Soon after ‘Marry My Husband' Song Ha Yoon's statement, the alleged victim comes forward
Song Ha Yoon , a popular actress known for her roles in ' Whistle Blower ', and ' Fight For My Way ', recently shared a detailed statement about the ongoing school bullying allegations last year. Since then, an alleged 'victim' of the actress has come forward online to share their side of the story with the public. Song Ha Yoon's alleged victim comes forward Last year, after Ha Yoon gained popularity for her two-faced villainous role on the K-drama ' Marry My Husband ', allegations of her being involved in school bullying started surfacing online. The main person spreading the allegations was labelled as ' Ms Oh '. Recently, after the actress shared her side of the story, Ms Oh has come forward to share hers. Allkpop reports share that she directly responded in an online post, stating that the actress's school transfers were not her own decision. They happened due to a disciplinary action that occurred because of a school bullying incident years ago. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like One of the Most Successful Investors of All Time, Warren Buffett, Recommends: 5 Books for Turning...

She added that travelling to South Korea for the investigation would be expensive for her. Her statement read that 'I am currently staying abroad long-term, appearing in Korea would require me to bear all costs, including airfare, accommodation, and local expenses. It is excessive and unreasonable to expect a victim to travel to Korea at their own expense for questioning'. Song Ha Yoon's statement In her statement released on July 2, the actress shared a detailed statement about the allegations with the help of her legal representatives in the case. She had firmly denied all allegations that had been put forth online by 'Ms. Oh'. The statement also read that the actress has been taking time to collect evidence of her innocence, which has resulted in the delayed response from her side. Her legal representation also added that the person who spread the rumours is in the U.S, and has been unresponsive and uncooperative about the investigation.

Parades, tech expos, and patriotic tributes: How does Trump plan to celebrate America's 250th Independence Day? What's all in list?
How does Trump plan to celebrate America's 250th Independence Day US President Donald Trump laid out an ambitious blueprint to mark America's 250th year of independence, saying the festivities would stretch from this Fourth of July through to 2026 and reach what he called 'extraordinary' levels. Posting on Truth Social on Tuesday, Trump said he would begin the semiquincentennial build‑up by travelling to Iowa on Thursday, 3 July, for 'a very special event, honouring our Great Country.' He noted that Iowa had voted for him 'THREE TIMES' and promised a crowd‑pleasing evening devoted to farmers, small businesses and 'our Brave Heroes who fought to keep us FREE.' Trump added that he would highlight achievements on trade, 'especially as it relates to Farmers,' and urged supporters to RSVP for the Des Moines gathering, which he expected to draw a 'BIG Crowd.' Beyond the Iowa kickoff, Trump said Americans could expect extensive pomp and circumstance under the America250 banner. According to details already listed on the America250 website, the programme included: America Innovates – a travelling technology exposition showcasing US innovations. America Waves – nationwide flag‑waving events designed to bring communities together. Time Capsule – a 50‑state initiative to gather artefacts for burial in Philadelphia on 4 July 2026. America's Field Trip – a writing and art contest for students in grades 3‑12 on the theme 'What does America mean to you?', available in the 2025‑26 school year. Our American Story – an oral and visual history project collecting everyday narratives, funded by Walmart. July 4, 2026 Activations – a national celebration planned in Washington, DC Trump said the Fourth of July 2025 would serve as the ceremonial starting point for the two‑year celebration, with the individual initiatives unfolding across the country and culminating in the Washington events on 4 July 2026.

Shubman Gill channels his 'childhood' instincts to smash record double century
For Shubman Gill , the key to his historic double hundred at Lord's wasn't a new trick—but an old memory. The India skipper, who became the first Indian and Asian captain to score a Test double hundred in England, said returning to his childhood approach helped him rediscover his joy at the crease. 'In this series, I tried to go back to my basics. I tried to bat like I used to in my childhood. I didn't think about having reached 35-40 runs or about playing long innings. I just wanted to enjoy my batting,' Gill told the host broadcaster after smashing 269 off 387 balls. His record-breaking innings powered India to 587 in the first innings of the second Test and broke multiple milestones along the way. It is now the highest Test score by an Indian on English soil, going past Sunil Gavaskar's 221 at The Oval in 1979, and also surpassed Virat Kohli's 254 as the highest by an Indian Test captain*.

Live Events 'Sometimes, when you aren't scoring runs fluently, you stop enjoying your batting. You focus too much on the need to score runs. I felt I had lost that in my batting. I was so focused that I wasn't enjoying my batting as much.' Gill shared that post-IPL, he made technical changes to his game after a string of 30s and 40s without big conversions. 'Yes, absolutely. I think at the end of the IPL and before this series, I worked a lot on this,' he said. Also Read: India vs England series opens with record-breaking Test viewership on JioHotstar 'I mainly worked on my initial movement and my setup. Before this, I felt my batting was going well. I was scoring 30-35-40 runs consistently in Test matches. But at some point, I was missing that peak concentration time. A lot of people say that when you focus too much, you sometimes miss your peak time.' Gill, who captained Gujarat Titans in IPL 2025, began red-ball preparation during the IPL itself, anticipating the technical shift required for the England series. 'Because the IPL setup, the white-ball setup, and what I wanted to do there were very different. So I thought that if I started my preparation from then itself, it would give me an edge when the time for the series came.' He admitted that switching formats isn't always smooth. 'It is very difficult. Especially with the way T20 is played nowadays… it's easy to go from T20 to T20, but coming back from T20 to Tests is a bit difficult because you have been practising one way with your team and your instincts are tuned to that.' 'Controlling that and repeatedly telling your mind and body to adapt is challenging. That's why I started training for Tests during the IPL itself.' Recalling his conversation with team mentor Gautam Gambhir during tea on Day 1, Gill said: 'I came out and spoke to GG (Gautam Gambhir) Bhai. I told him, 'I'm not getting runs freely, even though I have a lot of shots in my armoury.' I also felt the ball was a bit soft… Still, my mindset was that if the wicket is good and I am set, no matter how long I bat, I shouldn't leave the match halfway.' 'In the last match, I learnt that under these conditions, there can be a collapse in the lower order at any time. So I tried to stay out there as long as I could.' At stumps on Day 2, England were 77/3, with India's pace unit putting the visitors on top. Gill underlined the team's bowling strategy moving forward. 'I think once the ball gets a little old, it becomes difficult to take wickets. So, the more we consistently bowl in one area and frustrate their batsmen, the better it is for us.' 'We will try to make them score in only one area… I think our bowlers executed their plans really well.' '(The pitch) doesn't have a lot for bowlers, but enough that if a batsman tries too hard, there are chances of getting out… We will try to frustrate them and not give them the opportunity to score.'\
