Stray Kids’ Bang Chan Makes 3 Separate Donations For His Birthday

Stray Kids’ Bang Chan celebrated his birthday by making generous donations to three different causes.

On October 3, JYP Entertainment revealed that Bang Chan had donated a total of 300 million won (approximately $223,218) for his 29th birthday. The Stray Kids leader donated 100 million won (approximately $74,406) each to the organizations HearCycle, World Vision, and OSEAN.

Finally, his donation to OSEAN will be used for coastal cleanup, marine debris removal, and river purification.

“It means a lot to me to be able to make even a small gesture of support across multiple areas in need of a helping hand, from children’s dreams to our own backyard,” said Bang Chan. “I hope that my [donations] reach those in need and help us dream together of a better tomorrow.”

Before making these three donations for his birthday, Bang Chan also donated a total of 200 million won to Seoul Rehabilitation Hospital and the Korean Committee for UNICEF just this past September.

Happy Birthday, Bang Chan!

Ji Sung Is Touched When His Fake Family Throws Him A Surprise Birthday Party In “The Apartment Job”

Ji Sung’s family on “The Apartment Job” may be fake, but their bond is all too real!

JTBC’s “The Apartment Job” tells the story of former Oasis Gang boss Park Hae Kang (Ji Sung), who runs for president of an apartment complex’s resident council in order to get his hands on the complex’s hidden reserve fund. In the process, he winds up joining forces with the other residents in order to expose deep-rooted corruption.

Spoilers

In newly released stills from the drama’s upcoming episode, Kang Ha Ri (Ha Yun Kyung) and the rest of the “intermittent family” prepare a surprise birthday party for Park Hae Kang. The family goes all out for his special day, adorning the house with colorful decorations and setting off party poppers.

Wearing a festive “Happy Birthday” headband, Kang Ha Ri brings out a cake with candles, while the Lizard (Kim Won Hae), Kim Gyeong Nam (Jung Soon Won), Jang Je Gil (Hwang Hee), Big Guy (Kim Kyu Won), and Kim Gyeong Buk (Kim Han Gyeol) happily look on.

As this “intermittent family” is now as tight-knit as a real family, it remains to be seen where their journey will take them next—and how Park Hae Kang’s decision to work for Lee Choong Won (Park Byung Eun) in pursuit of the missing 17.8 billion won (approximately $12.3 million) will impact their family dynamics.

IU And Byeon Woo Seok Become Intensely Aware Of Each Other’s Presence At The King’s Birthday Banquet In “Perfect Crown”

MBC’s upcoming drama “Perfect Crown” has shared a glimpse of its first episode!

Set in an alternate universe where modern-day Korea is a constitutional monarchy, “Perfect Crown” tells the love story of Seong Hui Ju (IU), a chaebol heiress who has everything but is only a commoner in status, and Grand Prince Ian (Byeon Woo Seok), a prince who has nothing despite being the son of the king.

In Episode 1, as the nation’s prominent figures all gather to celebrate the king’s birthday, a face-to-face meeting takes place between chaebol heiress Seong Hui Ju and royal family member Grand Prince Ian.

Seong Hui Ju, the CEO of Castle Beauty, gets to set foot in the king’s birthday banquet for the first time despite the social limitations of being a commoner and of illegitimate birth. Determined to make her presence known through the major event that is the banquet, Seong Hui Ju breaks a royal taboo—that red is not worn in the palace—and chooses a bold red suit, drawing the attention of everyone there, including Grand Prince Ian.
