my fav jisung watches, answering @stars-after-dark since i know i'll get hit by character limit. based off my list of what shows of his i've seen here.

new heart is absolutely a must. jisung is so baby-faced, but i actually really, really loved the show a lot that i bought it on dvd. he also co-stars with kim minjung, so it's so wild to see them young in contrast to the devil judge. they play their characters so well, that you don't get caught up on the fact that it's the same people.

kim soo ro - i mention this not bc i think it's great by any means. it's entertaining, frustrating plot-wise, but if you do want eye-candy, this is it. i'm literally not even sorry about that.

ps partner/watcha wearin is SO GOOD. like it's so good, but i think it freaks ppl out bc it's a a romcom about a dude who accidentally has phone sex with a woman. so there's a few sex scenes in it, but i think it lends itself well to the plot of the story rather than being there out of unnecessary reasons. i also love a good romcom, especially those with unique plots. this is one of them.

kill me, heal me. it's a bit corny in places, but i do think the heart of the story and the different characters you mean are so incredibly lovely. jisung's character has DID, and you can't help but love each of his identities. perry park has such a soft spot on me. (he also brings out perry's voice as an easter egg in the devil judge!!)

the vampire lives next door to us is a short film. it's on youtube, so a very easy watch and a very interest ending that pulls on the heartstrings. it seems silly at first, but there's meaning behind it.

entertainer is what you'd wanna watch if you just want to see a pretty jisung, lmao. that and his group of baby boys. it's actually pretty good, though i will say the one aspect i didn't like is the one chick meant to be the love interest is very minor-coded (seems helpless, innocent), so that's a bit uh odd. but i'd say still watch it bc the rest of the plot is good.

(everyone says watch defendant, but i think it dragged on too long and wasn't as good. it's his most well-known role, i believe. up to you to see it. it's not a bad watch, just so-so for me).

familiar wife and doctor john kinda live on the same level for me. i don't love them, but i don't hate them. i have a very big pet peeve with familiar wife that i've talked about before on here, but i'd only be able to share if you've see it bc it'd ruin the whole plot. jisung is very good at humor though! doctor john is good/interesting. i do feel like they wrapped up the ending in one ep.

adamas is...... how to explain this one. i love the twins (my icon is one of em). they are my loves, nearly on par with kang yohan. i think the issue with this show is that you feel like it's leading you into a very big plot or big reveal, and it doesn't really do that? it's shrouded in mystery, and it's so hard to explain. i still think it's interesting enough to watch, esp maybe on a rewatch (as i want to do) bc i feel like there might be things that get missed with the storytelling. the ending is 😭 so be prepared. it's a bit slower paced storytelling, so it may be really hard to sit and watch, esp the first few eps. but if anything, get through it for the twins!!!!!! i love them!!!!!!!

Spoilers

Kim Minjung needs to stop taking feminist, icon roles that kill it onscreen but have sad endings. I have seen her in exactly TWO shows.

Both times, she's been a queen.

Both times, she's died.

She needs to stop. She needs to stop. She needs to stop!!!!

1 MAY — April saw comebacks from Platinum, Candy, and Mirae and a solo debut by Hayi. In the television sector, Hyojung, Hayi, and Jace were on-trend.

COMEBACK

PLATINUM made their comeback with single album Fate Number For and dual title tracks “Really Really” and “Fool”. The group held a three-day concept showroom leading up to the comeback.  “Really Really” debuted and peaked at #1 on the weekly digital Circle Chart in its first week, while “Fool” debuted and peaked at #6. “Really Really” became popular on social media, quickly trending on apps such as TikTok and Instagram for its catchy chorus, and netted five wins on music shows.

EQUINOX released Japanese studio album Bloom and single “Wildside” and debuted at #5 on the Oricon Albums Chart.

POLARIS released their first new music since hit single “Dynamite” with Japanese single “Film Out”. The track served as the ending theme for the film Signal and debuted at #1 on both the daily and weekly Oricon Singles Chart.

Making good on BC Entertainment’s promise to continue to evolve, CANDY came back with mini-album Fancy You and lead single “Fancy”. “Fancy” peaked at #3 on Circle’s weekly digital chart and the mini-album charted at #2 and #1 of the week in South Korea and Japan respectively. “Fancy” took home three music show wins.

MIRAE made her solo comeback with “Siren”, which went on to top the Circle Chart for two weeks (April 16 - 22 & April 23 - 29). “Siren” took home a grand total of six music show wins.

CATALYST made their return in Japan with album Piece and its single “Puzzle”. The album sold more than 55,000 copies in Japan and came in at #3 on the Oricon weekly Japanese albums chart.

Lily member HAYI made her solo debut this month. Previewed with pre-release single “5 Star”, Holo was released on April 29 with main single “Solo”. “Solo” quickly rose to the top of the charts as the month came to an end.

LILY became the next artist to release a song through Homebase’s FM202.3 project. “Everybody Ready” was released onto streaming sites with the music video available exclusively on the Homebase app for paying subscribers until the end of May.

TELEVISION

TVING program Transit Love came to an end in April. The program featured Lily’s HAYI and Selene’s HYOJUNG as panelists and trended several times during its run among online communities.

tvN’s Sixth Sense, also featuring HAYI, came to an end as well. The final episode earned nationwide Nielsen ratings of 3.339%, placing it second in its time slot.

FASHION & BRANDS

Gucci announced its new Korean brand ambassador: Selene’s HYOJUNG. The idol-actress starred in a new campaign film for the brand on their Korean website.

After returning to Calvin Klein as the brand’s face last year, Polaris’s TAEYONG was officially announced as Calvin Klein’s new global ambassador in April. The brand released their new global jeans and underwear campaign featuring the “icon” along with the announcement.

Selene’s MIRAE took to the runway for Louis Vuitton’s pre-fall show in Seoul.

OTHER

Equinox’s MINJUNG and Polaris’s TAEYONG both performed as part of the lineup of this year’s Coachella Music and Arts Festival. Minjung performed Saturday of the second weekend while Taeyong performed Sunday night both weekends.

TAEYONG released a cover of Daniel Caesar’s “Won’t Live Here” through his personal Soundcloud account.

vogue magazine cover interview

1. you’re styled by dior today — so, in your own words, what is dior to you?

maria grazia chiuri has been nothing short of amazing during my partnership with dior. to me, dior is essence. not defined by a classy timeless touch, but something of essence whether it’s playing with new trends or bringing back the old iterations of past designs. they mix it up to create their own color and scent — they’re undefined by limitations. i think that’s what draws me to the brand in the first place. 

2. a longstanding fashion icon with your various partnerships over the years being a global ambassador for dior, and releasing successful solo albums — what can you say now about taking over netflix with your new drama, our beloved summer?

i never expected myself to ever act — sometimes, i feel like i’m acting in my day to day life. maybe it’s because i resonate a lot with kook yeon soo, or i’m just in a stage at my life where reading off a script doesn’t feel like second nature anymore, but this drama has meant a lot. i can only be grateful that it’s been accepted by the public in such a way. i don’t know if i’ll take over any more series, but i can assure you this one remains close to my heart.

3. the piece is titled ‘we don’t know minjung yet’, why do you think the piece is surrounded around the mystery of you?

if i knew, would there be a piece in the first place? i don’t know why people believe there’s a mystery about who i am — i let myself show in pieces. it’s like a puzzle game for the public to put together to decipher who i am. if you’re good at mind riddles and word tricks, maybe you do know me. if not, then you don’t. i don’t want to define who i am with my own words.

4. but if you had to, how would you describe seo minjung?

someone who feels like pastels on mondays, then monochrome on thursdays. someone who spends the weekends painting memories in watercolors, only to forget the rest of the canvas on a tuesday. i’m a contradiction, but isn’t everyone?

5. being a veteran in this industry, what can you say you took away from your career?

you say it like my career’s over — it’s not over, at least i don’t think so. i’ve met lots of people, and i learn each day how to navigate different intrapersonal relationships while managing interpersonal ones. something they like to call ballance.

6. after a long day, how do you like to relax?

when i tell people, they think it’s sad. but i like to sit down after a long day, on the sofa with my dog, and then open up a bottle of chamisul soju. i drink from a soju glass and pretend like i’m having a conversation with someone who knows every facet of me — who else knows me better than myself?

7. you’ve had lots of memorable moments in your career, what do you think fans remember you most as?

the rainbow dress from peekaboo — i feel like that’s when people knew my name. to know someone’s name is intimate, don’t you think? maybe not a fashion trend, but at least it stuck in people’s minds.

8. lastly, what is the best advice someone has given you?

one time a fan told me that it’s okay to cry. it’s okay to be honest. it’s okay to do what makes you happy — in the moment, people don’t let words comfort them because it doesn’t apply when you feel your heart crack. but in hindsight, you look back and realize the only way it was possible to get through those difficult times was because you allowed yourself to cry, feel emotions, and be honest with yourself.
