On the 15th of June, fifteen years ago, 4Minute released their debut digital single, "Hot Issue".
"Hot Issue" is a song known for its energetic beat and catchy hooks, establishing the group's signature style characterized by confident and bold performances. "Hot Issue" quickly garnered attention and helped 4Minute gain significant popularity in the K-pop industry. The track discusses themes of self-assurance and standing out, which resonated with many fans.
SUMMARY: A Prince with an unfortunate reputation and a noble lady moonlighting as a matchmaker find love for the entire village--and themselves.
THIS SHOW HAS EVERYTHING: Quick costume changes, wedding-night poison, secret attic erotica, sass-mouths, old bachelors, heart palpitations, minister scheming, temples, donkeys, god-tier matchmaking, and learning to love your fate.
HOT TAKE: Dammit, Rowoon has done it again. Despite the fact that the only kiss the main leads had was top-tier terrible, this show was clever, adorable, refreshing, and just overall an excellent watch. Everyone's chemistry was great and the plot fake-outs were funny. Would totally recommend for someone looking for a lighthearted drama that will make you smile.
I'm gonna be very honest: I hate football/soccer and, initially, I only wanted to watch this because I adore IU. So, color me surprised, cause I enjoyed it a lot. I should have seen it coming tbh, cause I've always liked this type of inspirational-underdog storylines. Anyway, the characters were engaging, the script was really funny and witty, and the whole cast was great. IU does steal the show, proving that she has a natural knack for fast-paced comedy and one-liners (I swear I'm not being biased here). But all the other actors do an amazing job too! My only real complain is that the movie felt a tad too long, and the final act dragged a bit. But, besides that, I had a lot of fun watching it and I would definitely recommend it!
In this film about broken dreams and second chances, a professional football player finds himself in a difficult position due to a mix of bad decisions and bad luck. He also has no real support system in his mother (who is on the run for scamming people) and his agency wants him to quit the sport to become a celebrity.
Is in this moment of his life that to rehabilitate his image he is forced to become the coach of a football team conformed by homeless men that will compete on a charity tournament.
Reluctantly, he learns the reasons why these men found themselves living in the streets. Addiction, bad decisions, abandonment, grief, among other motives. What they all have in common is that through this tournament they are looking to become a better version of themselves.
To record every moment of their journey, a documentary director (deep in student debt and stress) needs to find the right angle to have this film be a success for her and them.
It’s through teamwork and sharing their problems, that this team of odd men out find -perhaps for the first time in their lives- a real support system and even a family.
Dream is a solid comedy with really touching moments that brought some tears to my eyes. The film tries to shed some light on current social issues in South Korea through the housing problem these men are going through.
Park Seo Joon gives a good performance going from disheartened to finding a new dream and people to fight for. His chemistry with IU is hilarious to watch as they play entirely platonic teammates throwing jabs at each other, even long after they start to get along.
IU’s character as the documentary director who is forced to believe in herself into success is both fun and oh, so real.
The heart of the film, however, is Heo Joon Seok, whose character never lost hope and fought from beginning to end so the team could achieve their dream. The rest of the actors bring some emotions though the respective stories that makes the comedy more grounded.
On the 18th of June, fifteen years ago, HyunA, Sohyun, Jihyun, Gayoon and Jiyoon, stepped foot on stage for the first time ever as 4Minute, to perform their smash debut hit, "Hot Issue".
4Minute are known for their energetic performances and strong stage presence, gaining popularity with hits like "Hot Issue," "Muzik," and "Crazy." They are known for their distinct musical style that incorporated elements of pop, hip-hop, and dance.
This is a crime story that has a balance of suspense, action, comedy and romance. I loved the series. A team of an ex-profiler, ex-police and ex-NIS staff and a young inventor work in their café / Shaman house to hide their investigation operation where they want to find out who killed Prosecutor Han Jae Jeong. Things get complicated when Han Jae Hui and get team in the police start working on cases connected to Nam Han Joon's clients.
If you like crime stories with a good balance, you will like this one. It was series in the moments it needed to be and the situations and the way Nam Han Joon hides his talents under role of Shaman, makes you laugh, lighting the series.
