Kspice News 2.0 - Invidious

Actress Park Shin Hye has opened up about her anticipation for the upcoming tvN drama Undercover Miss Hong a retro office comedy set in the late 1990s.

In the series, Park Shin Hye stars as Hong Geum Bo, a sharp and accomplished elite officer in her 30s from the Financial Supervisory Service. To investigate suspicious financial activities, she goes undercover as a 20-year-old entry-level employee at a securities firm, hiding her age, credentials, and expertise.

Sharing what drew her to the project, Park Shin Hye said, "I was attracted to the fact that it's a period drama, something I've never attempted before. The idea of Hong Geum Bo—an ace in the Financial Supervisory Service during a time when it was difficult for women to succeed professionally—disguising herself as a junior staff member felt incredibly charming and appealing."

The drama promises hilarious workplace chaos, intriguing character dynamics, and nostalgic 90s vibes. It is scheduled to premiere on January 17, 2026, on tvN. Fans are eagerly awaiting Park Shin Hye's versatile performance in this fresh role!

The 2025 Blue Dragon Film Awards may have wrapped up on November 19, but the online storm it ignited shows no signs of fading. In a rare move, Son Ye-jin has finally addressed the wave of criticism over her Best Actress win—edging out heavy hitters like Song Hye-kyo and Lee Hye-young—via a touching message that has fans rallying and detractors rethinking their stance.

What was meant to be a fairy-tale evening for the power couple Hyun Bin and Son Ye-jin quickly devolved into a battleground of opinions. The duo made headlines as the first married pair in the awards' 46-year history to claim Best Actor and Best Actress honors in the same year, with Hyun Bin celebrated for *Harbin* and Son for her supporting-yet-pivotal role as the resilient wife in Park Chan-wook's satirical thriller *No Other Choice*. They even swept the Popularity Awards, turning the KBS Hall stage into a family affair—complete with heartfelt dedications to each other and their young son, Kim Woo-jin.

Yet, the triumphs were overshadowed by swift backlash. Netizens flooded forums like TheQoo and Weibo, questioning the jury's judgment in a process that blends eight expert votes with a single public ballot. Hyun Bin's win drew fire for allegedly favoring star power over depth, with fans championing Park Jung-min's raw intensity in *The Ugly* or Lee Byung-hun's layered lead in *No Other Choice*. Son's victory sparked even fiercer debate: her character, Mi-ri, commands just 30-35% of the screen time, leading some to argue it didn't qualify as a true leading role. The controversy peaked with a leaked voting sheet revealing Song Hye-kyo received zero votes across all rounds—despite her commanding presence in *Dark Nuns*—prompting viral memes, boycott calls, and accusations of bias toward established names.

On November 22, Son Ye-jin stepped into the fray through an emotional post via Hankook Ilbo, sharing fresh, intimate photos from the night: her radiant smile beside Hyun Bin's proud gaze, both still glowing under the event's lights. "It feels like I'm floating in the clouds, unsure how many days have passed," she confessed, admitting the surreal high of her dual wins—Best Actress and Popularity—still hadn't worn off. In a nod to the uproar, she apologized for any overlooked thank-yous during her onstage speech, where she reflected on her journey: "I won my first Blue Dragon Best Actress at 27. Now, after marriage and motherhood, I see the world anew and strive to grow as both a person and an artist." She poured gratitude toward her family, co-stars like Lee Byung-hun and Kim Hyang-gi, and unwavering fans, emphasizing, "This honor belongs to everyone who believed in me."

The response was electric. Within hours, her words trended worldwide, amassing millions of views and a flood of supportive posts. Fans defended the jury's eye for nuance, pointing out *No Other Choice*'s seven total wins—including Best Picture and Best Director for Park Chan-wook—as proof of the film's artistic merit. Son Ye-jin's grace is unmatched—backlash can't dim her shine," one user wrote, while others highlighted her emotional depth in portraying quiet strength amid crisis.

Even skeptics softened, praising her humility in a cutthroat industry.

Critics, however, dug in, amplifying snubs like *My Daughter Is a Zombie*'s lone Audience Award or the oversight of *The Old Woman with the Knife*'s bold storytelling. The Song Hye-kyo zero-vote bombshell fueled broader conversations on award transparency, online toxicity, and whether popularity eclipses pure performance. As one commentator noted, "It's not about deserving—it's about who the system favors.

Through it all, Son Ye-jin's poised reply stands as a masterclass in resilience, transforming potential scandal into a testament to her enduring appeal. Love her win or not, this historic moment for Korean cinema—and the BinJin legacy—is etched in the stars. The debate rages on, but one thing's clear: gratitude, it seems, is the ultimate award.
