Episode Details

BLACKPINK's Jennie has officially rewritten K-pop history, with her Tame Impala collaboration 'Dracula' holding steady at number six on the Billboard Hot 100 for a record-breaking sixteen consecutive weeks in the top ten, surpassing BTS's 'Butter' as the longest-charting K-pop top ten run ever. Meanwhile, EXO sub-unit Chen-Baek-Xi scored a major legal victory as the Seoul Central District Court granted an injunction suspending their exclusive contracts with agency INB100, citing unpaid settlement fees and a total breakdown of trust after CEO Cha Ga-won failed to appear or file any defense. Elsewhere, FT Island's Lee Hong-ki stunned fans with a slimmed-down, blonde makeover after a fourteen-kilogram weight loss for his musical role in 'Sugar,' while Stray Kids' Felix marked his birthday by donating three hundred million won to hospitals and charities including UNICEF Korea. Fresh five-member act DREAM OF ONE is also buzzing ahead of its October pre-debut thanks to a viral animal-costume teaser campaign, and Netflix announced it will expand access to director Lee Chang-dong's acclaimed filmography following his Venice Film Festival win for 'Possible Love.'
