In the episode, Park Myungsoo brought up a listener's story and asked, "I heard you were upset because SM Entertainment charged you for parking. Do you remember saying that?" to which Tiffany replied:

"Of course. I was upset about the parking fee. I was with SM Entertainment for 13 years."

In response, Park Myungsoo commented, "Didn't you practically build that company building? It's all because of Tiffany," to which Tiffany laughed and added, "Together with SNSD." She recalled the incident in a lighthearted manner:

"I went there for SNSD's 15th-anniversary project. As I was leaving after practice, they told me I needed to pay for parking. Even though they recognized me, they were like, 'Hold on a moment, please.'"

Hearing this, Park Myungsoo joked, "You should sue them. For me, they open the gate as soon as they see my face even if I don't have an access pass," drawing laughter from the studio. 

Tiffany Young promoted as part of SNSD under SM Entertainment. In April of this year, she joined PMG Korea to focus more on her acting career.

On the 6th, a post titled 'Failure in the moral verification of a dating reality show contestant' was uploaded to the workplace community platform 'Blind.' According to Maeil Business, the author raised allegations against a specific dating reality show contestant identified as A, claiming:

"A is a homewrecker who ruined a family and also the defendant in a marital infedility lawsuit."

According to the post, A was allegedly dating a married man identified as B, who has children, at the time when the program was being filmed, stating:

"From the time she applied for the show up until the filming period, she was actually in a relationship but pretended to be single. This was a clear act of deception toward viewers, fellow cast members, and the production staff. Her boyfriend is a married man with a child. She was well aware that the child had only recently been born."

The author added, "While filming the cohabitation part of the show, she would spend early mornings at B's residence and then return to the filming set to continue shooting." In addition, the author claimed that despite repeated requests from B's wife, A still continued the relationship and even lived with him. Furthermore, the author stated that A has not apologized to the victim despite the existence of evidence and instead committed secondary harm by sending letters mentioning possible criminal lawsuits. 

As supporting evidence, the author attached captured images from CCTV footage showing a woman believed to be A engaging in physical contact with a man inside an elevator. After being posted, the claims quickly spread across online communities and social media platforms. However, the post in question has now been deleted, and the authenticity of the claims remains unverified.

In response, a representative of the dating show stated to Sports Seoul, "We are currently verifying the facts." However, production teams generally do not have access to the participants' personal information. When it comes to verifying non-celebrities who are not widely known, they have no choice but to rely entirely on the contestant's own statements.

According to a recent report by Sports Chosun, Tablo's daughter, Lee Haru, has been credited as the sole lyricist of 'Do Your Dance,' the title track of RIIZE's upcoming mini album. 

Haru's musical talent emerged early on. Previously, she made headlines for co-writing the lyrics for KiiiKiii's 'To Me From Me' with her father and also for participating in the subtitle translation for the film 'Nirvana: The Band.' This time, she proved her growth as a songwriter by independently writing the lyrics for the title track of one of the leading 5th Gen K-Pop groups without help from Tablo. Since Tablo himself first entered the music industry as a lyricist when he was still in high school, expectations are growing regarding Haru's future path.

Born in 2010, Haru received great love through KBS2's 'The Return of Superman' where she appeared with her father, Tablo. Recently, Tablo shared through his personal channel:

"Haru is now in her second year of high school. She is currently preparing for the SAT and AP exams."

 

Meanwhile, RIIZE will release their second mini-album 'II' on the 15th. This album aims to showcase the group as they are today, containing six tracks across various genres, including 'Do Your Dance.' Following the enthusiastic response to the pre-release track 'Like a Bomb' that was already released on the 4th, anticipation is high over what kind of synergy the collaboration between Haru and RIIZE will show.

On the 8th, Kim Soohyun's agency Gold Medalist confirmed his return to Sports Kyunghyang, saying:

"Kim Soohyun is scheduled to film a commercial in the Philippines on July 14."

This commercial shoot marks his first step toward returning to the entertainment industry. Previously, Kim Soohyun had suspended his activities after Youtuber Kim Se-ui raised allegations surrounding his past relationship with the late actress Kim Saeron. As a result, filming for his upcoming Disney+ series 'Knock Off' was halted and its release was indefinitely postponed. In addition, he is currently facing lawsuits claiming damages totaling around 10 billion KRW from several advertisers, including FromBIO, Cuckoo Electronics, Trendmaker, Classys, Eider, and Mido.

However, the situation reversed when Kim Se-ui was reportedly referred to prosecutors under detention on May 26 on charges including the distribution of false information. On the 5th, Kim Soohyun's side stated, "The police investigation found grounds for charges including defamation by distributing false information under the Information and Communications Network Act, vgiolations of the Anti-Stalking Act, violations of the Special Act on the Punishment of Sexual Crimes (distribution of recordings using cameras), attempted extortion, and intimidation," and added:

"Considering the seriousness of the matter, the police have referred Kim Se-ui to the prosecution under detention"

They continued, "We sincerely thank those who spoke out on Kim Soohyun's behalf while he waited for the legal process to unfold despite not being a direct party to the case. We also deeply thank the investigative authorities who silently fulfilled their duties, conducted the investigation based solely on evidence and facts, and uncovered the truth, as well as to the judicial authorities for making a fair and strict judgment regarding the suspect's detention."

Attention is now focused on how the path for Kim Soohyun's future activities and career will unfold.

According to a recent report by SBS News, VIVIZ (Eunha, SinB, and Umji) has received a favorable ruling in the injunction stage of their exclusive contract dispute with Big Planet Made Entertainment, allowing them to continue independent activities while the main lawsuit proceeds and to freely determine their future activities.

On the 5th, the 50th Civil Division of the Seoul Central District Court fully granted VIVIZ's application for an injunction to suspend the validity of their exclusive contracts with Big Planet Made Entertainment. The court stated:

"The effectiveness of the exclusive contract between the creditors (the members) and the debtor (the agency) shall be suspended until a judgment in the main lawsuit is rendered. The debtor must not negotiate or conclude contracts with third parties against the creditors' wishes, not demand entertainment activities from the creditors, or request third parties to restrist the creditors' activities."

On March 4, VIVIZ notified the agency of the termination of their exclusive contracts due to the violations of their obligations to pay settlement earnings and provide management support which resulted in the breakdown of trust. Since then, both sides have been engaged in a legal battle over the validity of their exclusive contracts.

According to the court's decision, one of the key factors in its ruling was the agency's failure to pay settlement earnings as promised. The court determined that each VIVIZ's member was owed more than 100 million KRW, stating:

"It is reasonable to conclude that the debtor has violated their obligation to pay the settlement earnings."

During the trial, the agency argued that paying settlement earnings had become difficult due to attempts by external forces to seize management control and false media reports regarding Chairwoman Cha Gawon. However, the court rejected these claims, saying, "The alleged attempts by external forves to take over management and the false media reports are circumstances that are unrelated to the creditors."

The court also pointed out that the settlement statements provided by the agency only listed revenue and expenses without attaching supporting materials like tax invoices or receipts. The court further noted that the agency failed to provide the relevant documents or guide the members on how to review the settlement documentation.

VIVIZ's legal representative, attorney Woo Hongkyun of Shinwon Law Firm, stated, "The court granted all of the creditors' request." He added:

"The unpaid settlement amount specified in the ruling only represent a portion of the total amount. We plan to expand our claims during the main lawsuit."

VIVIZ is a group of former GFRIEND's members, Eunha, SinB, and Umji, that re-debuted in 2021 following the conclusion of GFRIEND's promotions. The three signed exclusive contracts with Big Planet Made Entertainment in 2022 and have promoted under the company since then. 

In addition to VIVIZ, artists under the One Hundred Label umbrella have reportedly been leaving one after another due to disputes involving settlement payments.

Previously, nine members of THE BOYZ also won their injunction request against One Hundred Label seeking suspension of the validity of their exclusive contracts. Former Big Planet Made Entertainment artists Taemin and BE'O signed with new agencies after notifying the agency of their contract termination. Meanwhile, Lee Mujin and Lee Seunggi also notified the company of their contract terminations due to reasons such as unpaid settlemend earnings. Lee Mujin is currently undergoing injunction proceedings to suspend the validity of their exclusive contract against the agency.

In the episode, Gong Myung mentioned about his younger brother, NCT's Doyoung:

"My younger brother is currently in the military. My birthday is in May and he gave me a huge gift. He bought me a car."

Upon hearing this, Yoo Jaesuk responded in surprise, "Your younger brother, who is in the military, bought you a car?" Gong Myung replied:

"When he bought me the car, he told me, 'Hyung, you should definitely talk about this somewhere at least once.' So I'm sharing it here today." 

Gong Myung then sent a video message to his brother, saying, "To the Chairman of our family, thank you so much. I will treasure it and use it for a long, long time. Thank you," drawing laughter from everyone.

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."

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"

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.
