              <content:encoded><![CDATA[<html><head></head><body><p>The highly anticipated film “Wild Sing” has unveiled stylish photo card posters featuring its cast!</p>

<p>“Wild Sing” is a comedy movie that follows the story of TRIANGLE, a once-popular co-ed trio that fell into obscurity after an unfortunate incident. The film depicts their chaotic journey as they attempt to reunite and make a comeback.</p>

<p>On May 22, TRIANGLE members Hyun Woo (Kang Dong Won), Sang Gu (Um Tae Goo), and Do Mi (Park Ji Hyun), along with their rival soloist Choi Sung Gon (Oh Jung Se), simultaneously released the film’s OST through major Korean music platforms and global streaming services.</p>

<p>The OST includes TRIANGLE’s second album title track “Shout It Out” and Choi Sung Gon’s ballad “I Like You.”</p>

<p>Alongside the OST release, four photo card posters were also unveiled. TRIANGLE’s posters lean heavily into a futuristic Y2K aesthetic, complete with bold smoky makeup, metallic outfits, and oversized silhouettes that perfectly recreate the late-1990s vibe. Kang Dong Won, who plays leader Hyun Woo, exudes powerful charisma, while Um Tae Goo’s Sang Gu commands attention with his rough energy. Park Ji Hyun, as center member Do Mi, completes the group’s distinct identity with her confident aura.</p>

<p>In contrast, Oh Jung Se’s poster as Choi Sung Gon creates an entirely different mood. Wearing a white angora knit sweater and a hairstyle covering one eye, he channels the mysterious celebrity image that was popular at the time, radiating a wistful and innocent charm.</p>

              <content:encoded><![CDATA[<html><head></head><body><p>“Fifties Professionals” has unveiled a glimpse of the incident from 10 years ago that completely changed the fates of its three main characters!</p>

<p>“Fifties Professionals” is an action-comedy about three seemingly ordinary but secretly dangerous middle-aged men who are brought back into action by destiny. The three men, who once reigned at the top of their respective fields, find themselves exiled to the remote island of Yeongseon after a mysterious incident. There, they begin a bittersweet and comedic quest to uncover the truth about the fateful day from 10 years ago that changed their lives.</p>

<p>The newly released stills ahead of the premiere capture National Intelligence Service black ops agent Jung Ho Myung (Shin Ha Kyun) confronting North Korean operative Bulgae (Oh Jung Se) aboard a passenger ship during a violent rainstorm.</p>

<p><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1843096" src="/api/proxy/hash-image?hash=921f8ecbd3cf8df1" alt="" width="1024" height="1280" srcset="https://0.soompi.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/22042302/Fifties-Professionals-1-2.jpeg 1080w, https://0.soompi.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/22042302/Fifties-Professionals-1-2.jpeg 300w, https://0.soompi.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/22042302/Fifties-Professionals-1-2.jpeg 768w, https://0.soompi.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/22042302/Fifties-Professionals-1-2.jpeg 540w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"> &nbsp;<img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1843099" src="/api/proxy/hash-image?hash=b99d44d102dae8c1" alt="" width="1024" height="715" srcset="https://0.soompi.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/22042331/Fifties-Professionals-4-2.jpeg 1080w, https://0.soompi.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/22042331/Fifties-Professionals-4-2.jpeg 300w, https://0.soompi.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/22042331/Fifties-Professionals-4-2.jpeg 768w, https://0.soompi.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/22042331/Fifties-Professionals-4-2.jpeg 540w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></p>

<p>Notably, the stills are of Bulgae before he lost his memory. Known as North Korea’s ultimate human weapon, viewers are left wondering why he was sent on a mission disguised as a woman. The situation becomes even more unpredictable with the appearance of Kang Beom Ryong (Heo Sung Tae), the second-in-command of the Hwasan gang.</p>

<p>According to the production team, the scene depicts the moment 10 years ago when the three characters became entangled while attempting to secure evidence proving collusion between a high-ranking North Korean official and Han Kyung Wook (Kim Sang Kyung), the first deputy director of the National Intelligence Service. The incident ultimately changes the course of all three men’s lives forever.</p>

<p>The story centers on three men from completely different worlds—an NIS agent, a North Korean operative, and a notorious gangster—who were once considered the best in their fields before fate brings them back together. As their contrasting backgrounds collide, the drama promises both tension and laughter. After finally settling into ordinary lives beyond their glory days, the three men are unexpectedly thrust into another dangerous mission, kicking off a full-fledged fight for survival.</p>

<p>Notably, rather than relying on flashy superhero-style action, “Fifties Professionals” focuses on grounded hand-to-hand action and relatable everyday comedy. Though their bodies are no longer what they used to be, the characters’ desperate determination to keep going is expected to deliver both humor and heartfelt relatability.</p>

              <content:encoded><![CDATA[<html><head></head><body><p>“My Royal Nemesis” has unveiled more stills ahead of tonight’s new episode!</p>

<p>“My Royal Nemesis” is a romantic comedy starring Lim Ji Yeon as Shin Seo Ri, a struggling actress who is suddenly possessed by the spirit of a notorious villainess from the Joseon era. Heo Nam Jun stars as Cha Se Gye, a ruthless chaebol heir who is known as a “monster created by capitalism.”</p>
<h2>Spoilers</h2>
<p>In the newly released photos, Shin Seo Ri appears on a rooftop in broad daylight completely covered in bright red blood smeared across her hands and face. The scene is part of an “evil-averting ritual” she performs in an effort to survive safely in the unfamiliar and frightening modern world of the 21st century.</p>

<p>Despite her bizarre appearance with blood splattered all over her skin, Shin Seo Ri’s bright smile—contrasting with her fierce determination to survive at all costs—creates a hilariously chaotic charm that is both menacing and adorable.</p>

<p>Another still captures Geum Bosal (Oh Min Ae), who exudes an intense spiritual aura while fully dressed in traditional shaman attire. Adding another comedic touch, trendy tanghulu is proudly placed on the otherwise solemn ritual table, seemingly symbolizing Shin Seo Ri’s love for sweets.</p>

<p>The stills also capture Seo Ri casually reaching out her blood-covered hand while Gu Chong Mu (Park Jin Woo) recoils in horror and falls backward, further heightening anticipation for the episode.</p>

              <content:encoded><![CDATA[<html><head></head><body><p>Kim Hyang Gi is at risk of having her identity exposed in the upcoming episodes of “Absolute Value of Romance”!</p>

<p>“Absolute Value of Romance” tells the story of high school student Yeo Eui Ju (Kim Hyang Gi), who secretly writes a BL novel featuring her handsome teachers as the main characters. However, when she winds up running into these teachers in real life at unexpected moments, her once-peaceful school life takes a turbulent turn.</p>
<h2>Spoilers</h2>
<p>The upcoming episodes will depict the biggest crisis yet for novelist “Lee Mook,” whose true identity as Yeo Eui Ju is on the verge of being exposed to the entire school after remaining hidden for so long.</p>

<p>In the newly released stills, Eui Ju appears visibly anxious as she cautiously watches Eun Ha Soo (Noh Joo Eun), while the uneasy confrontation between Ga Woo Soo (Cha Hak Yeon) and Ha Soo creates a suffocating atmosphere. Ha Soo’s subtle but piercing expression with crossed arms suggests that the rumors have evolved beyond mere suspicion into certainty.</p>

<p>But the crisis does not end there. Another still shows Eui Ju and Woo Soo standing side by side with tense expressions after being summoned to the principal’s office, hinting that the secret she desperately tried to hide may finally have surfaced. Adding to the suspense are scenes of Noh Da Ju (Kim Jae Hyun) and Jung Ki Jeon (Sohn Jeong Hyuck) deeply absorbed in reading Eui Ju’s novel “We Were Friends,” foreshadowing a major ripple effect that could shake the entire school.</p>

              <content:encoded><![CDATA[<html><head></head><body><p>Shin Hae Sun and Gong Myoung will finally start dating for real on the next episode of “Filing for Love”!</p>

<p>tvN’s “Filing for Love” is a romantic comedy that tells the story of Noh Ki Jun (Gong Myoung), the ace of a major corporation’s audit department, who is suddenly demoted to the team that handles internal misconduct. He winds up becoming increasingly entangled with Joo In Ah (Shin Hae Sun), a tough and eccentric team leader who is hiding a secret.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Spoilers</h2>

<p>On the previous episode of “Filing for Love,” Joo In Ah firmly turned down Jeon Jae Yeol (Kim Jae Wook), who had been desperately trying to get her back. Just as she was regretting not having been more honest with Noh Ki Jun about her feelings, he dramatically appeared before her, having rushed all the way to Jeju Island to see her after realizing how she truly felt. Instead of hiding her feelings as she always had, Joo In Ah immediately walked up to Noh Ki Jun and kissed him first.</p>

<p>Newly released stills from the drama’s upcoming episode offer a sneak peek of the blossoming romance between the now-official couple. After confirming their feelings for one another, Joo In and Noh Ki Jun go on a romantic trip to the seaside, where they lovingly gaze at each other on the beach.</p>

              <content:encoded><![CDATA[<html><head></head><body><p>Netflix’s upcoming film “Husbands in Action” has announced its release date with a new trailer and poster!</p>

<p>Helmed by “6/45” director Park Gyu Tae, “Husbands in Action” is an action-comedy about an ex-husband and a current husband begrudgingly teaming up to save a wife who’s been kidnapped by a dangerous criminal organization.</p>

<p>Notably, the film marks the reunion of Jin Sun Kyu and Gong Myoung, who previously starred together in the box-office hit “Extreme Job.” Jin Sun Kyu will play Chung Sik, a hot-headed detective who charges headfirst into every case, including the mission to rescue his ex-wife. Gong Myoung will star as Min Seok, a gentle veterinarian who is the current husband of Chung Sik’s ex-wife—and who is determined to save his beloved spouse.</p>

<p>Netflix has now announced that “Husbands in Action” will be released on June 19.</p>

<p>The newly released poster offers a glimpse of the unlikely partnership between Chung Sik and Min Seok, two comically different men who seem like they would never, under any circumstances, wind up on the same team. Yet despite their differences, the duo is in sync and prepared for a fight, standing back-to-back while facing off against an unseen adversary.</p>

<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="1080" height="1350" src="/api/proxy/hash-image?hash=50777eaef7459027" alt="" class="wp-image-1843023" srcset="https://0.soompi.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/21213227/Husbands-in-Action.jpeg 1080w, https://0.soompi.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/21213227/Husbands-in-Action.jpeg 300w, https://0.soompi.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/21213227/Husbands-in-Action.jpeg 768w, https://0.soompi.io/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/21213227/Husbands-in-Action.jpeg 540w" sizes="(max-width: 1080px) 100vw, 1080px"></figure>

<p>Meanwhile, the accompanying teaser trailer reveals the circumstances of how the two men reluctantly join forces. Towards the start of the trailer, Chung Sik and Min Seok get on each other’s nerves during an awkward run-in at their daughter’s English public speaking contest, where they both claim the title of Yeon Ju’s father.</p>

<p>However, the friction between them is quickly forgotten when Chung Sik receives a phone call informing him that their wife and daughter have been abducted. Despite their incessant bickering, the two begin to find their rhythm as partners, and this chaotic duo soon showcases flawless teamwork as they set out to rescue their family.</p>

              <content:encoded><![CDATA[<html><head></head><body><p>Stray Kids’ Seungmin will not be joining his bandmates on stage at this year’s Governors Ball in New York.</p>

<p>Back in March, JYP Entertainment announced that Seungmin had been diagnosed with a suspected stress fracture in his left ankle.</p>

<p>On May 21, JYP Entertainment shared a new update on Seungmin’s recovery, explaining, “Following additional examinations, he was diagnosed with a stress fracture in his left ankle, and is currently focusing on treatment and recovery while undergoing further detailed examinations regarding related symptoms and potential associated conditions.”</p>

<p>The agency went on to state that because Seungmin is “minimizing long-duration flights and travel in confined spaces” for the sake of his recovery, he will be unable to attend the upcoming Governors Ball, where Stray Kids is scheduled to perform as a headliner on June 6.</p>

<p>JYP Entertainment’s full English statement is as follows:</p>

<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>Hello, this is JYPE. We would like to inform you about Stray Kids member Seungmin’s schedule.</p>

<p>Back in March, Seungmin experienced pain in his left ankle and was advised of the possibility of a stress fracture, after which he has been receiving ongoing treatment. Following additional examinations, he was diagnosed with a stress fracture in his left ankle, and is currently focusing on treatment and recovery while undergoing further detailed examinations regarding related symptoms and potential associated conditions.</p>

<p>Although he has been avoiding strenuous physical activities and taking sufficient rest in his daily life, in order to focus on a full recovery, he will be minimizing long-duration flights and travel in confined spaces. Accordingly, Seungmin will continue to focus on sufficient rest, ongoing treatment, and monitoring his recovery progress.</p>

<p>As a result, we regret to inform you that Seungmin will unfortunately be unable to attend The Governors Ball Music Festival, which will take place in New York on June 6 (local time), and the performance will proceed with the remaining 7 members of Stray Kids. We sincerely apologize to the fans who have been looking forward to the performance for this sudden news.</p>

<p>We will continue to prioritize our artist’s health above all else and do our utmost to ensure that he receives more proactive and professional treatment moving forward.</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>
</blockquote>

<p>Get well soon, Seungmin!</p>

              <content:encoded><![CDATA[<html><head></head><body><p>After 10 years, Kwon Eunbin has parted ways with Cube Entertainment.</p>

<p>On May 22 KST, Cube Entertainment officially announced that the idol-turned-actress’s exclusive contract with the agency had come to an end.</p>

<p>After entering the spotlight as a Cube Entertainment trainee on the first season of Mnet’s “Produce 101,” Kwon Eunbin joined CLC as a new member in 2016. She later went on to make her acting debut in 2018.</p>

<p>Cube Entertainment’s full statement is as follows:</p>

<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
<p>Hello. This is Cube Entertainment.</p>

<p>First, we would like to thank all the fans who give actress Kwon Eunbin their unsparing love and support. We are making an announcement regarding Kwon Eunbin’s exclusive contract with Cube Entertainment.</p>

<p>After discussing the matter with artist Kwon Eunbin over a long period of time, it has been decided that her exclusive contract will come to an end.</p>

<p>After debuting as a member of CLC in 2016, Kwon Eunbin displayed outstanding abilities as the group’s youngest member and a multitalented all-rounder artist skilled in vocals, rap, and dance. Starting in 2018, she took on the new challenge of acting, and she has broadened her spectrum as an actor by showing heartfelt acting in every project.</p>

<p>We are deeply grateful for the hard work of Kwon Eunbin, who has been with us for 10 years as an artist representing Cube Entertainment, and we will be sincerely rooting for her in the future as she walks a new path as an actor. We ask that you continue to give Kwon Eunbin your warm interest and encouragement in the future as well.</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>

<p>On May 21, THE MUZE Entertainment released the following statement:</p>

<p>Hello. This is THE MUZE Entertainment.</p>

<p>We are making an additional announcement regarding fan support for the fans who love and cherish RESCENE.</p>

<p>Due to a recent incident in which an inappropriate gift was delivered to our artist, we have decided to completely suspend (decline delivery of) all [material] fan support, including birthday support, in the future. However, we deeply apologize and ask for fans’ understanding regarding the fact that we are urgently making this announcement so close to member Woni’s birthday.</p>

<p>Out of consideration for the sincere affection of the fans who have sent [Woni birthday support], we held another round of internal discussions to reconsider our stance, and we ultimately decided to proceed with Woni’s birthday support only up until May 31.</p>

<p>Additionally, we will be conducting rigorous internal inspection of all support items from now on, and we will make another announcement with concrete details at a later time. If any inappropriate items are discovered among fan support items in the future, please be advised that we may take measures such as strong legal action and restrictions on participation in future RESCENE activities (being placed on a blacklist).</p>

<p>We would like to thank the fans who are always cheering on RESCENE, and as these measures are being taken to protect the artist’s safety and rights, we ask for your generous understanding and cooperation.</p>

              <content:encoded><![CDATA[<html><head></head><body><p>Heo Nam Jun is launching a full-scale campaign to win Lim Ji Yeon’s heart on “My Royal Nemesis”!</p>

<p>SBS’s “My Royal Nemesis” is a new romantic comedy starring Lim Ji Yeon as Shin Seo Ri, a struggling actress who is suddenly possessed by the spirit of a notorious villainess from the Joseon era. Heo Nam Jun stars as Cha Se Gye, a ruthless chaebol heir who is known as a “monster created by capitalism.”</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Spoilers</h2>

<p>The previous episode of “My Royal Nemesis” ended with Cha Se Gye and Shin Seo Ri sharing a romantic embrace. In order to prove his feelings for her, Cha Se Gye pulled Shin Seo Ri in for a hug so that she could hear how fast his heart was beating.</p>

<p>In newly released stills from the drama’s next episode, Cha Se Gye sets out to properly woo Shin Seo Ri by making his feelings for her as clear as possible. Not only does he send a coffee truck to her filming set, but he even makes a personal visit to show his support. The gesture appears to be a success, with Shin Seo Ri happily posing for photos in front of the coffee truck with adorable, childlike glee.</p>

              <content:encoded><![CDATA[<html><head></head><body><p>tvN has released a new moving poster for its upcoming drama “See You at Work Tomorrow!”</p>

<p>Based on the hit webtoon of the same name, “See You at Work Tomorrow!” is a romance drama starring Park Ji Hyun as Cha Ji Yoon, an office worker stuck in a career rut. After becoming entangled with her prickly boss Kang Si Woo (Seo In Guk), she winds up making a fresh start both in her career and in her love life.</p>

<p>The new moving poster begins with a realistic glimpse of the dreary morning commute that is part of office workers’ daily routine. Sitting side by side on a bus, Kang Si Woo and Cha Ji Yoon stare straight ahead with expressionless faces that hint at the monotony suffered by the burned-out Cha Ji Yoon. With a mysterious switch set to “off,” the caption reads, “Repetitive daily life.”</p>

<p>However, as Cha Ji Yoon glances Kang Si Woo’s way, the switch flips from “off” to “on”—and the atmosphere undergoes an instant shift. With the caption now teasing “new excitement,” romantic tension forms as the two formerly stone-faced co-workers smile shyly at one another.</p>

              <content:encoded><![CDATA[<html><head></head><body><p>ENA has given viewers a behind-the-scenes look at the poster shoot for its upcoming drama “Doctor on the Edge”!</p>

<p>“Doctor on the Edge” will tell the love story of public health doctor Do Ji Eui (Lee Jae Wook), who is assigned to the notorious island Pyeondong, and nurse Yook Ha Ri (Shin Ye Eun), who is hiding a secret. After crossing paths on a remote island, they embark on a heartwarming journey of saving lives and learning about love as they get to know the island’s residents.</p>

<p>In the newly released making-of video, cast members Lee Jae Wook, Shin Ye Eun, Hong Min Ki, Lee Soo Kyung, and Kim Yoon Woo are seen posing in medical and military uniforms reflecting their respective roles in the drama. The shoot took place across multiple locations, including a rooftop used to give an open-air, outdoor feeling that suits the island setting of the drama, along with a studio set used for the group poster.</p>

<p>Shin Ye Eun remarked, “I think the many concepts we showed during today’s poster shoot will be able to spark curiosity among viewers about what kind of story might be behind them, which made the shoot feel even more interesting and fun.”</p>

<p>Lee Jae Wook chose the rooftop concept as his favorite, saying, “I think our drama has a refreshing vibe, and I feel that those vibes were well captured, so I was very satisfied with the shoot.”</p>

              <content:encoded><![CDATA[<html><head></head><body><p>Moon Geun Young may be making her return to the big screen through a new film by director Yeon Sang Ho!</p>

<p>On May 21, SPOTV News reported that Moon Geun Young will star in Yeon Sang Ho’s upcoming film “Yeto” (working title).</p>

<p>In response to the report, her agency Cré Company stated, “Moon Geun Young has received an offer to appear in ‘Yeto’ and is positively reviewing it.”</p>

<p>“Yeto” is the latest project from director Yeon Sang Ho, known for acclaimed works such as “Train to Busan,” “The Ugly,” and the newly released film “Colony.”</p>

<p>Moon Geun Young and Yeon Sang Ho previously worked together on Season 2 of the Netflix series “Hellbound,” where the actress made a memorable special appearance that marked the end of her long hiatus.</p>

<p>While she also briefly appeared in director Shin Su Won’s film “The Mutation,” which premiered at the Busan International Film Festival last year, “Yeto” would become her first major film role in nearly nine years since “Glass Garden” in 2017.</p>

<p>Stay tuned for more updates!</p>

              <description><![CDATA[Set against the backdrop of 1999, when widespread doomsday fears gripped the public, the story follows the unexpected rise of unlikely heroes in Haeseong City. Eun Chae Ni, a spirited and unpredictable young woman living with her grandmother Kim Jeon Bok, finds her ordinary life upended when she and her neighbors, Son Gyeong Un and Kang Ro Bin, become entangled in a mysterious incident that grants them supernatural abilities. However, their newfound powers are unstable and far from perfect. As unease spreads across the city, the trio must navigate their limitations while stepping into roles they never intended to take on. Amid a series of unexplained disappearances, they join forces with Lee Un Jeong, a principled yet socially distant civil servant from Seoul, whose involvement adds further complexity to the unfolding mystery. As they investigate the growing threat, they encounter Ha Un Do, a composed and rational figure concealing darker intentions. With Haeseong City’s safety at stake and tensions escalating, this unlikely group must confront both external dangers and their own shortcomings in a race to preserve peace in an increasingly uncertain world.

              <description><![CDATA[What lurks beneath the reservoir awaits those who dare to enter. An unidentified figure is captured in a street view image of Salmokji, a remote reservoir.

Despite the unease, Su In leads the crew in place of her senior colleague, who previously vanished after visiting the area. The shoot quickly begins to unravel as crew members experience disturbing phenomena that defy explanation. As the deep end of Salmokji reveals traces of something lurking beneath the surface, the team is forced to confront a presence that refuses to remain unseen-and a truth that should have never been surfaced.
