• Seventeen, Earthshaking Speech at UNESCO Headquarters "Too Young to Give Up... Will Keep Moving Forward"

  The group Seventeen made history as the first K-pop artists to take the stage at the UNESCO headquarters. On the 14th in Paris, France, at the main hall of the UNESCO headquarters, Seventeen delivered a speech and performance at the 13th UNESCO Youth Forum. Seventeen became the first K-pop artist to be allocated an entire session during the UNESCO General Assembly, conducting a session for approximately one hour. On this day, Seventeen spoke on the theme of "Youth Solidarity and Education Changing the Future of Youth and the Earth." The member who began the speech first, Seungkwan, mentioned his hometown, Jeju Island, stating, "I grew up with my own dreams on this beautiful island, although it's a faraway island from the capital, Seoul. Dreaming of a bigger world and the dream of becoming a K-pop star, performing in front of countless fans someday." He expressed his overwhelming emotions by saying, "The little boy who dreamed of the future on the island designated as a UNESCO World Natural Heritage site is now standing at the UNESCO headquarters today." Continuing, member Jun delivered his speech in Chinese, mentioning the other members, "We are each other's teachers. We practice together, create together, and have become better individuals gradually. Today, Seventeen is standing here because we faced difficult situations and didn't give up. The 13 of us have helped each other, step by step, to come this far, and we will continue to move forward," expressing their determination. Woozi reflected on the journey to this day, saying, "There were people who thought Seventeen would fail in the early days, but today, I think we are here because we didn't give up. We were too young to be discouraged. Success didn't come quickly, but the time spent burning with passion with the members was always enjoyable. The members were always cheerful, never losing their laughter in any situation. Our practice room was always filled with positive words like 'fighting' and 'a little more.' Believing that focusing on the cheerful voices of the members rather than the negative external words, I became more convinced that things would go well with these friends," mentioning each member's name with confidence. In the fall of 2016, Mingyu revealed an episode where, after receiving his first settlement, he donated 13 goats to children in Tanzania, Africa. Mingyu received a letter from the children, and he shared, "The message said, 'I will raise the goats well for my dreams.' This message stayed with us for a long time. It reminded us of the journey we've been on for our dreams. Sharing dreams is, in essence, sharing positivity and hope." Joshua promised to actively participate as a UNESCO ambassador to raise awareness about the importance of education in the current era. Vernon continued by reading the lyrics of Seventeen's songs. In the subsequent performance, Seventeen selected a total of five songs, including "World," "Darling," "Headliner," "Music's God," and "Let's Go Together," eliciting a passionate response from the audience.

  The SBS new Friday-Saturday drama 'My Demon,' which will premiere on November 24th, is a fantasy romantic comedy that revolves around the contract marriage between Kim Yoo-jung, an heiress with a demon-like temperament (played by Dodohee), and Song Kang, a demon who loses his powers in an instant (played by Jeong Gu-won). The story explores a romance filled with limited happiness and the contract with a demon that leads to both heaven and hell. This sweet yet dangerous romance with an otherworldly demon promises to bring a different kind of excitement. What stands out the most is the fantasy-like meeting of Kim Yoo-jung and Song Kang. Kim Yoo-jung plays Dodohee, a future group heiress who no one trusts and a Dodohee who loved a demon. As an outsider in the future group, Dodohee realized the essence of the world early and became pragmatic. Cynical about love, she makes a contract with the demon Jeong Gu-won, and her character experiences unimaginable changes. The appearance of the demon in front of her, whether a savior or a destroyer, raises curiosity. Kim Yoo-jung brings out Dodohee's short and sharp charm that is both prickly and tender, like a salted caramel latte. Kim Yoo-jung expressed her excitement about the role, saying, "I'm enjoying the shoot with a heart full of excitement because it's a fascinating character and story that I haven't shown before. I hope to end 2023 with 'My Demon.'" Song Kang transforms into the perfect and lethal demon, Jeong Gu-won.

He has looked down upon humans, reigning as the top predator for over 200 years, but things take a strange turn when he gets entangled with a very unusual woman, Dodohee. To prevent his own extinction, he must protect Dodohee, who took his abilities. Song Kang portrays the reverse charm of Jeong Gu-won in an ever-changing manner as he returns as a fascinating demon. Song Kang shared his enthusiasm for the project, saying, "'I'm very happy to be a part of 'My Demon,' and I'm working hard to deliver a good performance as much as you're looking forward to it.

• The actor Jung So-min reunites with Kang Ha-neul after 8 years since the movie 'Twenty' in the film '30 Days'.

  The movie '30 Days' tells the story of Jeong-yeol (played by Kang Ha-neul) and Na-ra (played by Jung So-min), who, unable to bear each other's quirks and awkwardness, eventually suffer from a shared amnesia disorder just before becoming the perfect couple. With Chuseok (Korean Thanksgiving) approaching on October 3rd, it's D-30 to the film's release. Jung So-min and Kang Ha-neul previously received acclaim for their comedic chemistry in director Lee Byeong-hun's 2015 film 'Twenty.' Now, after 8 years, they reunite as a couple in crisis who are on the verge of divorce, raising expectations for even greater comedic synergy than their previous work 'Twenty.' Jung So-min remarked, "It felt strange to naturally continue from 'Twenty' to '30 Days.' What's even more surprising is that when we made 'Twenty,' we were in our twenties, and now that we've reunited for '30 Days,' we're both in our thirties. Many people around us have discussed whether '30 Days' is a sequel or a follow-up to 'Twenty,' and even I find it interesting how the worlds of these two films seem to connect." She continued, "Back then, I used to tell people that it was a completely different story, but when I actually saw the finished product, it felt like a continuation of 'Twenty.' It was the first time I watched the film properly at the VIP screening, and in that sense, it was enjoyable in its own way. It brought back a lot of memories from 'Twenty.'" Regarding their reunion with Kang Ha-neul, Jung So-min said, "I didn't really worry about whether it would be similar to our previous work." She added, "The atmosphere on the set of 'Twenty' was great. However, while it felt like a gathering of young and energetic people having fun during 'Twenty,' '30 Days' was more comfortable in a different way because we met as individuals who had gained experience and maturity." She went on to say, "Our range of stories we could tell had expanded," and explained, "Usually, when actors meet each other on set, there's an adjustment period to get used to each other. Thanks to our previous experience working together in 'Twenty,' we were able to skip that process, which was efficient and something I appreciated from a working perspective." While they were already friends, Jung So-min also felt that their relationship became even closer during the filming of '30 Days.' She recalled, "When 'Twenty' filming ended, we were friends, but there was a bit of a strange distance. It wasn't to the extent that we couldn't talk to each other, but it ended on a warm note, more like a friendly relationship."
