Eunhyuk said, “Not only is Siwon a good looking guy, but he’s sharp, he’s a gentleman, plus he’s really athletic. He’s the whole package… However, one time one of our members wanted to compliment him on his physique, and told Siwon that he had muscles like a horse… But Siwon misunderstood, and was a somewhat upset by the comment.”
“He apparently thought about it all day and called Leeteuk in the middle of the night, asking if the fellow members didn’t like him, and if he really looked like a horse. They talked about it for hours,” he revealed, causing the whole set to explode into laughter.

Yunho exits on 4th episode of ‘Poseidon’ + possibility of return later in the series
Yunho has been the star featured guest on the new KBS 2TV drama, ‘Poseidon‘, but he will be making his exit after the 4th episode.
This was Yunho’s first time taking up a role in a drama since 2009, and fans’ expectations were high for his ‘Poseidon’ character. Although he has reached the summit as a member of Changmin set the bar high performing his role in ‘Paradise Ranch‘, Yunho needed to step up his acting game.
Thanks to his good looks and action scenes, his acting received well reviews across the board. Fans wanted to see more of him after news of him exiting the show had broken out. They demanded that Yunho’s character be given more lines, as he was one of the main leads in the first few episodes. They wanted to know more of his story and background.
The staff hinted at a possibility of Yunho rejoining the cast later in the story. PD Ki Seung Mo stated, “There is a possibility of Yunho coming back on set. The drama is left flexible enough for him to possibly join us later on in the story.” Yunho’s character is a good mix of hot and cold and he is an essential character that may need to come back to tie the drama together in the end, they explained. Yunho’s character, Kang Eun Chul plays the role of a loyal officer who is linked with another main in the story and sacrifices himself to save Sunwoo (played by Choi Siwon).
Yunho’s character Kang Eun Chul is the head of the maritime police special forces unit, and in the 4th episode he suddenly leaves the country leaving behind many questions left to be answered.

Who is the most undervalued idol actors?
It’s easy to stereotype idol actors as untalented due to the many acting controversies they’re swept in once they actually try their hand in acting. Unfortunately, this is unfair to some idol-turned-actors that actually do have the talent to make it in the industry, which is why Sports Chosun brought together 10 entertainment reporters to choose the idol actors that they think are the most undervalued.
Check out who made it below!
–
To most people, After School‘s UEE actually matches the title of ‘actress’ more than ‘member of After School.’ She was praised for her unlikely acting skills through her role in SBS‘s ‘You’re Handsome‘ and went on to take on a variety of other roles including tvN‘s ‘Birdie Buddy‘ and KBS‘s ‘Ojakgyo Brothers‘.
Such is the reason why she came out on top, earning a total of six votes. She also received seven votes for the actress with the most potential to improve, as well as five votes for most improved acting.
Following UEE is The Trax‘s Jay, who earned three votes for KBS‘s ‘Women of Our Home‘. He earned a vote for his improved acting, with his only flaw being that the dramas he has participated in have suffered from low viewer ratings.
The last vote went to Super Junior‘s Choi Siwon of KBS‘s ‘Poseidon‘. He earned two votes for his potential and a vote for his improved acting. Many also remarked that he was an actor they looked forward to seeing grow and improve in the future.
Unfortunately, it’s only natural that people will view idol-turned-actors in a negative light. Compared to actors that dedicate their entire lives to their craft, idols often land their roles based on a foundation they built from dancing and singing.
Reporters also gave six votes on idols indeed needing more training and preparation before they advanced their careers. They also gave zero votes to a ‘there needs to be more idol actors.’
There still is hope, though, as reporters gave four votes to there being no problem should an idol debut with the proper acting skills required for their roll. Considering the fact that ‘idol singers must only focus on their singing activities’ earned zero votes, it’s really up to the idols in deciding their futures.
