On May 14, KBS said Song Joong Ki has been cast in “Love Cloud.” Regarding scheduling, a KBS official said it is scheduled for the first half of next year.

“Love Cloud” tells the story of a former flight instructor and a former trainee pilot who, seven years later, meet again as an air traffic controller and a pilot, respectively, in Jeju, where even love becomes weather.

Song Joong Ki will play Kang Woo Joo, an air traffic controller. Park Ji Hyun is in talks for the role of the female lead Ahn Ha Nee.

Through this project, Song Joong Ki marks his return to a KBS drama, his first since KBS 2TV’s “Descendants of the Sun.” He previously gained widespread popularity domestically and internationally through the series, which became a major hit.

Actress Lee Min Jung is getting ready for a solo trip to Europe, but not everyone at home is excited about it.

On May 12, 2026 (KST), the actress uploaded a new video to her YouTube channel, titled “Solo Trip To Europe Without The Kids… What Should I Wear? Leaving This Week.” In the video, Lee Min Jung revealed that she was finally taking a trip to Europe on her own—though she was facing significant opposition from her family.

I’m finally going to Europe by myself… But there’s a lot of opposition at home right now. Jun Ho’s opposition is strong, and my husband’s opposition is strong, too. Seo Yi doesn’t know yet.
— Lee Min Jung

Ahead of the trip, Lee Min Jung prepared a styling video, explaining that many people likely struggle with what to pack and wear when traveling overseas. For the episode, she tried on various outfits while receiving advice from veteran stylist Seo Soo Kyung.

One outfit in particular immediately came with a story: a red backless dress. Lee Min Jung explained that she had purchased the dress two years ago after giving birth, during a trip to the United States. However, according to her, she barely got to wear it because of her actor husband, Lee Byung Hun.

My husband wouldn’t let me wear it, so I only wore it once, and that was it. I don’t know why he won’t let me wear backless outfits. I like them. They’re cool and breezy.
— Lee Min Jung

Lee Min Jung went on to try several other outfits for the trip, including a trench jumpsuit, a white lace dress, a light purple tweed dress, an orange silk blouse, and a scarf top!

After a long break, Kim Seo-hyung is finally back on the screen 🔥 Joining SBS’s upcoming drama DASH, alongside Shin Hae-sun and Kim Jun-han..this lineup is already looking powerful.

Synopsis : 'DASH' depicts the journey of prosecutor Min Hwa-young as she pursues the truth caught between love and justice while confronting her husband, who stands at the center of a murder case.

It is under consideration for scheduling in SBS's Wednesday-Thursday drama slot in 2027.

Synopsis: 'The Obedient Killer' tells the story of a delicate woman, whose sole life plan was to be a devoted wife and good mother, who takes an unplanned job to survive outside the greenhouse.

At a suspicious company that claims to encourage women's entry into the workforce, a demure woman who has lived silently without a sound or trace as an obedient daughter and a submissive, devoted wife discovers an unexpected talent: the ability to eliminate a person without a sound or a trace. Set in the 1970s and 1980s, the genre is a pure and innocent noir.

Kim Da-mi plays the role of Go Dal-bun. She is a character who, despite being an obedient wife, is divorced and jumps into the suspicious job market to bring her young daughter back.

Lee Chung-ah plays Lee Hwa-ra, codenamed Miss Lee. With a sophisticated short haircut and a perfectly tailored, neutral-colored suit, she speaks in a dry tone and has a cold expression. She is a character who hardens both body and mind to become the best, rejecting soft-hearted love.

Jo Ah-ram transforms into Gye Sook-hee, codenamed Miss Gye, also known as the "fighting cock." A born fighter, she insists on delivering her words precisely and must beat up anyone who gets in her way. She is a troublemaker who fought to defend what was right, only to find no one left when she looked back.

Synopsis : This mystery series depicts the story that unfolds when Yoon Tae-joo, a materialistic lawyer, encounters a mysterious app called "Code" that grants wishes.

"Code" is based on the popular Taiwanese drama "Code: The Story of the Undead." The original series gained immense popularity when released in seasons in 2016 and 2019, and also garnered attention in Japan when it was remade into a drama starring Kentaro Sakaguchi.

Directed by the writer and director of Weak Hero Class 1 and 2.

YoonA has been cast as the lead in the Korean remake of the acclaimed Japanese drama Unnatural, marking a major acting transformation.

According to reports on May 9, YoonA has been cast as the female lead in the Korean adaptation of Unnatural.
In the drama, YoonA will play Im Do Eun, a forensic doctor working at UDI. The character is described as someone with sharp eyes, a bright smile, and a personality that is both gentle and strong. Known for her huge appetite, fiery temper, and relentless persistence, Im Do Eun emerges like a rising star within the forensic industry. Her naturally warm and upright personality also allows her to maintain good relationships with many people around her.

In the original Japanese series, the role was famously portrayed by Satomi Ishihara.
Unnatural is a mystery medical drama that follows forensic experts as they uncover the hidden truths behind suspicious and unnatural deaths. After airing on Japan’s TBS network in 2018, the series became hugely popular not only in Japan but also among Korean drama fans.
The original production achieved major critical success, sweeping six awards at the 96th Drama Academy Awards in Japan, including Best Drama, Best Actress, Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenplay, Best Director, and Best OST.

The Korean remake will be directed by Park Yoo Young, who previously helmed ENA dramas The Kidnapping Day and Ms. Incognito.
Industry attention surrounding YoonA’s next move had been especially intense following the consecutive success of her previous projects. After starring in the 2023 JTBC hit King the Landand the 2025 tvN drama Bon Appétit, Your Majesty, both of which performed strongly both domestically and internationally, YoonA solidified her status as one of Korea’s most reliable leading actresses.

Notably, instead of choosing another romantic comedy, YoonA is now attempting a major acting transformation by stepping into a darker genre-driven series centered on forensic investigation and mystery.

In his interview in 'You Quiz on the Block', the actor said:

“Our house is a little small. The laundry is on the first floor and the stairs were very steep. It’s a narrow two-story house. I used to live with my grandmother, but she always had to go up the stairs and it was very uncomfortable because snow piled up there in winter. Seeing that, I thought I wanted my family to live in a comfortable house rather than a good one.”

Byun Woo-seok continued:

“I shared the room with my grandmother and we slept together. That’s why I felt so sorry. I feel sorry when I can’t think of her because I’m busy, then I will often think about her once or twice out of a sudden. I want to think of her every day. I have many memories with my grandmother.”

The actor confessed:

“There was only one TV so I always fought with my grandmother because she wanted to watch ‘National Singing Contest’ but I wanted to watch something else. At some point, my grandmother got injured and it worsened as she got older. My parents called me and said, ‘I think she needs to go to the hospital’ and I went there. I was a high school senior and was preparing for the university entrance exam back then so I was a little tired. I saw my grandmother and told her that I would sleep a little bit in the car. As soon as I got off the elevator, I received a call. My grandmother passed away.”

He shed tears after saying:

“The moment I decided to make a decision for my comfort when I could spend more time seeing her and being in the same space with her was the most regrettable moment for me. I think grandmother is still by my side. I’m very lucky in everything I do.”

Byun Woo-seok shared:

“I’m so lucky to have come this far and I believe my grandmother is always supporting me. I really think so.”

Newly married Ok Taecyeon arrived in Singapore
To celebrate the grand reopening of Panerai's brand-new boutique at ION Orchard, Taecyeon made a personal appearance at the scene on the morning of April 30.

As Panerai's brand friend recently launched in the Korean market.

When Lee Jung Eun was working part-time jobs to make ends meet, her three actor colleagues lent her nearly $50,000.

Lee Jung Eun was a struggling actress until she was 40 years old, and worked all sorts of part-time jobs in order to make ends meet.

In an old interview ;

Lee Jung Eun revealed that when she barely made 200,000 won (~$170 USD) in a year, she called up a few of her fellow actors for help.

19 years ago, I didn’t have enough money, so I called Shin Ha Kyun, Woo Hyun, and Ji Jin Hee for help, and they generously lent me money. I borrowed 50 million won (~$43,000 USD) from them.

– Lee Jung Eun

Lee Jung Eun added that she thought she could pay them back quickly, but that it took her 13 years to do so.

She even explained what she did so that she could express her gratitude to her fellow colleagues.

I wrote down their names on a piece of paper. Just in case I died away from home, I kept their names with me so that my mother or father could express my gratitude instead.

– Lee Jung Eun

Fans responded to this gesture in awe with comments such as “That’s a lot of money, so it’s impressive they lent it to her so willingly” and “It’s also impressive that Lee Jung Eun kept their names with her for such a long time“.

Actor Park Dong Bin (real name Park Jong Moon) has passed away at the age of 56.

Park Dong Bin passed away on April 29 at the age of 56. The cause of death was not reported. Park Dong Bin was a veteran actor with more than 30 years of experience, including roles in famed movies Taegukgi: The Brotherhood of War and The Huntresses, and K-Dramas Cafe Minamdangand He Is Psychometric.

He was also well known for his famous scene in K-Drama It Was Love, where he was so surprised at the news he just heard, he forgot he was drinking orange juice and it spilled out of his mouth. The scene was then parodied in various television shows.

In 2020, he married actress Lee Sang Yi and the couple gave birth to their daughter in January 2023. May he rest in peace.
