Jang Geunsuk admits that he had a crush on Ha Jiwon: "I told her I loved her ... If she'd asked me out, we might have dated"

According to a recent report by Sports Chosun, Jang Geunsuk appeared as a guest on the episode of KBS2's 'Problem Child in House' that aired on the 5th and revealed that he once had a one-sided love for Ha Jiwon.

In this episode, Jang Geunsuk explained that he was the one who came up with the nickname 'Asia Prince.' He explained, "At the time, everyone kept calling me a 'Hallyu star,' but I felt it lacked individuality. I was thinking about what title would suit me when I spontaneously said, 'I'm the Asia Prince' during an appearance. Since then, the media started reffering to me as the 'Asia Prince.'"

Jang Geunsuk, who ignited the Hallyu wave through the SBS' 'You're Beautiful,' shared, "It was always my dream to debut in Japan. I had been preparing for it even before that, but that drama became my turning point."

However, he named 'Hwang Jini' as the project that remains most meaningful to him. He recalled, "At that time, I genuinely felt that if I didn't nail this project, my acting career might be over. I went straight from a children's dramas to 'Hwang Jini.' I felt like if I failed to make that leap, I might never get another chance."

Jang Geunsuk also reminisced about filming his first-ever kiss scene with Ha Jiwon in 'Hwang Jini.' He said:

"My heart was racing like crazy. It was uncontrollable. I was 20 years old back then. I had actual feelings for Ha Jiwon. I even told her. When we talked about it again about ten years later, I openly said on a broadcast that I had really liked her, that I truly loved her."

When Hong Jinkyung asked, "Would you have dated her if she asked?", Jang Geunsuk replied honestly:

"Just thinking about it makes my heart flutter. I think we probably could've dated." 

He added, "The actors themselves might not realize it, but the editing staff knows everything. People in the editing room can tell and say things like, 'They're dating,' or 'There's definitely something going on between them.'"

Jang Geunsuk later achieved another major success with 'Beethoven Virus,' but admitted that he still has some regrets about that period. He shared, "Back then, I suffered from the 'man disease.' I started working out for no reason and did everything overly aggressive just to look tough." He continued, "I was acting alongside the legendary Kim Myungmin Sunbaenim back then, and I didn't want to lose to him. Even though we worked together, I never had personal conversations or even meals with him. I inentionally kept my distance because I wanted to maintain that tension. If I could go back, I would ask him for advice and help. I still wonder why I had that strange disease back then."

Noh Seulbi frankly confesses to nose and breast plastic surgery: "Even my mom didn't know because it looks so natural"

Shaman Noh Seulbi, who gained fame through Disney+'s 'Battle of Fates,' boldly opened up about her plastic surgery procedures. 

According to MHN Sports, Noh Seulbi shared photos on her social media account along with the caption:

"Straight from the front, with a little hump from the side. I'm satisfied. Since everyone is so curious about it, I'll upload a Reels about my natural-looking silicone breast implants."

The photos showed Noh Seulbi wearing a white sleeveless top while posing for the camera. Her distinct facial features and sharp nose caught viewers' attention. She added, "Silicone and luxury goods are at their cheapest today. Nobody can tell. I was already satisfied before, but after getting a revision surgery, it doesn't even show when I lie down now." 

Regarding her breast augmentation, Noh Seulbi said:

"Someone called me a 'fake shaman with real breast', so I replied, 'I'm a real shaman with fake breast.' Even my mom didn't know about it, but I guess she'll probably find out today. Sorry, Mom."

Noh Seulbi had previously drawn attention last month after revealing that she got her nose done. At the time, she explained, "I had a nose revision surgery in Korea using a Chinese-style aesthetic. Since it was designed to match the contour of the area where I previously had forehead fillers, the results turned out really well." 

Previously, Noh Seulbi appeared on MBN's 'Teenage Parents 3,' where she shared her story of becoming pregnant at the age of 19 and later raising her daughter as a single mother after enduring domestic violence. Following her divorce, she received a spiritual calling and became a shaman. More recently, she gained attention as 'Gen Z shaman' through 'Battle of Fates,' attracting viewers with her confident personality and outspoken remarks.

Nam Jihyun admits she caught the 'celebrity disease' right after 4Minute's debut ... "I changed after the members pointed it out"

According to a recent report by Xports News, former 4Minute's member Nam Jihyun shared how she overcame the 'celebrity disease' in a video titled 'She earned 11 certifications ... Why 4Minute's Nam Jihyun became a Barre instructor' that was posted on the Youtube channel '1ma2c' on the 4th.

In the video, Nam Jihyun shared updates on her life after leaving the entertainment industry and actively working as a Barre instructor. She said, "While promoting in a girl group, I learned at a young age that nothing in this world comes free and that rewards only come through hard work."

She added, "I was always in an environment where we were constantly compared to others. Ironically, I learned how to evaluate myself objectively through the process where success is determined by rankings." She then honestly confessed:

"I used to have the 'celebrity disease.' Our debut song became a huge hit right away. As 'Hot Issue' won first place on music shows, I fell into the illusion that everything I touched would succeed. I mistakenly believed it was all because I was superior."

 

Nam Jihyun revealed that the ones who pointed out her 'celebrity disease' were none other than her fellow 4Minute's members, saying:

"I'm really thankful to the members because they told me, 'Unnie, the staff have been saying that you've caught the 'celebrity disease.' At the time, I was only thinking from my own point of view and saying things like, 'I don't want to do this.' I thanked them for letting me know and fixed my attitude immediately."

Looking back, Nam Jihyun reflected, "I have always been a fairly direct person, but I think it would have been much better if I had the mindset of, 'Thank you for giving me this opportunity." She added:

"I was immature back then. Deep down, I thought I was good at everything. I was close to becoming a monster."

"These days, I take my health supplements once a day and sometimes I can't remember whether I've already taken it. There are times when I end up taking it twice because I wasn't sure. The other times, I think, 'I already took it earlier,' only to realize that it was actually yesterday."

Kim Taegyun responded, "Regardless of age, there are many times when people just forget things." He then shared his own story, "Not long ago, I was walking up the stairs when I received a phone call. After I hung up, I stopped and thought, 'Wait, was I going upstairs or downstairs?' I was like, 'What is going on?'"

"I'm not even that old, but there are times when I open the fridge and think, 'Why did I open this?'"
