Some of this stuff are things I mean to put in the last news roundup but I forgot so here's more news for you all on this fine Sunday.

There's one part of this that i'm not sure if it's considered sensitive content? I will put a disclaimer before it just in case.

Park Bom

The current saga of Bom insisting she's in a relationship with Lee Minho is still going on. Minho's agency has had to put out a second statement once again saying to the public that the two are not actually in a relationship or married.

The ironic thing is, some Knetz are actually starting to wonder if the two are dating now due to the lack of forcing her to stop from his side. His company did release two statements, and some people think that he's not aggressively trying to stop it just to be polite? (Incase she's having a mental health episode.) Though people are now starting to be suspicious if the two are/have actually ever dated due to the fact that he's not trying too hard to get her to stop.

BSH's Lady Friend

Do y'all remember this picture of BSH from last year?
1723114635-20240808-bangsihyuk.jpg
Here is my original post about this picture.

I have an update on his lady friend from this case.

After this scandal broke out and she started to get called a Prostitute by the internet she started filling lawsuits against people who were calling her that word. In total she has filed around 30 lawsuits so far and she is suing people for defamation and spreading false news and information.

In her lawsuits she ended up taking down one of the biggest cyber wreckers in Korea. He's a terrible person who is known to make hate videos and I believe also was in a controversy of making videos about deepfake videos? (I am hearing reports that he was making fun of the victims of the deepfakes and some of the victims were minors.)

Through her lawsuit his identity got revealed and has opened the door for more victims of his to file their own lawsuits against him.

The person who also was claiming to be BSH who she originally got catfished by also has gone to jail. (Her original story was that someone reached out to her claiming to be BSH. She contacted Hybe to see if it was really him or not and it wasn't, and BSH claimed he felt bad she got catfished and took her and her sister out to that restaurant as an apology?)

I would like to shout out that people still are not seeing her as that good of a person (my original post explains why she's problematic), though people are happy one of her lawsuits did good and opened up the door for other people to seek justice against this man as well.

Hybe Elevator

This isn't really news but I thought this was funny and wanted to share.

The internet has recently been perplexed by the signs on the elevators at Hybe, wondering why they are there and what exactly happened that the signs became necessary

What goes on at Hybe? The world may never know (and i'm not sure if we want too).

Hybe New Boy Group

This is my last bit of Hybe news for today.

You know how BSH and that scooter guy teamed up to make katseye? It has been announced that this year they plan on releasing their first global boy group (aka the boy version of Katseye).

People have been having mixed feelings about this.

Jinsoul's Shirt
minayoecn-loona-jinsoul.gif


Jinsoul of Loona/ARTMS has been trending on twitter due to an interesting shirt she wore to a fansign today!

I'm not going to explain much and just show you the picture:
:iwillfightyou:

It seems questionable english t-shirts are starting to pop up again in Kpop

Ateez's Wooyoung was trending awhile ago due to a shirt he wore.
He later released a statement saying he had no idea what the shirt says and just bought it because he thought it looked nice.
(We all know Hongjoong let him walk out of the house knowing damn well what it said though. He set him up.) :JudgyDubu:

The Boyz Comeback
the-boyz-ot11.gif

The Boyz announced that they will be releasing their third album "Unexpected" on March 17th!

This will be their first comeback under their new company 100. This will also be their first comeback not as a full group since the group's leader Sangyeon is enlisting into the military on March 17th as well. (Sangyeon will be participating in the album just not promoting the album due to obvious reasons).

The members have said this comeback/album will be a completely new concept they have never tried before.



Happy Birthday

Today we are wishing a very VERY happy birthday to my #1 Best Boy: Kevin Moon from The Boyz!

Happy Birthday Kevin! You bring so much happiness to our everyday lives. Your positivity shines brighter than the moon.

May you have a happy birthday and a successful new chapter to your career this year.

He posted a cover of Beyonce's BIGGER for his birthday if anyone wants to check it out!

I have a side story related to the hybe elevator news that I would like to share:
(Slightly gross/NSFW):
As someone who's worked in retail for 10 years, 5 of those being as a manager, I can personally verify that those last two elevator signs are required and necessary :iwillfightyou:

At one of my old jobs we had to permanently close down the men's fitting room due to those last two signs. The fitting rooms became a biohazard and hit a point where we just couldn't handle/fix it anymore and we had to permanently close it and block it off with signs and store hardware and stuff. (This didn't stop people from still trying to go in there and change though:sweat:)

After I quit that job the store then went though a remodel and during it the mens fitting room was permanently removed from the store forever.

Also another fun fact: The most stolen item from our store in the mens department was the underwear due to this issue. You have no idea how much mens underwear got stolen from out store.

I refused to work in the mens department for this reason. The only time I was ever over there was when my work bestie needed a day off and I was the only one who could cover.

I'm just grateful that due to the fact that it was a biohazard only our store manager was allowed clean it up, all other employees were banned from entering the fitting room and cleaning it.

Today's QOTD is:
What have you been watching lately?


It can be a movie, tv show series, anime, youtube channel, kdrama, etc.

I just need new stuff to watch so i'm interested to see what y'all are watching for recommendations.

you know they get up to some crazy shit in those elevators… especially after the year those employees have had. I wouldn’t be suprised if they were throwing hands daily and leaving little surprises :jiutea:


QOTD:
- I just started Yellowjackets! I kept getting Ella Purnell edits on tiktok and they finally lured my gay ass in.

I get it though. "There's a story behind every rule."


As for the QOTD: Currently watching the most recent season of the Great British Bake Off. 🧑‍🍳

HYBE debuting a global boy group when BigHit is right there. :oxygen:
It's been crickets from them since that cancelled boy group a few years back.
Did BSH catch the Hollywood disease from JYP?
:jy:
