South Korean stars Park Bo-gum and IU will feature on the show, When Life Gives You Tangerines
As the release of Netflix's When Life Gives You Tangerines draws closer, lead stars Park Bo-gum and IU have been having fun with the promotions.
Recently, Bo-gum appeared on Yoo In-na's radio show, unaware that IU was secretly present, disguised as a staff member. Clad in a cap and mask, she went unnoticed—even when she 'checked' In-na and Bo-gum, maintaining her cover.
Before revealing her prank, IU let Bo-gum speak freely with In-na about his experience working on the show. At one point, In-na shared, 'I heard IU say that Bo-gum is 100 percent pure and good, and never does anything wrong. Your other co-stars, including Bae Suzy, have said the same.'
Bo-gum, ever humble, responded, 'I think I just have a habit of keeping the atmosphere positive.'
During their conversation, Bo-gum spoke to IU over the phone, still unaware she was in the same studio. Jokingly demanding a compliment, IU then asked if he felt nervous during the interview. After much teasing, Bo-gum laughed and playfully pretended to struggle—only for IU to finally drop her act, exclaiming, 'Who is making our darling struggle?'
Cue shock and laughter, as Bo-gum was caught completely off guard. Clips from the interview have since been circulating on Twitter, with fans expressing admiration for their friendship and chemistry—only adding to the excitement for the show's release today.

'The Day of The Jackal' author Frederick Forsyth dies aged 86
Prolific British thriller writer Frederick Forsyth, who instantly became a global bestselling author when his book "The Day of the Jackal" was published in 1971, died on Monday aged 86, his literary agents Curtis Brown said. Forsyth famously penned his most famous work about a fictional assassination attempt on French president Charles de Gaulle by right-wing extremists in just 35 days after falling on hard times. "The Jackal" went on to be made into a hit film starring Edward Fox as the assassin. A Netflix remake last year with Eddie Redmayne in the lead role was released last year. "We mourn the passing of one of the world's greatest thriller writers," his agent Jonathan Lloyd said. Forsyth died at home surrounded by his family following a brief illness, according to Curtis Brown. The former journalist and pilot wrote over 25 books including "The Odessa File" (1972) and "The Dogs of War" (1974) and sold over 75 million copies worldwide. Many of his novels were also turned into films. "Only a few weeks ago I sat with him as we watched a new and moving documentary of his life ... and was reminded of an extraordinary life, well lived," said Lloyd. "After serving as one of the youngest ever RAF pilots, he turned to journalism, using his gift for languages in German, French and Russian to become a foreign correspondent in Biafra (in Nigeria)," he said. 'Spectacular luck' "Appalled at what he saw and using his experience during a stint as a secret service agent, he wrote his first and perhaps most famous novel, 'The Day Of The Jackal'," he added. A sequel to "The Odessa File", entitled "Revenge Of Odessa", on which he worked with thriller writer Tony Kent, is due to be published in August, his publisher Bill Scott-Kerr said. "His journalistic background brought a rigour and a metronomic efficiency to his working practice and his nose for and understanding of a great story kept his novels both thrillingly contemporary and fresh," Scott-Kerr added. Forsyth attributed much of his success to "luck", recalling how a bullet narrowly missed him while he was covering the bloody Biafra civil war between 1967 and 1970. "I have had the most spectacular luck all through my life," he told The Times last November in an interview. "Right place, right time, right person, right contact, right promotion -- and even just turning my head away when that bullet went past," he said. Asked why he had decided to give up writing -- although he later went back to it -- he told AFP in 2016 he'd "run out of things to say". "I can't just sit at home and do a nice little romance from within my study, I have to go out and check out places like Modagishu, Guinea Bissau, both hellholes in different ways," he said. Forsyth had two sons by his first wife. His second wife, Sandy, died last year. Conservative MP David Davis paid tribute to his friend as a "fabulous wordsmith". He told Sky News that Forsyth "was a great believer in the old values -- he believed in honour and patriotism and courage and directness and straightforwardness, and a big defender of our armed forces".
