Previous week’s K-content world was filled with major stories, from actor Jung Woo Sung caught in a controversy over his out-of-wedlock child to NewJeans parting ways with ADOR. Here’s a look at the key happenings this week in the world of K-drama and K-pop.

Jung Woo Sung Caught in Out-of-Wedlock Child Controversy

Jung Woo Sung, a well-known actor, is making headlines after being revealed as the father of a child with model Moon Gabi. The controversy began when Moon Gabi, in November, shared that she was now a mother without specifying the father. Dispatch later confirmed that Jung Woo Sung was the father of her son. The actor’s admission to the news added fuel to the fire, especially when rumors surfaced suggesting he had been in a long-term relationship with a non-celebrity woman.

This led to speculations that Jung Woo Sung had been cheating on his girlfriend, resulting in criticism from the public. His agency, however, refused to comment on the claims of a long-term relationship, stating it was a private matter. The situation remains tense, and Jung Woo Sung has been facing backlash from fans and the public alike.

NewJeans Announces Departure from ADOR

In a shocking move, NewJeans, one of the most popular K-pop girl groups, has announced they are parting ways with ADOR. The group held an emergency press conference where they stated they were terminating their contract with the agency, citing failures in protection and lack of intention to improve. Despite this, NewJeans confirmed they would continue making music, hinting at a future reunion with Min Hee Jin, the former ADOR head.

In response, ADOR denied any breach of the agreement and confirmed that the contract remains valid. They expressed a desire for a dialogue with the group, but as of now, no agreement has been reached, leaving fans questioning what lies ahead for the future of NewJeans.

Former T-ara Member Ham Eun Jung’s Mother Passes Away

In more somber news, Ham Eun Jung of T-ara is mourning the loss of her mother, who passed away on November 27. The tragic news came while she was abroad, and she quickly returned home to be with her family. Her mother’s funeral took place on November 29, and fans have been sending their condolences to the star during this difficult time.

SUGA Edited Out from 2024 MMA Awards VCR

Controversy stirred at the 2024 Melon Music Awards (MMA) when SUGA of BTS was noticeably edited out of a VCR meant to honor the group’s legacy. The omission sparked outrage among BTS fans (ARMYs), who demanded an explanation for this treatment. The MMA organizers are believed to have made this decision due to SUGA’s DUI controversy earlier in the year, despite the case being resolved months ago. Fans expressed their fury over the lack of respect shown to the rapper, fueling further debate over the situation.

These stories from the world of K-content have captivated audiences, showing the highs and lows of the industry. Stay tuned for more updates on these developing stories.
