THE BOYZ Announces World Tour; Malaysia Show Set For October
Last year, K-pop idol group THE BOYZ (더보이즈) literally stole the spotlight during their show at Mega Star Arena, Kuala Lumpur. During the encore, the stage lights suddenly went out, plunging the venue into darkness. Fortunately, the power was restored and the idols were able to give fans a proper farewell to end the night.
Let's hope the same incident doesn't happen again, as it was recently confirmed that THE BOYZ will be returning to Malaysia later this year! Here's what we know so far about the upcoming tour:

Jo Yu-ri says she didn't expect her 'Squid Game' role to be this difficult
Jun-hee has to be extra careful in the game due to her condition. Photos: Handout Actress Jo Yu-ri, who plays Kim Jun-hee or Player 222, confesses she was a huge fan of the Squid Game when the first season was released in September 2021. 'I remember watching S1 with my family and thinking to myself, 'I really, really want to be part of a show like this',' recalls the 23-year-old to StarLifestyle in this exclusive Zoom interview to talk about the series' third season. 'What felt so fresh to me was the concept of turning innocent childhood games into something deadly. It was something I had never seen before – shocking, yet incredibly original," she adds. Hence, when she got the chance to audition for S2, she jumped at it. However, Jo says that she had no idea what was in store for her character who turns up at the game, very much pregnant. 'The audition script I received was a dialogue between Jun-hee and Myung-gi (Player 333 portrayed by Im Si-wan). Im Si-wan (left) and Jo Yu-ri play former lovers in the show. Photo: AP 'I knew the role would be challenging, but I didn't expect it to be this difficult,' she shares, smiling at the memory. The level of difficulty she faced is especially impressive considering Jo made her acting debut in 2022's Mimicus and had appeared in just one episode of another K-drama, Work Later, Drink Now 2 (2023), ahead of Squid Game. Prior to acting, she was best known as a member of the South Korean-Japanese girl group Iz*One. While she says there were many challenges as Jun-hee, her biggest concern was playing a pregnant woman convincingly. 'I kept wondering – what if real mothers feel my performance isn't believable, that it lacks authenticity? 'That thought weighed heavily on me. "But thanks to support from my co-star Kang Ae-Shim (who plays Jang Geum-Ja or Player 149), as well as friends and mothers I spoke with, I was able to overcome those fears and carry the part successfully.'

'K-pop Demon Hunters' Director Faces Backlash Following Character Inspiration Revelation
Netflix's latest animated film, 'K-pop Demon Hunters', has proven to be a global hit. Not only did it receive overwhelmingly positive reviews from both K-pop and non-K-pop fans alike, but the film's soundtrack also debuted in the top 10 of the Billboard 200 chart. Even actual K-pop idols themselves are taking part in the dance challenges on social media. Naturally, when a film performs this well, fans are eager to learn more about the creative process. Who were the singers? How long did it take to bring the idea to life? Which K-pop idols inspired the characters? Director Maggie Kang has answered many of these questions, but unfortunately, her latest clarification has not been well received. Here's why: 'K-pop Demon Hunters' creator and director Maggie Kang has addressed several questions regarding the inspiration behind the character designs. Previously, she and her team revealed that Huntr/x were primarily inspired by girl groups such as BLACKPINK, TWICE, and ITZY, while the Saja Boys drew inspiration from BTS, Stray Kids, TXT and ATEEZ. As for the individual characters, BLACKPINK's Jennie (제니) was named as one of the inspirations for the main character, Rumi. Following that revelation, numerous reports and social media posts began circulating, claiming that Jennie was the main inspiration behind the beloved fictional idol. Maggie Kang recently took to Twitter to clarify that Rumi was, in fact, inspired by many leading women in K-pop. 'Names are going around (individual idols + groups) because we only said 'yes' as they were mentioned by interviewers to us, but the list of inspirations for both Huntr/x and the Saja Boys is endless. This has already been clarified to the press.' One might have thought that this clarification would put an end to the discussion. Unfortunately, many BLACKPINK fans were not pleased and accused the director of using Jennie for clout. Some expressed disappointment, pointing out how closely Rumi resembles Jennie during her 'Kill This Love' era, while others accused Maggie Kang of favouritism, noting that she is also a fan of BTS. Fortunately for the creator, many came to her defence, pointing out that she never denied Jennie was one of the many inspirations behind Rumi. Others criticised fans for overreacting to the clarification, while offering insights into how character design typically works. Who would have thought that a simple clarification could spark a fan war? Hopefully, Maggie Kang remains unfazed by the criticism, as many fans are still holding out hope for a sequel to 'K-pop Demon Hunters'.
