Korean Star Cha Eun-woo's Final Fan Meeting Before Military Service - Viral 'Soda Pop' Challenge Breaks Internet
Just days before his military enlistment on July 28th, Korean heartthrob Cha Eun-woo delivered what might be the most memorable farewell performance in K-pop history. At his solo fan meeting 'THE ROYAL' held at Kyung Hee University's Peace Hall in Seoul on July 12th, the ASTRO member surprised fans by performing the viral 'Soda Pop' dance from the animated film 'K-pop Demon Hunters'. The timing couldn't have been more perfect - or more emotional. This wasn't just any regular performance; it was Cha Eun-woo's final official domestic schedule before starting his military service with the Army's military band. The 20-second performance video has already surpassed 1.5 million views on YouTube, with fans from around the world showering it with comments like "This is the real-life version of the animation" and "Cha Eun-woo is different". What made this moment even more special was Cha Eun-woo's outfit - a regal, prince-like uniform that perfectly complemented his ethereal visuals. After performing the choreography with precision, his shy gesture of turning away bashfully sent the entire venue into a frenzy. For Indian fans who understand the emotional weight of a favorite star's farewell, this performance hit differently - it was like watching Shah Rukh Khan bid goodbye before a long hiatus, knowing you won't see him for years. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas For Sale in Dubai Might Surprise You Dubai villas | search ads Get Deals Undo The Animation Comes to Life The significance of this performance goes beyond just entertainment. Director Maggie Kang had previously revealed that Cha Eun-woo was the actual model for Jin-woo, the main vocalist of the fictional boy group 'Lion Boys' in the animated film. Seeing him perform the character's signature dance was like watching fiction merge with reality - a moment that felt almost surreal for fans who had been waiting for this crossover. The animated film, which topped the streaming charts globally since its June 20th release, tells the story of K-pop superstars who secretly use their supernatural abilities to protect fans from otherworldly threats when they're not performing. The OST has been phenomenally successful, with seven songs simultaneously entering the Billboard Hot 100 chart - a historic achievement that mirrors how Bollywood soundtracks can dominate multiple chart positions. The Challenge That United the Industry The 'Soda Pop' challenge has become a cultural phenomenon that transcends individual fandoms. Major K-pop acts like BTS member RM, who hummed along to the song during a live broadcast, alongside groups like BOYNEXTDOOR, RIIZE, and ZEROBASEONE have all participated in the challenge. Even MONSTA X members Hyungwon, Kihyun, and Jooheon created a version of 'Your Idol' that garnered 9.6 million views on TikTok. The challenge's appeal lies in its accessibility - the choreography is catchy yet simple enough for anyone to attempt, similar to how viral Bollywood dance steps spread across social media. Female groups like NMIXX's Lily and TWICE members Jeongyeon, Jihyo, and Chaeyoung have also joined in, with their performances reaching tens of millions of views. What's particularly touching is how this challenge has become a way for the industry to celebrate not just the animated film's success, but also to honor Cha Eun-woo's contribution to K-pop before his military service. It's a collective farewell that shows the supportive nature of the Korean entertainment industry.

THIS Bollywood Actress Worked With Shah Rukh Khan Before Becoming Salman Khan's 'Bhabhi'
Last Updated: This Bollywood actress worked with Shah Rukh Khan in the 1989 popular TV show Circus. Any guesses? Actress Renuka Shahane gained widespread recognition after starring in the 1994 film Hum Aapke Hain Koun. While many know Shahane as Salman Khan's beloved bhabhi in the movie, few remember that she also shared screen space with Shah Rukh Khan in his early television days. SRK and Renuka co-starred in the 1989 popular TV show Circus. Recently, Renuka appeared on the podcast 'InControversial with Pooja Chaudhri', when she recalled working with SRK and said, 'His attitude towards work is absolutely fabulous. Actually, Shah Rukh is the kind of professional that everybody should dream to be…And second is his treatment of everybody on the set. He's such a gracious person. He makes no distinction between a spot person and a producer or a director, actor – nothing. His relationships on the set are on that equal level, when the star does that, the entire set feels invigorated." When Shah Rukh Khan Called Renuka His 'Pehli Heroine' Interestingly, Shah Rukh Khan also teased Renuka as his 'pehli (first) heroine" in 2023 when the actress went to watch the movie Pathaan with her husband, Ashutosh Rana. Back then, Renuka took to his X handle to share pictures with Rana from the screening of the movie and wrote, 'Finally going to watch #Pathaan. Mausam bilkul sahi hai, kursi ki peti baandh li hai (The weather is good, have fastened the seat bealts). With Col Luthra ji." Reacting to it, Shah Rukh Khan said, 'Col Luthraji ko bataya aapne ki aap meri pehli heroine hain (Did you tell Col Luthra that you are my first heroine)!! Or should we keep it a Top Secret otherwise he may fire me from the agency!!!" Finally going to watch #Pathaan ❤ Mausam bilkul sahi hai 😁 kursi ki peti baandh li hai 💃💃😁 with Col Luthra ji 😊😊🙏🏾 — Renuka Shahane (@renukash) February 5, 2023 Renuka also responds to SRK, saying, 'Hahaha unsey koi baat chhupti kahaan hai? Aaphi ne unhe antaryaami kaha hai. Aur chaahey jo ho jaaye, woh aapko fire nahi kar saktey kyunki jo kaam aap kartey hain woah koi aur nahi kar saktaa (Can anything be hidden from him? You only have called him all-knowing. And whatever might happen, he can't fire you because nobody can do the work you do)."
