The 'Squid Game' fans and the fans who know him from earlier times loved his performance in the show and were genuinely impressed by his skills.
Confirms music comeback
During a promotional interview with 'Award Buzz,' which was posted to YouTube, T.O.P. opened up about his new album.
This was before the release of 'Squid Game Season 3,' when he appeared at the global fan event 'TUDUM 2025' held at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, actively participating in promotional activities. He said, "My solo album is dropping soon!" This was when he was asked, "If Thanos were to actually conquer the world, how do you think he would treat people?" He imagined it and then said, "First, I would take the piggy bank.
And as Thanos initially said, 'I would kill half of humanity with my rap.'

Peacemaker season 2: Which DC villains are hunting John Cena's antihero?
John Cena's Christopher Smith is gearing up for a brutal fight in Peacemaker season 2. The HBO Max series, directed by James Gunn, returns August 21 after more than three years, bringing with it a mix of new heroes and a roster of villains drawn straight from DC's archives. Gunn has confirmed that six heavy-hitting antagonists will appear this season, setting the stage for chaos, reports The Direct. Peacemaker Season 2: John Cena's Christopher Smith is set to face new and old villains this time.(Screengrab/YouTube) This second outing is not just about action. Cena's antihero is still dealing with the fallout of The Suicide Squad and his messy past, even as he is being hunted from all directions.

In season 1, Robert Patrick's Auggie Smith - Peacemaker's abusive father - met his end. But footage from season 2 shows a new White Dragon costume, this time with a blue color scheme. The video hints it could be Auggie reappearing in visions, as he did during the season 1 finale, or someone entirely new carrying the mantle. Frank Grillo's Rick Flag Sr. also joins the season, gunning for revenge after Peacemaker killed his son, Rick Flag Jr., in The Suicide Squad. That showdown promises some of the most emotionally charged moments this season, according to The Direct.

Gunn called him 'the world's foremost eagle hunter,' which instantly makes Eagly, Peacemaker's loyal sidekick, a target. Nhut Le's Judomaster is back as well, though his allegiance is unclear. He spent most of season 1 fighting Peacemaker, but this time his role could swing either way. Sean Gunn steps in as Maxwell Lord, a character with a shady reputation in DC lore. He appears to be connected to Justice League recruitment efforts, but fans know Lord is rarely trustworthy. Rounding out the villain squad is White Rabbit, played by Brey Noelle. Known in comics as a socialite with super speed and cloning abilities, she is making her live-action debut. FAQs Who is the main villain in Peacemaker season 2? Six villains, including White Dragon and Maxwell Lord, are set to appear. When does Peacemaker season 2 premiere? The first episode debuts on August 21. Which actors are joining season 2? Michael Rooker, Sean Gunn, Brey Noelle, and Frank Grillo are confirmed for new roles. Will Judomaster be a villain again? His role has not been confirmed, but he is expected to have major fight scenes.

Woman who grew up with monkeys shares her life experience, 'They talk to each other in a language…'
In a world filled with unimaginable childhood stories, Marina Chapman's account of survival stands apart for one reason– it's real. No fiction, no folklore. Just a girl, left alone in the Colombian rainforest at the age of four, who survived by observing and imitating a group of wild monkeys. Her story, now widely discussed after resurfacing in recent interviews, is not framed by drama or exaggeration. It's a stark and honest recollection of what it meant to grow up completely disconnected from human society– and how instinct, silence, and the company of animals helped her endure. Now in her later years, Marina is speaking more openly about her past, not to shock or entertain, but to share what survival looked like when her only teachers were capuchin monkeys. A childhood cut short by abduction Marina's early life in Colombia took a traumatic turn when she was abducted from her village around the age of four, according to a report by UNILAD. The reasons behind the kidnapping remain unclear, but she was eventually abandoned in dense forest territory– alone, frightened, and unsure of what to do next. With no one to call for help and no knowledge of the jungle, she found herself surrounded by a troop of monkeys. Slowly, they became her silent guides. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Pensioners Can Buy These Electric Cars in Malaysia - See Prices Here! Electric Cars | Search Ads Search Now Undo Observing monkeys became her survival strategy In an interview with UNILAD, Marina explained that as the days passed in isolation, she realised that the only way to survive was by following the creatures around her. With no knowledge of edible plants or safe water sources, she began closely observing the monkeys' behaviour. "I didn't know what to eat except the water. And I noticed the monkeys used to eat things. They kept eating something, and I kept watching where they were getting this food, and it took me days to find out where they were getting the food," she told UNILAD. One monkey, she recalls, played an unexpected role in helping her find food by quietly stealing fruit from sleeping humans nearby. "Except one of them was a very good one. He used to go when some Indian people had fallen asleep, and they used to hear the sound of people falling asleep. And he went into their room, very quiet, and he got a lot of food out of these rooms with huge amounts of fruit. And it used to carry so much that he dropped it. And that was the first time I came out and found a banana or other things." This small moment would teach her how to find scattered food– and how to grab it fast. "And I pick it up quickly, but you better move quickly because if you don't, they take it away quickly. So I learned to eat as fast as I could, always." Adapting to the sounds of the forest Jungle life meant staying alert at all times. With no human interaction, Marina learned to understand the meaning behind different monkey sounds– many of which signalled food, threats, or movement. "I had to learn to recognise the sounds. The screechy one, you have to really be careful, you have to hide away. Many sounds mean something. The 'danger' one is the louder one, and then the whistle one is the 'food' one. And each sound means different things, but it took me a while to get used to it. I just learned from watching what they were doing every time I heard the sound." For Marina, these sounds became the difference between staying safe and getting hurt. There was no safety net, only observation and reaction. Found by hunters, but not freed According to the UNILAD report, at around age ten, after nearly six years in the forest, Marina was discovered by hunters. But rescue didn't mean relief. Instead, she was taken away and reportedly sold into a brothel. Her years of jungle survival were followed by fresh trauma in urban society. Eventually, she managed to escape and survive on the streets of Columbia for a period. Her journey from there continued through more difficulties, eventually leading to a new life. Her full story was first detailed in her book The Girl With No Name, published in 2013. Thumb image: Generated by Canva AI (only for representative purposes)
