'One: High School Heroes' brings to life smash-hit webtoon
Star-studded ensemble joins the show, with Disney+ 'Moving' star Lee Jung-ha and 'Single's Inferno' star Yuk Jun-seo A smash-hit webtoon driven by a mission to eradicate school violence is getting the live-action treatment. "One: High School Heroes," Wavve's latest original series, is set to premiere this Friday with a star-studded ensemble, including Lee Jung-ha, best known as the superpowered lead of the Disney+ series "Moving," and Yuk Jun-seo, the breakout heartthrob from Netflix's "Single's Inferno." The coming-of-age action drama centers on Eui-gyum (played by Lee), a top student burdened by his domineering father. He teams up with Yoon-gi (Kim Do-wan) to form a covert masked vigilante group determined to confront school violence head-on. Based on the popular webtoon of the same name, which has amassed over 65 million views, the series promises a faithful adaptation of the original narrative. 'The series will have a storyline that's almost identical to the original work,' director Lee Sung-tae said during a press conference held Wednesday in Seoul's Gwangjin-gu. He added, 'Some parts were slightly adapted for the drama, such as adding elements to strengthen the oppressive atmosphere of Eui-gyum's father's household and making the character Yoon-gi more flexible than in the original. We added narrative depth to Yoon-gi's character to make him more relatable." Marking Lee Jung-ha's return to the small screen following his star-making role in "Moving," the actor once again steps into the shoes of a hero -- though this time, grounded in the real world. Known for portraying a superhuman with dynamic combat skills in "Moving," Lee said he immersed himself in extensive martial arts training to prepare for the wide range of action sequences required in the new series. Joining him is Yuk, who has been steadily rising through the entertainment ranks following his appearances on "The Iron Squad," Netflix's "Sweet Home," and the dating reality show "Single's Inferno" season four. In "One: High School Heroes," he plays enigmatic transfer student Lee Gul-jae, a fan-favorite character from the webtoon. 'It's a uniquely charming character with an already established fanbase. I focused on preserving that without damaging it,' said Yuk. 'Honestly, it feels almost embarrassing for me to be here as an actor. I auditioned and got the role before my identity as an actor was even fully formed. I'm sure the director had a lot of concerns. I spent a lot of time trying to make the role feel more like 'me.'" Yuk also spoke about the physically demanding nature of the role, which required him to lean into his real-life background serving in the South Korean military's Underwater Demolition Team. 'For this project, I focused on delivering intense action that could amplify my UDT background. There were more physical scenes than dialogue. ... The character needed to use his body actively and perform some unusual action scenes. It's the kind of action I'll never forget for the rest of my life,' he said.

(Photos) Newlyweds Ailee & Choi Sihun Share Honeymoon Adventure In Dubai
Last week, K-pop singer Ailee (에일리) and former 'Single's Inferno' contestant Choi Sihun (최시훈) finally tied the knot. The couple held a lavish wedding ceremony attended by close friends and family, where the singer went viral for her three outfit changes and a rendition of Beyoncé's 'Love On Top', dedicated to her new husband. According to Korean media reports, the newlyweds are embarking on a ten-day honeymoon, with stops in Dubai and the Maldives. It appears the reports were accurate, as the couple have recently shared glimpses of their travels abroad. Here are the photos: Over the weekend, Ailee shared two carousel posts on Instagram featuring photos from the first day of their ten-day honeymoon, with Dubai as their first stop. 'Day 1 💜 🍯🌙 w. @choi_hun2. Honeymooning in the desert,' she captioned the first post. In one candid moment, the vocalist appeared surprised, perhaps caught off guard as her husband snapped photos while they walked back to their room at the Terra Solis Dubai hotel. The first carousel also featured a selfie of the newlyweds and a glimpse inside their room at the ultra-luxurious resort in the desert. In a follow-up carousel post, Ailee shared photos of the couple relaxing by the pool, sunbathing, sipping on fresh coconut drinks and indulging in mouth-watering meals. In Choi Sihun's posts, he shared more intimate and candid moments from their honeymoon, accompanied by a heartfelt caption describing how the experience felt like a dream.

From Wedding Dresses To Beyonce's 'Love On Top' Cover: What Went Down At Ailee & Choi Sihun's Wedding
After announcing their engagement last year, K-pop singer Ailee (에일리) and former 'Single's Inferno' contestant Choi Sihun (최시훈) have revealed that they will be tying the knot in 2025. Earlier this year, Ailee shared photos from their pre-wedding shoot, capturing the couple's love in both elegant wedding attire and relaxed, casual outfits. The big day has finally arrived, as the couple held their wedding ceremony over the weekend, surrounded by close friends and family. The event has since gone viral, so let's take a closer look at what unfolded during the two stars' beautiful celebration. On 20th April (Sunday), Ailee and Choi Sihun officially became husband and wife. The couple tied the knot in a grand ceremony held at a wedding hall in Gangnam, Seoul. The newlyweds and guests were treated to a special performance by singer Baek Ji-young, who sang 'Candy in My Ear' on stage, adding a lively and memorable touch to the celebration. Throughout the day, the couple were seen in three different outfits, with Ailee naturally drawing the most attention. She first appeared in a white, floral-themed wedding gown during a photoshoot ahead of the ceremony, then changed into a more delicate lace-style dress for the exchange of vows. Later in the evening, during the reception, the singer captivated guests once again in a striking black dress, marking her third outfit change of the day. Her husband, of course, wore suits that complemented her 3 dresses. During the reception, the couple were seen joyfully celebrating on stage with their wedding cake, dancing to Beyoncé's 'Love On Top'. Ailee then took the mic and began singing along to the track, playfully dedicating the lyrics to her visibly flustered husband. Fans were left in awe of her vocal prowess, even on her special day, she effortlessly reminded everyone why she's one of K-pop's most powerful voices. According to Korean media reports, Ailee and Choi Sihun will be embarking on a 10-day honeymoon, with stops in Dubai followed by the Maldives. We at Hype Malaysia would like to extend our heartfelt congratulations to the happy couple on their marriage and wish them a safe and joyful honeymoon! Here are the viral clips from their wedding: Sources: Koreaboo, Instagram, TikTok (1)(2)(3), Pinkvilla

The right impression
Exhibition of impressionists, cafe with view and hot dating spot Lasting impression 'Frontiers of Impressionism: Paintings from the Worcester Art Museum' is running at The Hyundai Seoul in Yeouido through May 26. The exhibition features 53 paintings from 39 impressionists, who favored sketching the fleeting over the eternal, everyday life over the grand and indoors over outdoors when recording their view of the 19th century world. Starting with 'Water Lilies' by French impressionism pioneer Claude Monet, the exhibition looks at how the movement that valued lighter palettes and loose brushwork spread from France to the US. The paintings also demonstrate how the initial focus on depicting French landscapes expanded to embrace different subjects. Also on display are works embracing tonalism, an American art movement that focused on portraying the overall mood of landscapes rather than their details. A brief explanation of each work next to the paintings are helpful for visitors unfamiliar with art. Admission is 20,000 won for adults. The gallery is open 10:30 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday-Thursday, closing 30 minutes later Friday-Sunday. Stunning view at heart of Myeongdong Amid the bustling streets of Myeongdong, central Seoul, filled with countless restaurants, shops and department stores, there is a tranquil escape — cafe Pines. Though the indoor seating area is limited to just seven tables, the true highlight of the cafe is its outdoor terrace. From this spot, visitors can enjoy an unobstructed view of Myeongdong Cathedral, one of Seoul's most iconic landmarks. Myeongdong Cathedral, one of Korea's most iconic Gothic-style churches, took six years to build, from 1892 to 1898. The cathedral sits atop Myeongdong Hill, a historically significant site that was once home to Kim Beom-woo Thomas, Korea's first Catholic martyr. This site holds deep meaning in the history of Korean Catholicism. Built with antique red bricks, the cathedral stands out amidst the surrounding modern buildings, making it a visually captivating landmark in the heart of Seoul. Cafe Pines offers an extensive coffee menu featuring espresso con panna and espresso Sale, as well as a selection of teas, ades, and desserts. The cafe is open 11 a.m. - 8 p.m., year-round. Spend a stylish night at 'Single's Inferno' dating spot For a special evening in Seoul, make your way to Arch Seoul, a dining destination nestled in the trendy streets of Samgakji. This restaurant, the date spot for Yuk Jun-seo and Lee Si-an from Netflix's hit dating show "Single's Inferno" Season 4, boasts an expansive 400 square meters framed by towering arches and luxurious terraces. The menu presents a delightful fusion of European and Korean flavors. A diverse European selection including gambas, pastas and risottos is available along with comforting Korean staples such as kimchi fried rice and tteokbokki. A standout dish is the octopus set, featuring grilled octopus with romesco sauce. The wine list is extensive and the staff are eager to assist with pairing recommendations. Arch Seoul is also a pet-friendly haven, but note that only medium-sized and smaller dogs are permitted indoors, and carriers or strollers are required. For those with larger dogs, a spacious terrace is available. Arch Seoul is open daily from 9 a.m. to 11 p.m. The restaurant offers food service until 10 p.m. and reservations can be made via Naver or Catchtable. siyoungchoi@ jy@

27 Affordable Sephora Beauty Products That'll Keep Your Skin Fresh And Your Wallet Padded
We hope you love our recommendations! Some may have been sent as samples, but all were independently selected by our editors. Just FYI, BuzzFeed and its publishing partners may collect a share of sales and/or other compensation from the links on this page. Now you can be unbothered and moisturized all year long. 1. A pH-balancing toner that'll soothe redness and hydrate your skin. It's made with hypochlorous acid (which is naturally produced in the body) to help heal your skin. Sephora Promising review:"I really love this product! I originally purchased the mini for a trip to a super hot and humid climate, and it was a lifesaver for keeping my breakouts at bay. Normally, with the amount of sweating I did, I would have broken out much worse, but with this product, I was able to spray it throughout the day when I was feeling too oily. As a bonus, when I sprayed it, and there was a slight breeze, it cooled me down!" — Madeline2021 2. An under-eye cream to trick people into thinking you slept all night long when you were actually up all night watching Single's Inferno. This formula utilizes caffeine to de-puff your eyes and peptides to help keep you looking refreshed. Sephora Promising review: "I've been using this product for about eight weeks now, and I am really starting to see a difference. When I first bought it, I was skeptical because I didn't see any changes the first few nights; now, there is a big difference. So happy with how this turned out!" — Juliaagudelo 3. Or a cooling and brightening eye balm stick that'll have you looking bright-eyed and bushy-tailed for your next Zoom meeting. You'll love swiping this hyaluronic acid and aloe juice-infused product across your under-eye because it just feels ~soo~ nice and cooling to apply. Sephora Promising review: "Love this! it was exactly what I've been looking for. Brightens and highlights but in a subtle/natural way. I very rarely wear makeup and like to have a glow and fresh look — this stuff is perfect. It also feels really lovely when you apply it under your eyes." — wasabiwest 4. An exfoliating toner gentle enough to be used daily (yes, it does exist). The ingredients can help soothe and exfoliate your skin, which will leave your skin thanking you. Sephora Promising review:"I love using The Ordinary Glycolic Acid Toner! It's been a game changer for my skincare routine, especially with helping to fade my post-acne marks. After consistent use, my skin feels smoother and more even, and the dark spots have noticeably lightened. It's gentle enough for regular use, yet effective enough to make a visible difference. Highly recommend it if you're dealing with post-acne pigmentation or just want brighter, clearer skin!" — alimka14 5. A peeling gel that'll help remove dead skin cells and other impurities. This is so easy to use: you just apply it, massage it in, and rinse. Sephora Promising review:"Results seen after first use, and they keep getting better! The best exfoliating product I've ever used. The amount of dead skin cells that sloughed off during the first treatment was ridiculous. No irritation or redness afterward. Left my skin feeling super soft and smooth. A fantastic buy!" — MagsOG 6. A viral lip butter balm because your chapped lips need it with how cold this winter has been. You'll love that this uses shea and murumuru butter, which will help moisturize, soothe, and condition your lips, making them perfectly kissable. Sephora I actually have many flavors of this because I love it. Each of these smells and tastes so good and gives my lips a glossy look while also making them feel nourished. Promising review:"I have very dry, chapped lips in the winter. I've tried different products that haven't worked and end up leaving my lips more chapped and dry. It works; it's expensive, but I think it's worth it if I use it up. The packaging is so cool." — mattysgirlxo 7. Or a peptide lip treatment if the frigid air and dryness has been rough on your lips and they need some TLC. Plumping, hydrating, soothing, *and* softening, you might want to pick this up before your next date night! Sephora Promising review:"I have bought ALL OF THEM. Not because of overconsumption but because of how much I use it and how much I love this product! It does smooth out my lips, AND I've noticed it does make my lips look fuller. If you want a thick lip treatment for your lips that won't dry you out and constantly has to be reapplied, this is for you. I recommended this to my mom, my lab supervisor — literally everyone. It's the best, and I love it. The smell/scent that everyone talks about and says it's bad and blah blah blah — it's not even a strong scent." — 80sbrunnette 8. A bottle of Glow Recipe's Watermelon Glow Niacinamide Dew Drops Serum to make your skin glow a little brighter. It can also hydrate your skin too! Sephora Promising review:"The watermelon Niacinamide drops paired with the watermelon toner have literally cleared up 95% of my face in the past year. After I wash my face, I apply these on my face, and I am done. It's gentle and did not cause any breakouts. The blemishes and rashes from my previous acne breakouts have cleared. Keeping it simple with these two and recommend everyone to at least try this, but don't overdo it with more products." — SK1357 9. A bottle of the viral The Ordinary exfoliating peeling solution that looks blood red. This can help you with blemishes, improve your skin texture, and keep your skin glowy — and it's under $10! Sephora Promising review:"Absolutely love this product! I have been using it for the past two years, and it helped my acne-prone skin significantly. After first use it makes my skin very soft and smooth, also helped with discoloration caused by acne. I have sensitive skin, so I only use it for eight minutes and immediately apply a very good moisturizer that helps soothing/replenish moisture." — NikoDCLXVI 10. A glowy serum with niacinamide and hyaluronic acid to hydrate and nourish your face. This can plump, calm, and brighten your skin. Sephora Promising review: "I decided to try this based on the reviews, and I am so impressed. What a great find! I am so pleased with the results and the difference in the way my skin looks. This serum leaves skin soft, smooth, and supple. It goes on easily and has no scent. I can use this with other products or alone. It truly does what it says. Love it!" — frangerine 11. A lightweight cleansing oil that'll clean away makeup and sunscreen, leaving your skin feeling fresh and residue-free. Plus, it'll hydrate your skin the process. What more could you want? Sephora Promising review: "I have not found an oil cleanser anywhere near as good as this. Gets all my makeup off, rinses off my skin easily, and my dry skin feels less dry after. It's worth the money. I usually jump around trying cleansers, but I'm loyal since using this one. I love it." — vtoll 12. Or a heavier cleansing balm if you prefer a solid texture instead of an oil. This melts into your skin for seamless removal of makeup, dirt, and oil. This sensitive skin-friendly, gentle, and restoring product will be your best friend after a long night. Sephora 13. A pack of pimple patches because it's always good to have them just in case. What makes these cool is that they use a combo of salicylic acid, aloe vera extract, and retinol to help suck up gunk from popped whiteheads. Place it over your zit, let it sit for a few hours, pull it off, and see the magic work in real time. Sephora BTW, these work *best* on open, draining pustules (rather than blackheads or pimples that haven't come to a head yet). You can read more at Cleveland Clinic! Promising review: "Absolutely incredible. I have used so many pimple patches, and these are incredible. These are my new go-to pimple patches. If you have acne, YOU NEED THESE! Literally, my skin was so bad, and after these, my skin is absolutely beautiful, just after one night of using these bad boys. Must have!!" — Starrcorbettt 14. A tube of Supergoop's Glow Screen that will have you looking lit from within. Not only will it leave your skin glowy, it also will keep your skin feeling moisturized, and it makes for a great base for your makeup. I love a triple threat! Sephora I've talked about this product before because it's one of my favorite sunscreens of all time. I always have a tube in my collection. Whenever I'm wearing this, I always get a million compliments on how great my skin looks! Promising review: "This sunscreen works as a beautiful skin primer. When I apply my powder or liquid foundation, it glides on and leaves me with an all-day glow. I can also just apply this with a little clear SPF gloss on my lips and head out the door." — beastie 15. A set of reusable undereye patches so you don't have to toss them after every use. To use, all you need to do is put on an eye cream or serum, apply the eye masks over it, and let it sit for 20 minutes. Price: $25 16. And a range of sheet masks because they're affordable and can do so much for your skin. All of these are compostable, so you don't need to feel bad about tossing them. Each variation can impact your skin differently, so check them all out to see the best fit for your skin concerns; from hydrating, to clarifying, and more — you can easily find something that caters to your needs. Sephora Promising reviews:"These work really well. They help bring moisture back, and they surprisingly didn't break me out." — livingharley "I like it a lot and my skin felt good after using: TIP put in fridge or freezer for an added boost ! Also, a great mask for sleepovers and movie nights!" — ashdhcbfhxbehxf 17. A face mask that doubles as a moisturizer because we love a double-duty product. This uses a combo of Niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, and glycerin that can brighten, hydrate, soften, and plump your skin. Sephora Promising review:"I started using this as a mask two to three times a week but eventually started using it once a day as a nighttime moisturizer, and my skin looks the best it has in years!! Great product! At first, I thought it was a bit expensive, but it is SO worth it, and even though I use it every day, it lasts a long time because a little truly goes a long way!" — Stevie1990 18. A Greek Yoghurt moisturizer to hydrate and nourish your skin. Yogurt is a delish snack, so it should come as no surprise that skin yogurt, with its prebiotic and probiotic ingredients, makes for a yummy skin combo. Sephora Promising review:"This moisturizer is so creamy and hydrating, but somehow still doesn't feel heavy. My skin is dry in the winter, and this is the best!" — Mariss234 19. A face oil-serum hybrid so you get the best of both worlds. It uses a combo of grapeseed, jojoba, evening primrose, and rosehip oils to keep your skin looking and feeling super dewy. Sephora 20. A facial spray that'll hydrate your skin after a long morning. Sometimes you need a refresh, and this is a great way to cool down your skin, making you feel ready to take on the rest of the day. Sephora 21. A hydrating essence with calming chamomile, healing honey, and smoothing ceramides for your skincare routine. After cleansing and toning, this step helps prep your skin for what comes next, making it a great addition to mastering the art of dewy skin. Sephora 22. A liquid exfoliant that is well-loved by many with over 2,000 5-star reviews. You're gonna love how it can help with reducing the appearance of blemishes, pores, and uneven texture. Sephora Promising review: "The formulation of this product is amazing and does not cause me irritation. I also love that it's fragrance-free. I noticed a difference in just one week and have been using the product every other day for about two weeks. In that time, I have not experienced any adverse effects. This OG exfoliant is worth the hype, for sure!" — sarahbae 23. A vitamin C serum to help with dark spots and hyperpigmentation. This is basically a facial in a bottle because it can brighten, tighten, and firm your skin. sephora Promising review:"I bought this just to try out a new vitamin C serum and was not disappointed. The price is fair, and the bottle is a good size. I used this every day and it lasted about three months before running out and I repurchased. I have also noticed my skin has really improved over time" — savmace Price $38 24. A makeup remover that'll do a great job at cleaning away your makeup, INCLUDING waterproof mascara. When it comes to the long list of things I love about this, the list includes it being tug-free and non-irritating. Sephora Promising review: "I have been using this for years and will always repurchase. Great at getting off eye makeup and very gentle on the eyes and skin."— rachelgoldgirl Price: $15+ (available in three sizes) 25. A bottle of the viral Drunk Elephant bronzing drops since it's actually a serum with a wash of color. Not only does this give you a brilliant glow, but it's also chock full of antioxidants and soothing ingredients. Sephora Promising review:"This gives the perfect 'I got some sun today' look. I mix it with my moisturizer and blend it over all the areas of the face the sun hits. Love it. I also mix it in with foundation when I have a tan." — nikkidip91 Price: $39 26. And a blush-like serum to pair with the bronzer. Buildable with a wash of pink — this plumps, hydrates, and helps brighten your skin. Sephora Promising review: "LOVE LOVE LOVEEE!! I was literally STALKING this product and got it as soon as it was early access. If you're a natural/ light makeup girlie this is definitely worth it for you. I want the other color, too, lol!!! It's so glowy and gorgeous, it's definitely worth it. I have never been a Glow Recipe girl, but this is def a worth-it product." — skitty21 Price: $25 (available in two shades) 27. A hydrating serum that'll give your skin the winter refresh you 100% need. The hydration comes from provitamin B5, which attracts moisture and keeps it there (which can help your skin barrier), and sodium hyaluronate, a molecule that can also help reduce the appearance of fine lines. Sephora Promising review:"This is usually a little pricier than I go for serums, but after using it for a few weeks, I can definitely say it has been worth it. There is a noticeable difference in how soft and moisturized my skin feels when I use this versus if I forget. A new staple for me for sure." — nikkimarie86 Price: $50 Reviews have been edited for length and/or clarity.
