“Squid Game” Surpasses 111 Million Viewing Households​

It looks like the popularity of “Squid Game” isn’t going to die down anytime soon!

“Squid Game” is a Netflix original series about a mysterious survival game with a reward of 45.6 billion won (approximately $40 million) on the line. 456 money-hungry participants wind up joining the game – only to learn that there is much more at stake than just the prize money.

On October 13, Netflix revealed that 111 million Netflix subscribers around the world have watched “Squid Game.”

Since its premiere on September 17, “Squid Game” has been receiving love from all over the globe, including Brazil, France, India, and Turkey. It topped “Today’s Top 10” chart in 94 countries, and in the United States, it topped “Today’s Top 10” chart for 21 consecutive days.

Kim Min Young, Vice President, Content (APAC ex-India) at Netflix, commented, “When Netflix started investing in Korea in 2015, our goal was to present world-class Korean content for fans who love Korean shows, not only in Asia, but around the world. ‘Squid Game’ turned our dream into a reality.”

She added, “When the story that director Hwang Dong Hyuk had envisioned for a long time could not be made anywhere, Netflix believed that the charm of ‘Squid Game’ could surely shake the hearts of fans in Korea as well as around the world.”

The cast of “Squid Game,” including Lee Jung Jae, Park Hae Soo, Wi Ha Joon, and Jung Ho Yeon, recently made an appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.”

Secret Number releases a short video titled “Secret Spoiler #01”​

On October 13 KST, Secret Number released a short video titled “Secret Spoiler #01”. The video gave us a dark room with a lit table that showed two members playing Poker (one being JINNY).

It gives a clue that things aren’t what they seemed when Jinny was stopped when she thought she won. Then they showed the 10/27 date, which is their comeback day.

This video is making fans very excited. We hope to see more people enjoy this ride.

Singer/actress Hyosung, currently serving as the '2021 Hanbok Ambassador' appointed by South Korea's Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, showcased the grace and elegance of winter hanbok styles in a pictorial with 'Mag & Jina'.

Earlier this year, Hyosung was selected as the '2021 Hanbok Ambassador' for her well-known love of hanbok, promoting Korea's traditional clothing through various activities. For this 'Mag & Jina' pictorial, Hyosung donned on various styles of winter hanbok, ranging from traditional pieces to more modern designs.

During her interview, Hyosung discussed her love and appreciation toward hanbok, commenting, "Once I put on hanbok, I fix my stance and my attitude before I realize I am doing it. Hanbok allows me to carry myself in a neat manner. It is clothing that carries the weight of our ancestors' traditions and their mindsets, and the precious beauty of that is the true charm of hanbok."

Regarding tips for choosing modern hanbok styles which suit one's everyday needs, Hyosung stated, "My tips for choosing the modern hanbok that fits your lifestyle is to prioritize comfort, and seek designs that are not extravagant."

Lovelyz's Seo Ji Soo tells fans that the group has done 'all they can' to ask for a comeback + members' contracts due to expire next month​

On October 12, Lovelyz member Seo Ji Soo held a voice-only 'V Live' broadcast, where she chatted with fans casually.

However, the casual chat soon took a more sorrowful tone. First, Seo Ji Soo mentioned that she recently finished filming a personal v-log, saying, "Since it's been so long since you all have had a chance to see us, I wanted to show you something. So I filmed a v-log. But there are so few people working in the editing department, that I don't know when it will be uploaded. Probably by the time you all forget that I even mentioned this."

In response to fans' comments asking why Lovelyz have not had a comeback in such a long time, Seo Ji Soo cautiously began, "When will I be able to see you. It's disappointing." She continued, "We have tried all we can. We told them that we wanted to release an album. It's not that we did not tell them such and such things that we wanted. We did not hold back. This is our lives we are talking about, and to just waste so much of our lives like this is frustrating and we feel sorry to our fans."

Seo Ji Soo also added on, "I just want you all to know that we aren't just waiting around without taking action. I know that you are having a hard time. It must be frustrating, but right now, it's not a situation where we can speak up too frankly."

Meanwhile, earlier this month, Lovelyz member Jin also shared a cryptic message on her Instagram. She wrote, "These days, I forget my profession. If you just look at my Instagram, I'm a food vlogger." The post has since been deleted from Jin's account.

The last time Lovelyz promoted with a new album was in September of last year, with their 7th mini album 'Unforgettable'. It's also notable to note that Lovelyz, who debuted in November of 2014, will be facing contract renewals next month.

SBS curtly responds 'unconfirmed' to questions on Ahn Yu Jin's return as MC of 'Inkigayo'​

It's been approximately 4 weeks since former IZ*ONE member Ahn Yu Jin was discharged from the COVID-19 care facility, after her complete recovery from the virus last month.

However, the idol still has not returned to her position as the female MC of SBS's 'Inkigayo'. Numerous fans have been demanding an explanation from both SBS as well as from Ahn Yu Jin's agency, Starship Entertainment. In response to questions regarding when fans can expect to see Ahn Yu Jin return to 'Inkigayo', a representative of SBS gave a curt and vague answer, "It's unconfirmed."

Starship Entertainment has responded in a similar matter, stating, "We are currently moving forward with schedules with the artist's health in mind."

Since Ahn Yu Jin tested positive for COVID-19 in early September, SBS's 'Inkigayo' has invited various female idols as special MCs to fill in for her place, including STAYC's Sieun, Jeon So Mi, ITZY's Yuna, and more.

What's puzzling fans the most is that Ahn Yu Jin has been active on Instagram since her COVID-19 recovery, sharing photos with fans. Some are still putting forward opinions that the idol may be experiencing side effects even after her recovery, while others are criticizing SBS and Starship Entertainment for their poor management of the situation.
