Korean rockstar reveals childhood abuse by late father
Kim Yoon-ah, the vocalist for rock band Jaurim, said she was abused by her late father during childhood, adding that every member of her family was a victim. During the Sunday episode of the EBS documentary series "Sidae Mokgyeok," she spoke about her childhood. She said time seemed to stand still and she lived in constant fear that something might happen at any moment. She recalled her father assaulting her when she was in the second or third grade for failing to rinse all the soap off the dishes. Although she was only in the second grade and was unable to do the chore perfectly, she blamed herself at the time. She said the abuse usually came without warning. "My biological father was extremely violent, and every member of our family was a victim," she said. "When he died, I asked myself, 'I created music while hating this man, so what story should I tell now?' Hatred was the driving force behind my music." Kim previously spoke about the abuse during the Jan. 7, 2022, episode of Channel A's therapy talk show "Dr. Oh's Golden Clinic." She said she grew up with an abusive father who had w
Tang Wei's down-to-earth side: 'Decision to Leave' co-star recalls her farming in baggy pants
Chinese actor Tang Wei may be known for her sophisticated screen presence and glamorous image, but her "Decision to Leave" co-star Park Hae-il says the star he encountered off camera was strikingly down-to-earth — working in a field in loose-fitting farm pants and a straw hat. Park shared the unexpected story about Tang during an appearance with actor Yoo Hae-jin on the 156th episode of the YouTube talk show "Salon Drip," released Tuesday on the TEO channel. When host Jang Do-yeon asked Park about the vegetable garden at his home, the actor said it was Tang who had inspired him to start growing his own produce. Park and Tang starred together in acclaimed Korean filmmaker Park Chan-wook's 2022 romantic mystery "Decision to Leave," in which Park Hae-il played a detective investigating the death of a man whose enigmatic widow, played by Tang, becomes the focus of both his investigation and his emotions. Park Hae-il said he first visited Tang after she had been cast in the film, accompanying director Park Chan-wook to meet her. Before the visit, he had a very different picture of what Tang
Nana addresses criticism of her lips after Netflix's 'Scandal' premiere
Singer-turned-actor Nana has responded directly to criticism of her appearance in Netflix's new period drama "Scandal," saying that her personal choices may not have been right for her role as an actor. Nana addressed the reactions surrounding her appearance, particularly her lips, in a message to fans on a fan communication platform Tuesday. "If my lips made viewers uncomfortable, that's my fault," Nana said. "I think a personal choice I made may not have been the right choice for me as an actor." She also said she felt sorry that her fans had to see the negative comments directed at her. "I think it must hurt the fans who love me to see the harsh criticism of me, and that makes me feel even more sorry," she said. "I'll work hard so that we can hear good things together from now on." Her comments came after "Scandal," released on Netflix on Sept. 18, sparked online discussion over whether Nana's distinctly modern image suited her character in the Joseon-era drama. The series centers on a dangerous love triangle involving Lady Cho, played by Son Ye-jin, Cho-won, played by Ji Chang-wook, an
