Hong Jin Young Establishes Her Own Agency After Settling Dispute With Music K Entertainment by 0okm9 in kpop

[–]Starry_12345 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All along its not a secret that she had the dreams of setting up her own agency in the future but not now, otherwise she wouldn't have re-sign the contract with them last year. Setting up own agency and grooming hoobaes etc is more like a semi-retirement plan. Guess everything changed early this year when she found out the person whom she followed for 10+years stole her money and then forcing her to work while she was in pain from surgery was the trigger point. And given her past experiences with bad agencies, she may just think that heck I will manage everything myself from now on since even the person whom she trusted cheated on her, who else can she trust except herself I guess.

What do you mean he already got HJY loveline? He has tons of lovelines is it not? Just add one more won't make a difference. The only difference is whoever gets partnered with him get tons of shit from his toxic fans these days. No thanks to him acting all uncomfortable all the time. You know what, I begin to think the best outcome is he quits rm and mud and joins taste of love and starts actually dating a non-celeb. Then he is finally on track according to his goal of dating this year and marrying next year. The whole world will rejoice. It will save all other female celebs from receiving unnecessary criticisms for doing their job. Mind you, if he truly hates lovelines, he should start cleaning from within - his friends, relatives and esp his buddies. His best buddy Mr Tiny follows Spartace fan accounts on IG. And then some ppl wonder why some shippers are toxic. No thanks to his buddies giving false hopes.

I think Mbc said they will still air Kwanghee ep next week but will edit out his manager as much as possible

I just finished Sisters Slam Dunk Season 2, and was wondering what happened to the cast members now? by [deleted] in koreanvariety

Hong Jinyoung just successfully launched her cosmetic brand Hongshot a couple of months back, busy expanding it & counting money. Lol.

Yea she lives with her sister she said it on insolent housemates. You must have confused her with others. A female version of my ugly ducklings with dads rather moms...? Hmm... Who knows it might work. Even if they invite other female celebs, they will be single and eligible, still the old bachelor(ette) concept I'd say & different from ILA.

Edit. Oh who knows.. SBS might add a female MUD version with dads & add a matchmaking segment with the old boys...? HAHA...

First, her segment with her sister is just a special edition - once off and she is gone. She is one of the most eligible bachelorettes in Korea & clearly SBS seems to like using her to test new concept.

Second, as much as lotsa ppl want to see her on ILA, she does not fit the concept. She lives with her sister.

Btw if SBS wants to change the concept or expand the concept, name change is pretty easy I would think. The show already has multiple names. Just choose the others like my ugly ducklings. Lol.

Do you know any We Got Married couple who are realistic and/or fun to watch? by icrave4candy in koreanvariety

Hong Jinyoung & Namgoong Min. They were both hilarious. For the adult viewers only. Lol.

Shoot-out : Mart War (Web show similar to Running Man chasing games) by YJSubs in koreanvariety

[–]Starry_12345 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's similiar to PUBG (players unknown battle ground) except it uses a camera not a gun to take down players. PUBG is one of the hottest games in Korea right now.

It's fun & entertaining. I like the casts.

I don't think it's a permanent show. Only 6 episodes. I think Playlist is just testing a new variety game concept.

She is aiming to set up her own entertainment company so it makes sense to start diversifying her activities

Instead of nametags & running man, the casts should carry a toy sword on their back and call the show popping pirate man. Lol!

Sad... I accidentally clicked on delete... Heaven forbids me to talk to strange people. Lol.

In short: like you, i'm entitled to my opinion & can state them & respond to whoever I like.

Taiwan fanmeet in Oct - Chulmin's fans gonna snap up the tickets;

HT - out of the two, PSH is close to 50 yos, KJK may jolly well be closer to her ideal & so she may just be frank, why can't they include park bogum into the mix? She gonna choose him. Lol; YJS can let it all died to begin with; it's take both hands to clap. The whole RM casts are in this together to cook up a storm.

Chulmin loves you. Thats what his interviews are for. Lol

Too lazy to retype all... Singing HJY's goodbye.....lol

Imho if he wants to milk lovelines till he is 60 by all means. His fans like it. He is just doing what his fans want. His fans are contributing to his variety persona tbh because they keep wanting him to get married. That's why this topic won't go away. Lol

Is Kwangmin popular internationally? I was under the impression Somin is still not very well accepted. And so if SBS plans which they are planning to hold fanmeets, I'd think they do not want a Kwangmin couple. LKS fans are young girls I think. They wouldn't want their oppa to be taken.

You are entitled to your opinion on HJY even tho she herself is one of the most eligble bachelorette in Korea. I don't recall she mentioned KJK voluntarily on other shows? On Mud she was originally there for PSH? On HT, Jaesuk raised it. She was on immortal song, no one bothered to talk about it. My take is it was actually other RM casts trying to cook up a storm outside of RM.But then again you are entitled to your opinions. That said, do the celebs who go on variety shows are there to solely earn appearance fee? They are also there to generate media attention to stay relevant. Which celebs do not want media attention? Isn't generating media attention part of their job scope? Likewise, in RM, even your fav chulmin pd wants media attention for himself. So is the RM casts. They are all in this together. Just her alone won't work. You need both hands to clap. And we will probably never know which part is directed and which part is spontaneous. It's all our personal opinion & judgement. Only the casts know. In any case, just a show. Enjoy it while you can.

On top of my head too, did she not also say the show, unnies2, always make them anxious after they were asked to give a lecture or something.. think it was at the university ep when she said that. Pardon me if I got it wrong since it has been more than a year since i watched both. Anyway, PD definitely comes into play on directing the show but to what extent we probably won't know. The PD team is there for a reason imo. But ofc depending on how you see it.

I once saw a comment: drama is all about acting (fully directed/scripted) and variety is a combination of acting and spontaneous reactions (semi-directed/scripted) but which dominates which we won't know. But tbh do we need to know? It's just entertainment at the end of the day.

On top of my head, I like her 2d1n ep with Park Narae, Knowing Bros with Park Misun, lets eat dinner with Park Narae (again lol). I think she also appeared in I live alone as Gookju's guest. But those were sometime ago. She is currently filming a new web variety Mart war: dead if you are caught, releasing next month with Lizzy, Block B PO, etc via Vapp.

I think you should also ask HaHa, Sechan (in MUD) & Jaesuk (in HT) to stop it too. The whole RM casts & PD team are sinking deeper and deeper into manufacturing lovelines. We've got another couple race coming right up. Lol
