Description
Director Lee Chang-dong stuns the Venice International Film Festival, claiming the Grand Jury Prize for 'Possible Love' — his first Venice win in 24 years since 'Oasis' — after a seven-minute standing ovation and praise for stars Jeon Do-yeon, Sul Kyung-gu, Jo In-sung, and Jo Yeo-jeong. In K-pop news, LE SSERAFIM's 'Made My Night,' a collaboration with Blizzard Entertainment's Overwatch, racks up over one million Spotify streams in a single day and lands the group as the first-ever K-pop act to perform at BlizzCon, this time in Anaheim. Monsta X isn't slowing down either, as their title track 'Magic' rockets to a KBS Music Bank #1 trophy and tops K-pop album charts in 11 countries including the US, UK, and Brazil. Elsewhere, FT Island's Lee Hong-gi sparks fan concern over his slimmer look while teasing the band's 20th anniversary comeback, OneWe unveils playful concept photos for their 'O! NEW E!volution VI' concert series, and veteran singer Jin Mi-ryung celebrates 50 years in music with a sold-out anniversary concert in Gangnam.
