulfillment day was prepared for Ji Changwook.

Taking on his A/S Day, Ji Changwook listed taking four-cut photo booth pictures, playing claw machines, and going to a coin karaoke booth as the top items on his bucket list.

Ji Changwook headed straight into a photo booth alongside the secretaries. However, not knowing quite how to operate it, the three looked utterly flustered and clumsy.

After belatedly realizing the remote control was right there, they began snapping photos, but the session was anything but smooth. In the end, the final four cuts were picked based entirely on Ji Changwook's choices.

As a result, Kim Kwang-kyu's desperate efforts to make his face appear smaller in the frame went completely down the drain, bringing big laughs.

Next, Ji Changwook hyped up his claw machine skills, boasting that they had been sharpened over years of experience. His actual skills, however, failed to match his confidence, drawing playful complaints from the secretaries.

Yet right after, he nailed a 10-second timing challenge on his very first attempt, winning a plush toy and sending everyone's dopamine levels soaring.

Ji Changwook's bucket list adventure then moved to a coin karaoke room. He belted out tracks with passion, looking as if he were letting out all his pent-up stress.

Before long, however, the microphone was snatched away by Kim Kwang-kyu. Ji Changwook sparked laughter by sharing, "The moment Kwang-kyu hyung handed me the remote and asked me to queue up ‘Blue Bird,’ reality suddenly hit me."

Ji Changwook added, "It's been so long since I've felt this, but I feel completely exhausted from having too much fun," prompting the secretaries to jokingly yell back that he is dissatisfied whether they take care of him or not, wrapping up the day with plenty of laughs.

Lee Seo-jin showed far more interest in Son Ye-jin than in Ji Changwook.

On the September 18 broadcast of SBS's "Whatever You Wish, JINI – My Genie Secretary" (hereinafter "My Genie Secretary"), Lee Seo-jin was seen paying much more attention to someone else's star than to his own assigned "My Star."

On that day, a drama production press conference took place as a major schedule for his "My Star," Ji Changwook. Backstage, Ji Changwook and the "My Genie Secretary" team prepared for a photo session.

However, Lee Seo-jin's attention was entirely focused on Son Ye-jin, who stars alongside Ji Changwook. Looking at Son Ye-jin, he showered her with compliments, saying, "You're pretty, so pretty—you don't even need to look in the mirror."

Lee Seo-jin then offered her honey, an item meant for soothing Ji Changwook's throat, asking, "Ye-jin, would you like some honey? Honey?" Son Ye-jin politely declined, replying, "I'm fine, thank you. If I eat it now, I feel like it will be too sticky once I get out on stage."

Watching the interaction, Kim Kwang-kyu expressed his amazement at Lee Seo-jin's uncharacteristic behavior, remarking, "I was so shocked when he started talking to actor Son Ye-jin. He's really not the kind of guy to do that."

In response, Lee Seo-jin defended himself by saying, "No, she just kept coughing. She was coughing right next to me, so that's why. If you doubt me, just replay the footage." The production team then reviewed the recorded clips, which captured Son Ye-jin looking perfectly fine without coughing, sparking laughter.

Even afterward, Lee Seo-jin continued making small talk with Son Ye-jin about golf. When the production team pressed him on why he did so, Lee Seo-jin explained, "Some of her husband's friends are my juniors. I heard Son Ye-jin is really good at golf, and I've watched her YouTube videos, so I was just asking about it."

Hearing this, the production crew asked if he had ever watched Ji Changwook's YouTube channel. Lee Seo-jin put on a completely clueless expression and asked, "Where? He's on YouTube?"—bringing on a fresh wave of laughter.

Ji Changwook requested some follow-up care.

On the September 18 broadcast of SBS's "Whatever You Wish, Genie – My Genie Secretary" (hereinafter referred to as "My Genie Secretary"), the program welcomed its very first returning "My Star" guest.

During the episode, actor Ji Changwook returned to the secretaries following his appearance last season. Requesting follow-up care, he shared his expectations, saying, "Since this is my second time, and I've grown closer to the older brothers and built a bond with them, I have high hopes that our chemistry will be even better than before."

He also added, "Today is a production presentation, a formal public setting, so I think the older brothers will show an attitude befitting an official appearance."

True to his hopes, the secretaries drew eyes by arriving dressed in suits tailored to the occasion.

However, their dignified presence was short-lived. The secretaries quickly forgot their primary duties, drawing bursts of laughter by critiquing the attire of Ji Changwook's manager upon reuniting.

Legendary girl group Fin. K.L is returning as a complete group after about 21 years.

Gemstone E&M announced on the 21st, "We have joined hands with the four members LEE HYORI, Ock Joo-hyun, Lee Jin, and Sung Yu-ri to prepare for Fin. K.L's full-group official activities."

For this upcoming endeavor, Gemstone E&M will handle planning and operations in collaboration with the four members and related parties. Jason Lee, head of group management at Gemstone E&M, shared his aspirations, saying, "Fin. K.L is an artist with monumental symbolism in the history of Korean popular music. We will sequentially unveil diverse activities to deliver new memories and emotions to the fans who have steadfastly waited for and supported Fin. K.L over a long time."

This marks a full-fledged return for Fin. K.L as a complete team for the first time in 21 years, following their digital single album "Forever Fin. K.L" released in 2005. They previously reunited after 14 years through the 2019 JTBC variety show "Camping Club" and released a special new song, but that project was heavily characterized as a broadcast-linked event.

Debuting in the music scene in 1998, Fin. K.L opened wide the golden age of girl groups by scoring mega-hits with every track they released, starting with their debut song "Blue Rain," followed by "To My Boyfriend," "Eternal Love," "Pride," "White," and "Now." Ranging from icons of innocence to confident and unconventional charisma across a broad conceptual spectrum, they swept music grand prizes from the three major broadcast networks and enjoyed syndrome-level popularity, leaving an indelible footprint in the history of K-pop girl groups.

Following Fin. K.L's activities, LEE HYORI has continued a peerless career as a superstar, solo singer, and entertainer symbolizing her era, while Ock Joo-hyun has established herself as one of South Korea's top musical divas. Lee Jin and Sung Yu-ri have also received widespread love across acting and variety entertainment.

The film "The Assassin(s)" has taken first place in advance ticket reservation rates and sales rankings two days ahead of its release.

According to the Korean Film Council ticket reservation figures on the 21st, "The Assassin(s)" recorded 28.9%, overtaking "The Odyssey" (22.2%), which had held the top spot in this category for a long time, to rise to first place. Advance ticket sales surpassed 150,000, recording the highest figure among films targeting the Chuseok holiday.

Currently, the film at number one at the box office is "The Intern", which was released on the 16th. However, it showed less-than-expected momentum, with first-weekend audiences numbering in the 200,000 range and total weekly audiences stopping at 400,000. Given the current trend, it is highly likely that "The Assassin(s)" will rise to the number one spot at the box office upon its release.

"The Assassin(s)" tells the story of tracking the suspicions and mastermind behind the First Lady assassination incident that shocked South Korea on August 15, 1974. It is directed by Hur Jin-ho, who made "One Fine Spring Day" and "The Last Princess", and stars Yoo Hai-jin, Park Hae-il, and Lee Minho.

"The Intern," starring actors Choi Minsik and Han So-hee, put an end to the six-week consecutive weekend box office streak of "The Odyssey."

According to the Korean Film Council's integrated ticketing network on the 21st, "The Intern" drew 275,182 moviegoers from the 18th to the 20th. Its cumulative audience reached 403,902. It has been about 50 days since "HOPE" that a Korean film claimed the No. 1 spot at the box office.

Released on the 16th, "The Intern" debuted at No. 1 at the box office and maintained its momentum through the weekend. However, with the weekend audience stopping in the 200,000 range, its future box office prospects are not necessarily optimistic. This is because "The Assassin(s)," "Tazza: The Song of Beelzebub," and "Possible Love" are scheduled to open simultaneously on the 23rd.

Taking the No. 2 spot at the box office was "The Odyssey," which brought in 256,792 viewers during the same period. Its cumulative audience stands at 11,217,640. Entering its seventh week in release, it handed over the top spot to "The Intern," but its lasting momentum remains formidable. If it maintains its staying power this week as new releases targeting the Chuseok holiday open consecutively, surpassing 12 million in final admissions appears possible.

Why did Officer Bu falsely close the missing persons case?

On the September 19 broadcast of SBS's "Unanswered Questions", the program tracked down Officer Bu, who falsely closed a missing persons case in Jeju.

On May 12, 36-year-old Jang Mi-ran disappeared after leaving her home. Her family and boyfriend filed a missing persons report, but she was ultimately found skeletal in a palm tree grove in Hallim-eup, Jeju City, 104 days after her disappearance. Shockingly, the palm grove was located just 400 meters away from her lodging.

Her boyfriend had reported her missing following her disappearance. The officer on duty at the time was Officer Bu from the Missing Persons Investigation Team at Jeju Seobu Police Station, who called back just two and a half hours after receiving the report, claiming he had made contact with Mi-ran. He informed the boyfriend that Mi-ran did not want her location disclosed to him, and announced that he was closing the case.

However, this was a lie. Even several days after the missing persons report, no one had been able to reach Mi-ran, prompting her family to file another report, which unraveled Officer Bu's deception.

Police had never actually spoken with Mi-ran following her disappearance; Officer Bu had falsely processed her as deceased in the internal police missing persons system, deleting the report record.

Yet this was not the only case Officer Bu had falsely closed. In June, Officer Bu handled a missing persons report for a man in his 60s in the exact same manner. Public fury erupted as his incomprehensible conduct came to light, revealing that Officer Bu had Distorted details or falsely closed as many as 25 missing persons reports.

Furthermore, on the day Mi-ran's remains were discovered, police prematurely announced her cause of death as hanging, suggesting she had taken her own life—even before an autopsy had been conducted.

However, because Mi-ran was found in a skeletal state, even an autopsy could not determine a definitive cause of death, nor were there clear clues pointing to how she died. Despite this, police had rushed to announce a cause of death.

These police actions ultimately fueled numerous suspicions. Questions were raised regarding cell tower locations during the early days of her disappearance and CCTV sightings, as well as skepticism over whether it was even possible to hang oneself from a palm tree using shoelaces.

Through experiments, the production team confirmed that the possibility of incomplete hanging could not be ruled out. However, this finding alone was insufficient to determine whether her death was a suicide or homicide. The broadcast emphasized that hasty speculation and assumptions must be avoided all the more.

Regarding Officer Bu, police stated, "Profiling analysis suggests that a motive of work neglect, amid fatigue from accumulated workload and mounting responsibilities, combined with the suspect's avoidant and irresponsible attitude, led to the crime of falsely closing the cases."

However, attributing his actions merely to laziness raised eyebrows, as Officer Bu demonstrated meticulous calculation in the case of the man in his 60s by searching through other case files to find contact numbers and reach out.

In response, a criminal expert stated, "This is not an act driven by avoidance, escape, impulse, or an unconscious loss of control. He took extremely selective, proactive, and deliberate actions. He deliberately made it impossible to locate the missing persons, and we must uncover why Officer Bu did such a thing."

The expert drew further attention by adding, "Committing criminal acts using one's position or authority to gain a sense of superiority and satisfaction, as if one were a god, is referred to as a 'God complex.' The most notorious example is Britain's Harold Shipman, who killed patients he deemed unworthy of life by injecting them with poison."

Finally, the broadcast emphasized that while Officer Bu turned numerous missing persons cases into cold cases, he is not solely to blame for turning them into suspicious deaths.

Ahn Bohyun successfully arrested Yoo Seung-ho.

On the SBS Friday-Saturday drama "Flex X Cop Season 2" ("Flex X Cop 2") broadcast on the 19th, Jin Yi-soo and Joo Hye-ra were depicted arresting Yoo Sung-won.

On this day, Jung Tae-sun incited Han Jong-hyun to murder Yoo Sung-won. Learning of this, Yoo Sung-won murdered Han Jong-hyun and fled.

Violent Crimes Team 1, pursuing Yoo Sung-won, suffered injuries, and Jin Yi-soo, who had previously been attacked by Han Jong-hyun, barely regained consciousness.

Joo Hye-ra disguised herself as Jung Tae-sun to lure Yoo Sung-won. She then got into a physical altercation with him. During the struggle, Yoo Sung-won pointed a gun at Joo Hye-ra, saying, "You will become a masterpiece," and pulled the trigger.

Yoo Sung-won moved the bleeding, collapsed Joo Hye-ra to his exhibition space. At that moment, Jin Yi-soo appeared. In response, Yoo Sung-won said, "Watch how I make a work of art out of this woman. It will be the last piece your brother sees before he dies."

Jin Yi-soo replied, "Art? This is just trash. Trash made by a crazy murderous bastard. You think you are an artist? You just want to kill people. You are obsessed with corpses and get excited whenever you see one. You just wrapped it up as art and exhibited it to people, which makes you out of your mind."

Yoo Sung-won confessed to the murders, saying, "Do you still not understand? This is art on a completely different level. The kids I killed were living meaningless lives. I turned them into eternal beauty."

This was all part of Jin Yi-soo and Joo Hye-ra's plan, and the scene was being broadcast live through the media. Emergency arrested on murder charges, Yoo Sung-won maintained a brazen attitude until the end, claiming he had not made a confession but merely spoken out of imagination.

At the same time, Jung Tae-sun played innocent, claiming he did not know his son was a murderer and thinking Joo Hye-ra's previous warning to him was just a misunderstanding. He also denied any involvement in Han Jong-hyun's murder and Mr. Hwang's suicide.

The detectives searching Yoo Sung-won's studio to find decisive evidence finally discovered three bodies in his yard.

Joo Hye-ra questioned him, saying, "We found bodies in the yard. You buried bodies in your yard and walked all over them. Even in death, you made them lie beneath your feet, supporting you?"

Excited, Yoo Sung-won responded, "That is right. Because they are mine. They are mine! Even the corpses rotting underground are all mine. They are my artwork."

Joo Hye-ra told him, "This is your ending. A killer who pretended to be an artist," to which Yoo Sung-won retorted, "No, my name and my work will become even more famous. The whole world will remember me." Jin Yi-soo then brought a sense of catharsis by telling him, "Well, you won't get to see that. You will be locked up in a cell. Or maybe a psychiatric hospital instead of prison. Farewell."

Jung Tae-sun, who had denied his charges until the end, could no longer make excuses due to Jin Yi-soo's wiretapping and was arrested along with his son.

With all the cases concluded, a joint funeral was held to honor the victims, and Violent Crimes Team 1 even received commendation certificates.

Meanwhile, at the end of the broadcast, a man appeared driving a knife into a picture of Jin Yi-soo with a murderous look in his eyes, raising anticipation for the next story of Jin Yi-soo and Violent Crimes Team 1.

Ahn Bohyun found himself in a crisis.

On the September 18 broadcast of the SBS Friday-Saturday drama "Flex X Cop Season 2" (hereinafter "Flex X Cop 2"), Jin Yi-soo was portrayed facing a major crisis.

On this day, the chief of police announced disciplinary action against the Major Crimes Unit 1 for pushing forward with the investigation into Yoo Sung-won.

In response, Jin Yi-soo submitted his resignation, offering to take the blame instead. However, the chief dismissed his proposal, saying, "A disciplinary committee is going to open, so hand in hand, get out."

Jin Yi-soo protested, "What did we do wrong? The one who did wrong is you, Chief," revealing that he knew the chief had leaked investigation information to Jung Tae-sun's side. Jin Yi-soo then drew attention by warning, "Don't touch my team members," and declaring that if the chief failed to comply, he would expose the chief's corruption.

Jin Yi-soo sacrificed himself for his team members. Touched by this, Joo Hye-ra expressed her apologetic feelings. Jin Yi-soo hinted meaningfully, "I'll go out and do what I can do. Team Leader Joo, please protect this place. I'm not giving up on Yoo Sung-won."

Heading straight to meet Jung Tae-sun, Jin Yi-soo told him, "Watch and see how far I can go," and presented him with a pair of gold-plated handcuffs.

Consequently, Jung Tae-sun hastily prepared for Yoo Sung-won's escape abroad. Meanwhile, Jin Yi-soo listened to all of their conversations through a bugging device he had installed in the handcuffs and shared the information with Major Crimes Unit 1.

At that time, Jin Yi-soo headed to Yoo Sung-won's studio, where he discovered another exhibition space filled with personal belongings of the victims.

Jin Yi-soo informed Joo Hye-ra, "I found Yoo Sung-won's real studio. All the evidence is here." In response, the superintendent told him to wait a moment while sending the forensic team.

Joo Hye-ra and Major Crimes Unit 1 arrested Yoo Sung-won, stating, "Yoo Sung-won, we are placing you under emergency arrest on murder charges." To this, Yoo Sung-won showed a shameless attitude until the end, asking, "You're quite confident. Is it certain this time? Can you really catch me?"

Yoo Sung-won then asked, "Where is Soo-hyung right now? Is he in my studio?"

At that moment, Jin Yi-soo was attacked by Han Jong-hyun and collapsed, prompting Jung Tae-sun to order that both the studio and Jin Yi-soo be burned down, raising curiosity about how the story will unfold next.

The main "doctor version" poster featuring actor Kim Ji-won’s striking visual transformation has been revealed.

SBS's new Friday-Saturday drama "Doctor X: Age of the White Mafia" (written by Pyun Sung-geun, directed by Lee Jung-rim), set to premiere on Friday, October 9, at 9:50 PM, has released its main doctor version poster, previewing a powerful transformation for lead actor Kim Ji-won.

"Doctor X" is a refreshing medical noir depicting the activities of Gye Su-jeong (played by Kim Ji-won), a "crazy fox of the operating room" who shatters massive absurdities with uncompromised, genius surgical skills. It is the first medical genre project presented by the "SBS Cider Universe," which has driven box office success with hits such as "Taxi Driver," "The Fiery Priest," and "The Judge from Hell."

In the poster released on the 18th, Kim Ji-won gazes steadily into the camera with an unshakeable, expressionless face while wearing a doctor's gown stained with blood. While the contrast between the pristine white gown and the vivid surgical traces commands attention, her gaze filled with absolute surgical conviction and determination heralds the birth of an unprecedented character.

In the drama, Kim Ji-won is set to engulf the "white mafia" of Guseo University Hospital, who pursue power and profit with god-like surgical skills. In addition, a powerhouse lineup of veteran actors including Lee Jung-eun, Son Hyun-joo, and Kim Woo-seok is set to join, further heightening anticipation.

The production team shared, "This doctor version main poster captures the presence of Gye Su-jeong, a dark hero genius doctor who instantly overwhelms the space of the operating room. Please look forward to what path Gye Su-jeong, who will stand against the power of the Guseo University 'white mafia' with overwhelming surgical skills alone, will take in 'Doctor X,' and witness the birth of an unprecedented doctor who does not compromise within any mold."

"Doctor X," which continues the lineage of SBS's refreshing genre dramas, will premiere on Friday, October 9, at 9:50 PM.

Netflix's new series "The Scandal" is meeting global viewers today at 5:00 PM, and key points to watch have been revealed.

"The Scandal" is a series depicting a daring and dangerous love wager between Lady Jo (played by Son Ye-jin), a woman with talents that transcend the limitations of the Joseon Dynasty, and Jo-won (played by Ji Changwook), the greatest romantic in Joseon, along with the story of Hui-yeon (played by Nana), a woman entangled in their wager.

#1. A Classic Reinterpreted Through a 2026 Lens... More Multidimensional Female Narrative

The first point to watch is that director Jung Ji-woo has freshly reinterpreted the classic novel "Les Liaisons Dangereuses," which has captivated countless people since its publication in 1782, through the perspective of 2026. While multi-dimensionally addressing the desires of characters who yearn for what the era does not permit and attempt to choose their own lives, the series also meticulously portrays the relationship between Lady Jo and Hui-yeon—which did not exist in the original work—completing a much richer and more multidimensional female narrative.

"Les Liaisons Dangereuses" was previously adapted into the 2003 domestic hit film "Untold Scandal," starring Bae Yong-jun, Jeon Do-yeon, and Lee Mi-sook. Viewers can enjoy the fun of comparing the film and the series.

#2. Son Ye-jin X Ji Changwook X Nana, a Stealthy and Enthralling Psychological Warfare

An alluring ensemble unfolds, featuring Son Ye-jin (as Lady Jo) returning to a historical drama after 24 years with captivating acting, Ji Changwook (as Jo-won) portraying multi-layered emotional lines, and Nana (as Hui-yeon) taking on a historical drama for the first time in her filmography. Director Jung Ji-woo shared, "All three characters have a major gap between 'the self they show' and 'the self they hide.' The process of being caught or peeking into each other will create visual appeal through the push-and-pull psychological tension among the three."

#3. Fresh Production Breaking the Mold of Traditional Historical Dramas by Utilizing Pansori, Voiceovers, and Minhwa

The final point to watch is the fresh direction that breaks away from the mold of traditional historical dramas. Letters containing the characters' innermost thoughts are delivered in a voiceover format to heighten immersion, while pansori and minhwa elements placed appropriately maximize the unique aesthetics of the Joseon Dynasty. On top of this, there is plenty to see, ranging from alluring costumes capturing each character's traits to art direction and props that realistically implement the gorgeous and elegant scenery of Bukchon.

Combining modern narrative, dense acting by the actors, and unmatched production, the Netflix series "The Scandal" will be released via Netflix on Friday the 18th at 5:00 PM.

A special stage celebrating the musical journey of Yoon Hang-ki (83), a living legend of South Korean popular music and a pioneer of Korean rock, is set to take place.

Performance production company Live Moment announced that the Yoon Hang-ki 65th anniversary tribute concert "Thanks to You, I Am Happy" will be held at 7 PM on October 24 at the Mapo Art Center Art Hall Mac in Seoul. Beyond a commemorative show for a legendary singer who defined an era, this event is prepared as a tribute concert that brings a chapter of South Korean pop music history back to the stage.

Yoon Hang-ki has left a distinct footprint in the history of Korean popular music through his long career as a singer, composer, and singer-songwriter, including leading Key Boys, which spearheaded the early days of Korean group sounds. In particular, he has released numerous hit songs such as "Rosy Scarf," "I Am Happy," "Friend, My Friend," and "Everyone," receiving love across generations.

A large number of senior and junior artists representing the South Korean music scene will participate in this concert to celebrate Yoon Hang-ki's musical career together. Ten junior artists are scheduled to take the stage and present tribute performances, reinterpreting Yoon Hang-ki's masterpiece songs with their own musical colors.

A concert official shared, "As this is an event celebrating Teacher Yoon Hang-ki's 65-year musical journey, we are creating a stage that goes beyond simply reminiscing about the past, showing how Yoon Hang-ki's music has been carried forward and how it will be remembered in the future. It will be a time for audiences who have lived through the same era to rediscover their youth, and for younger audiences to discover the present of a great musician who shaped Korean popular music."

This concert also carries the meaning of sharing. The organizers plan to donate a portion of the concert proceeds to Korea Food for the Hungry International's support for war orphans, the Sunshine School for children from multicultural families, and the World Orphan Support Association Goread.

"Curious Stories Y" investigates the truth behind a chilling case where a woman was discovered dead inside the walk-in freezer of a large cafe in Paju.

Airing on Friday, September 18 at 8:50 p.m., SBS's "Curious Stories Y" sheds light on the mysterious murder case that unfolded at a cafe in Paju.

On September 4, a woman in her 60s who had been reported missing was found dead inside the freezer of a large cafe in Paju. The suspect is the cafe's owner, a man in his 30s surnamed Shin, who had met the victim for the first time on the day of the crime. Adding to the shock, counterfeit department store gift certificates worth a staggering 50 billion won were discovered alongside the scene.

Shin reportedly commissioned a typesetting and printing company to produce the vouchers in late July, claiming they were to be used as props for a film shoot. An acquaintance of Shin who spoke with the show's producers recalled hearing that Shin had previously engaged in voucher forgery, raising questions over whether this incident was tied to the same illicit scheme.

Suspicion of premeditation grew after it was revealed that Shin had instructed a part-time worker the day before the incident to set the freezer temperature to minus 25 degrees Celsius. However, Shin continues to deny the allegations, claiming he had no intention to kill.

Police believe the victim visited the cafe on a favor for an acquaintance working as a voucher broker and was murdered without ever understanding what was happening. What was Shin's true motive behind the 50 billion won in counterfeit vouchers and the sealed freezer?

"Curious Stories Y," uncovering the brutal truth concealed within the Paju freezer, airs on Friday, September 18 at 8:50 p.m.
