Lee Joon
got incredibly honest about his past relationships in the latest episode of JTBC's 'Love War' that aired on the 7th. 

While the cast was discussing a story about a man struggling because his girlfriend wouldn't stop bringing up marriage, Lee Joon blurted out, "I can relate to him 100%," catching everyone's attention. This led Lee Hyori to ask him, "Have you ever had a girlfriend who pressured you to get married?" Lee Joon replied:

"Quite a few. Every time they talked about marriage plans, I felt like my heart was being squeezed. It really hurt, and I felt a lot of pressure." 

He explained that while he understands where they're coming from, constant talk about marriage only makes the pressure build up until it becomes unbearable. He even confessed that he has broken up with someone in the past simply because he wasn't ready for marriage, saying:

"I don't think it's right to make promises you can't keep. Saying you'll get married just because you're in a good mood or because you want to smooth things over at the moment is just irresponsible."

In this episode, Lee Joon also opened up about his dating style. He revealed that when he argues with a partner, he focuses strictly on facts rather than emotions. He said, "Even if my girlfriend cries, I calmly explain the facts."

He also made it clear that he has some very strict dealbreakers, noting, "I don't think I could date someone with extreme mood swings or someone who completely cuts off communication after a fight. I like somoene I can trust."

Interestingly, he explained that even though his MBTI personality type heavily leans toward T, he turns into a total softie when he's actually with his girlfriend. He admitted, "My voice gets higher when I'm talking to my girlfriend." 

Previously, Lee Joon dated actress Jung Somin for around three years. The two originally met on the set of the 2017 drama 'My Father is Strange.' The couple officially announced their breakup back in 2020

TWICE's Sana is officially making her acting debut on the big screen, taking on her very first acting role 11 years after she first entered the entertainment industry as an idol.

On the 8th, Korean media outlet OSEN exclusively reported that Sana recently received an offer to star in the upcoming film 'Nyangi' (working title). Her agency, JYP Entertainment, immediately confirmed the news:

"Sana has confirmed her appearance in the new film 'Nyangi'."

 

'Nyangi' is a major Korea-Japan co-production, and Sana will star as the female lead alongside famous Japanese actor Takeru Satoh. It will be directed by Kwon Hyukchan and produced by Korean companies Cokes and NPIO, along with Japan's JACON. Filming is set to begin in Japan later this year, and the entire production crew will consist of Korean staff members.

For anyone unfamiliar with Takeru Satoh, he is best known for playing the lead role in the famous Rurouni Kenshin live-action movies and has a huge fanbase in Korea thanks to hit shows like Netflix's 'First Love' and the Japanese adaptation of 'Marry My Husband.' Because he is known as a master of romance, fans are incredibly excited to see his on-screen chemistry with Sana. 

Meanwhile, Sana's shift into acting is a big step for the group. Since their debut in 2015, TWICE has kept all nine original members without any changes. Even after ten years together, they are still incredibly popular worldwide. Recently, the members have started expanding their personal careers alongside their group music activities, with Dahyun, Jeongyeon, and now Sana leading the way. 

However, group activities are not stopping anytime soon. TWICE is currently in the middle of their 'THIS IS FOR' world tour, and they will be holding their final encore concerts from the 10th to the 12th at the KSPO Dome
