[SBS Star] Choi Daniel Sweats as His Friend Exposes, He Listed a Sofa I Bought Him on a Resale Platform!

Actor Han Sang-jin claimed that his close friend, actor Choi Daniel, attempted to resell a costly gift he had given. Han Sang-jin and Choi Daniel guested on the February 13 episode of the YouTube show 'Pinggyego' and had fun conversations with the hosts, entertainers Yu Jae Seok and Cho Sae-ho. Cho Sae-ho mentioned that Han Sang-jin is well-known for his generosity, noting that he often shares gifts with acquaintances. Han Sang-jin said he once bought a padded jacket for a friend of Cho Sae-ho after they complimented the one he was wearing. Once, someone said they liked Han Sang-jin's golf club. The next time, he came with a fresh one and offered it to the person as a gift. , Cho Sae-ho remarked. Well, I've never received any gift from him. , Choi Daniel remarked, which took Han Sang-jin aback. You haven't received anything from me?! , Han Sang-jin exclaimed, reminding Choi Daniel about the expensive sofa he had given him. You know what? He listed the sofa on an online resale market! How crazy is that? , Han Sang-jin added, sparking some reactions from the hosts. How could you? I won't let you get away with this! , Yu Jae Seok playfully exclaimed to Choi Daniel. Okay, let me clarify. , Choi Daniel said. First of all, it's true that Han Sang-jin gifted me a sofa worth a million won (approx. 690 dollars) as a housewarming gift. Secondly, the issue with the resale market: the sofa has not been listed on the platform yet. , Choi Daniel added. But he has been constantly demanding my permission to do so! , Han Sang-jin exposed, bursting into laughter with everyone else. Choi Daniel continued to explain, It's been two years since he gifted me the sofa. I accumulated more and more stuff in the meantime, and now my place is packed. Though the sofa is very comfortable, it's a little oversized for my space. After thinking a lot about what to do with it, I considered selling it and using the money to treat Han Sang-jin to a delicious meal. , the actor shared. However, Choi Daniel's clarification was not so appreciated. That didn't make anything clearer, though. So, just as Han Sang-jin claimed, you did consider listing it on a resale market! , Yu Jae Seok pointed out. Choi Daniel then offered a further explanation to his friend, Han Sang-jin. I wasn't done. I have never actually listed the sofa on the market! I've been considering another option: giving it to a hoobae of mine. I'm sorry, but there's simply no room for it in my place! Cho Sae-ho said he could relate to Choi Daniel's situation: It's wonderful to receive gifts. However, there are times when one might wish to let go of it due to certain circumstances.

[SBS Star] It Gave Me a Lot of Thoughts Yoona Recounts Her First Solo Trip Where No One Noticed Her

Actress/K-pop girl group Girls' Generation member Yoona shared her first time alone traveling experience. On January 7, Yoona guested on 'Hyell's Club', K-pop girl group Girl's Day member Hyeri's YouTube show. Greeting Yoona enthusiastically, Hyeri related the backstory of how she asked Yoona to the show. After visiting Paris for work, I took a flight to Korea. I later learned that Yoona unnie was also on that plane. I had no idea at first. Then, about time to get off the plane, I saw some woman from a distance. Even though she had a hat and mask, anyone could tell she was a celebrity. 'Who is she?', I wondered and soon realized it was you, unnie. , Hyeri said to Yoona. I asked her if she could guest here on 'Hyell's Club', and she made it today. , Hyeri cheerfully remarked. Yoona shared an update on her recent activity, saying she has been busy preparing to return after a year-long hiatus. When Yoona said it was the longest break she took, Hyeri asked if there was a reason she needed to take some time off. Yoona replied, I have worked on seven or eight projects over two to three years before taking the break. After completing one project, I immediately began working on another one, then another one. There also were Girls' Generation's 15th-anniversary activities, such as shooting a music video and promoting the album. After pushing through all that in three years, my body was telling me I needed a recharge. , she added. During their conversation, Hyeri asked Yoona if she enjoyed traveling in her free time. Not really, because there aren't many people around me I could travel with. It's hard to find a time when my friends and I are both available. , Yoona replied. She continued, I always take a plane with staff. But there was one time I went on my own. I traveled alone for the first time after all these years, and it gave me a lot of thoughts. I realized there are too many things I still don't know yet. I drove a car by myself and flew alone during that trip. I also had my first experience with an airport bus. The bus was great, and no one seemed to notice me or anything. Since nobody seemed to care, I felt as if I were being unnecessarily self-conscious. , Yoona said. Yeah, people don't care. Everyone is busy using their phones. , Hyeri added. Yoona resumed, It made me think, have I been isolating myself for no reason? The experience got me a whole new perspective.

[SBS Star] Ji Chang Wook Reveals His Strong Desire to Star in a Romantic Comedy Project

Actor Ji Chang Wook shared his strong desire to star in a romantic comedy project during his recent press interview. On November 27, an interview with Ji Chang Wook for the Disney+ original series Gangnam B-Side was held at a cafe in Samcheong-dong, Seoul. Gangnam B-Side is a crime drama centered on three individuals―a detective and prosecutor searching for Jae-hee, a former key figure of the Gangnam club scene who has disappeared, and a mysterious broker. The three become entangled for different reasons as they pursue hidden events behind Gangnam's glamorous facade. Ji Chang Wook plays Yoon Gil-ho, a mysterious broker who once controlled the Gangnam club scene and now finds himself a suspect. Known for leaving a strong impression through numerous action roles, Ji Chang Wook candidly shared, Every time I film, I think, 'I really don't want to do action scenes.' It's so exhausting! He added, I don't particularly enjoy filming action scenes. Somehow, action has always ended up being part of my projects. Whether I like it or not, I have to do a good job and create something great when I'm working. Fortunately, many people seem to find my action scenes impactful, and they've given me a lot of compliments. Reflecting on a memorable moment, he said, During 'Gangnam B-Side,' it was manageable, but while filming 'The Worst of Evil,' I couldn't finish an action scene and just collapsed on the ground. He continued, I thought to myself, 'It must be because of my age. In the past, I could've done this 100 times, but now I'm out of breath after just this much.' But seeing older senior actors continuing to push through inspires me. It makes me think, 'I can still do more; maybe I don't need to worry about my age yet.' That thought gives me reassurance. Expressing his aspirations, he exclaimed, I really want to do a rom-com. I've been keeping an eye out for opportunities because I want to do one so badly. He added, As for action, well, if they pay me, I'll do it. If a good project comes along, I won't say no. Even though I claim to dislike action, if the role and the script are compelling, I'll take it. (Credit= JTBC Welcome to Samdal-ri, Walt Disney Company Korea) (SBS Star)

[SBS Star] Lee Hyewon Shares How Ahn Junghwan Broke His Club's Promise to Marry Her

Former Miss Korea Lee Hyewon shared that her husband, former soccer player Ahn Junghwan broke his promise with his club to marry her. On October 23 episode of MBC's talk show Radio Star, Lee Hyewon joined as a guest. During the talk, the hosts said to Lee Hyewon, We heard that in the past, when you and Ahn Junghwan were dating, he was busy trying to win over someone other than you. Lee Hyewon responded, It was my dad. I was really young back when he wanted to marry me; I was in my third year of university. It was a bit early for marriage. So, my family was kind of against me marrying him―not because of Ahn Junghwan as a person, but more like, because he was an athlete. It was before the legendary 2002 World Cup, and his future after retirement was uncertain. That's why they were against it. She continued, At that time, I had a 10 PM curfew. As soon as the clock hit 9 on our date, he'd rush to send me home, trying to impress my dad. When he came to meet my family for the first time, he cut his long hair as well. You'd think he would've discussed that with me about it first, but he didn't. He just cut it without saying anything. Another guest, actress Oh Yoon-ah, was surprised and asked, You mean that hairstyle that got him really popular? That iconic hairstyle? Nodding, Lee Hyewon said, Yeah, that one. He had actually promised his club that he wouldn't cut his hair, but he broke that promise to look more presentable for my family. When he walked toward us, I started tearing up. He was so nervous, sweating through his shirt in front of my parents. I felt both sorry and grateful. All kinds of feelings were wrapped up in those tears. The more I thought about spending my life with him, the more emotional I got. Lee Hyewon and Ahn Junghwan married in 2001. They have two children: their daughter, Ahn Ri-won, born in 2004, and their son, Ahn Ri-hwan, born in 2008. (Credit= MBC Radio Star, 'leehyewon2002' Instagram) (SBS Star)
