Kian84 under scrutiny for the meaning of his pen name, accused of being misogynistic

      ,     Comments

Quick Recap: 
Someone made a post on the I Live Alone message board with the pic above which explains the meaning behind Kian84's name and requesting he gets taken off of the show. The picture which is a screenshot of Kian84's blog says: 
The meaning of Kian84 - the city where the rice paddies are beautiful and girls go missing, the 84-er who used to live in Gian-dong in the city of Hwaseong.  
Some people are accusing him of being misogynistic and flooding the 'I Live Alone'-message boards to kick him out of the show.

1. [+14745, -1672] So they found something about him to drag about ㅉ (t/n: ㅉ is the sound of tsk tsk) they're hella reaching ㅉ (t/n: the comment is basically saying that people are blowing things out of proportion)

2. [+13120, -1412] What kind of nonsense is this? This is the first time I've seen someone reaching this far 

3. [+10647, -1344] Don't blow things out of proportions, you people are something else

4. [+9966, -1268] What a load of BS ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+5670, -803] If you read a few chapters of Kian's work 'Bokhak King' or see how he is on 'I Live Alone', you'll be able to tell that he's not the type of person to be affiliated with misogynistic people. Why are you needling

6. [+2182, -468] Stop it already... Stop trying to drive a person away, is your goal to have them commit suicide.. You can tell that little kids aren't the ones behind this but it's surprising that all the posters are women.. there's a lot of regular women but where did this person dig this up..?


1. [+4946, -1041] No, seriously... he never said that he liked the city where girls disappeared, he just said that he lived in an area where things like that have occurred, why are they reacting as if he did?? Why did we become a society where we have to find people's faults. 

2. [+4222, -973] It's a witch hunt... 

3. [+3830, -909] It's easy to send someone into their grave *sigh*

4. [+3493, -969] The people are really insane, Kian is hard carrying 'I Live Alone', if he gets kicked out, the show is going to fail 

5. [+3292, -848] Tumbling over something so useless, he only said he was born there

 6. [+984, -543] Sis please stop;;; 

1. [+885, -136] Don't blow things out of proportions

2. [+755, -92] In my eyes, it looks like Kian84's own self-torturing sense of humor... them overanalyzing things is scary

3. [+703, -134] Whatever you do, they say you're demeaning women ㅡㅡ Hey journalist, don't demean men~ 

4. [+637, -115] There sure are a lot of people who live life stiffly.. Hey you people, instead of worrying about what to post, worry about your lives..

5. [+321, -51] This is so annoying ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ He's Kian84 simply because he was born in 1984 in Gian-dong, calling that misogynistic ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+141, -55] This is so annoying 

1. [+474, -78] Stop overanalyzing things you idiots

2. [+402, -69] At this rate, don't you think Kian84 will just leave the show on his own because his anxiety will worsen???,?,,,,, so just stop it, you professional haters

3. [+291, -57] The female ilbe coordinated it and is terrorizing him 

4. [+285, -52] The funny thing about the people coordinating this is that they don't attack 'Memories of Murder' ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ isn't that movie title more of a glamorization?

[Friday Variety Roundup] I Live Alone, Youn's Kitchen

      , , , , ,     Comments

He was ranked first in the Wednesday webtoon rankings for 4 years consecutively but then he was recently knocked off and his rank fell :/ But he said that the thing that's more dangerous than your rank falling is getting used to that feeling... 

1. [+1791, -85] Kian's in first place right now, fighting!

2. [+1681, -44] The pain of writer's block..

3. [+1259, -78] I feel bad ㅜㅜ

4. [+1089, -59] He's a matchless character ㅋㅋ Stay strong Kian

5. [+986, -112] The thing about life is that if you gain something, you also lose something. Let's not feel dejected 

6. [+311, -14] There are times when people are on the top and times where they fall~ Going through a crisis is an opportunity!...Can we even call it a crisis~? Other artists have a hard time even getting to third place but he was ranked 1st for 4 years, that's amazing~.. You did well even up until now. Since you're in a daze, just don't think about anything and take a break. When you properly take a break, an idea will come to you. Go visit Busan with Si Eon~ 

1. [+5575, -195] Kian's charm is that you don't know where he'll run off to ㅋㅋ It was so funny when he told Lee Si Eon to get an enema treatment ㅋㅋ

2. [+4756, -139] Both Kian and Narae were funny in today's episode, Narae's sleep consultation was really useful and I felt bad for Kian cause of his writer's block.

3. [+4661, -544] They're weirdly charming ~~ At first he was really unlikeable but it's really cool how much he's dedicated in his work, he's the type that makes a girl want to take care of him ㅎㅎ

4. [+2832, -117]  Fighting ^^

5. [+1008, -54] Whenever Hye Jin unni says "Narae-ah~, Narae-ah~", it's so~~sweet, she's Han Da Jung~ (t/n: 다정, da jung in Korean means tender, warm-hearted)  

6. [+893, -52] He doesn't seem like a person who's fake 

7. [+925, -107] Is Kian getting more and more handsome or are we seeing him as handsome now cause we're seeing him so often? Something about him is now ㅎㅎㅎ

Kian's Grafen CF: Link

1. [+2393, -69] I saw the CF on TV by chance and saw it by thinking: "Oh! Is that Kian?" 

2. [+2320, -210] I like Kian84

3. [+2261, -178] Kian gets more charming the more you seem him ㅋㅋ

4. [+1138, -65] ㅋㅋ

5. [+921, -57] Seeing how much Kian is trying, I feel bad, I'm sure he's really stressed, I hope he tries hard and gets back on his groove ㅜㅜ


1. [+7274, -195] Lee Seo Jin are you watching! Season 3 is confirmed!

2. [+5392, -156] Wow 15%~~~~ Lee Seo Jin, keep your promise! 

3. [+4886, -168] We should follow up with the promise and go for season 3?? ㅋ Congrats!!!

4. [+3927, -431] Youn's Kitchen is one of the best programs these days. I laughed so much yesterday, I thought my belly button would fall off ㅠ It's so funny and good ㅋㅋ ㅠㅠ

5. [+3452, -211] It is indeed fun to watch 

6. [공감1463비공감114] This made me really see Park Seo Joon in a different light. He's not just a celebrity, he's a well-rounded youth

7. [+1472, -124] Casting Park Seo Joon was God's work.. Park Seo Joon is cool... 

8. [+1221, -78] Seriously, they don't have a specific plot but you seriously still get pulled in.... your heart feels comfy when you watch it ㅠㅠㅠ

Kim Jun Ho confesses his feelings about his recent divorce and asks people to refrain from leaving hate comments

      , , ,     Comments

1. [+5100, -169] Happy people don't leave hate comments. Only unhappy people feel relief when they leave hate comments.

2. [+4426, -170] This is Kim Jun Ho-like.. He only requests things, he's so nice 

3. [+3468, -440] To be honest, it was weird that they were still in a married status,.,

4. [+2361, -54] I hope both of them don't get hurt and are only filled with happiness in the future. I'm always supporting your cheery image. 

5. [+2139, -48] You must've really went through a lot during that time, live happily~

6. [+697, -105] It's no one's fault.. But it's true that he paid for her education abroad for more than 10 years and even supported her business endeavors. They don't even have a kid. 

7. [+627, -75] Only the couple would know the exact details but from a third person's POV, you can't overlook the fact that the guy was kind of played.

8. [+569, -64] In this divorce, the guy needs to receive alimony.

Comedian Kim Jun Ho files for divorce after 11 years of marriage

      , ,     Comments

1. [+14704, -340] I don't blame him for divorcing... He was basically a goose father (t/n: goose fathers are basically men who stay behind to work in Korea in order to pay for their families to live and study abroad). His wife always went abroad, do you think any affection would've blossomed 

2. [+7753, -170] You really can't judge celebrities based on the things they show off on TV.. they all have their own issues...

3. [+5723, -191] The 1N2D members have been going through a tough time lately 

4. [+5305, -91] Stay strong....

5. [+3566, -106] Aigoo ㅜㅜㅜ

6. [+2868, -24] They kind of felt like a couple on display... In the end, they ended up divorcing... I thought it was weird how she was always abroad and never came home, it's not like they went abroad for the child's sake, they don't even have kids 

7. [+2131, -94] Wow... seriously... he married the person he loved and had to send her off abroad.. he survived it until this point and now they're divorcing... Seriously, I only feel bad for Kim Jun Ho...  

8. [+1695, -35] So they ended up divorcing... Kim Jun Ho really put up with it for a long time.. She went to study abroad as soon as they got married, it ended with him paying for her tuition for 10 years

9. [+1607, -30] I wondered why they got married

10. [+1453, -30] It's totally reasonable. It's not like she went abroad for a child's sake, she was living alone abroad, it's not like he's a goose father either

2. [+1442, -16] Ah even I'm shaking ~~ It was cold, you suffered

3. [+1381, -17] Watching Jo Se Ho was so funny and made me shiver.... It was funny. You're cute.

4. [+1273, -9] Seeing all the weather casters suffering because of the cold makes me grateful for them every day

5. [+1054, -21] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ It was kkuljaem 

6. [+362, -2] He perfectly turned into a weather caster. I don't think any of the other members would've done a good job as him, excluding Yoo Jae Suk. He did a really good job. 

1. [+104, -41] He really is an inconvenience tsk tsk his agency didn't want to give out refunds so they continued on with the concert while they're in this situation, the singer and the agency match so well

2. [+115, -54] Even though he's under a controversy, he had a solo concert ㅋㅋㅋㅋ he's something else, just buzz off

3. [+100, -41] Since a long time ago, I thought there was something fake about Jung Yong Hwa.... he doesn't seem like a well-rounded person 

4. [+73, -33] Inconvenience

1. [+1311, -93] Sung Hoon's chemistry with his health club director is killer ㅎ

2. [+1153, -65] The director threw up ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+832, -93] ㅋㅋㅋㅋ It's been a while since I had to hold onto my stomach while I laughed, Sung Hoon's part is so funny 

4. [+754, -117] Sung Hoon was so good yesterday. Please come out more often.

5. [+694, -89] How can these two be this funny?ㅋㅋ I hope they come out more often

1. [+3455, -108] Kian's six pack please come back....

2. [+2545, -103] Kian's parts are always funny but I exploded during the last part of Sung Hoon's part ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The vomit hard carried ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Also I'm looking forward to next week's episode ㅋㅋ Is that butt sweat on Kian in the previews ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+2404, -64] He wasn't just skinny, he also worked out during those days.. whatever people say, the best type of plastic surgery is weight loss..ㄷㄷ

4. [+1737, -66] The house's view is so cool but Woo Ki Myung is scary (t/n: Woo Ki Myung is one of Kian's characters in his webtoon - his most popular. Kian and Choong Jae made statue of him)

5. [+1412, -87] Kian's six pack is cool

6. [+426, -30] Kian84 really seems like a nice person, I hope he becomes more successful 

1. [+5024, -94] Wow.. Isn't Park Seo Joon really good at Spanish even though he's only studied it for a short time? Just like the captions say, he doesn't carelessly use his time and is highly skilled! When he was working out near the sea, I really thought it was a CF ㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+3963, -90] What is it that Park Seo Joon can't do.. He's good at working, he's good at speaking Spanish, and seeing him working out before going to work looks like a scene for a photoshoot ㅠ he's so cool

3. [+3742, -53] I was proud seeing the customers becoming fans of the japchae, bibimbop, and sweet and sour chicken... Director Lee is always right when creating a new menu.. ㅋ

[Variety Roundup] I Live Alone, Youn's Kitchen, Infinite Challenge

      , , , , ,     Comments
Original Source (TV Report via Naver): Lee Pil Mo "Didn't realize my actions after showering would look that sexual hahaha" 

1. [+8904, -90] Yesterday's story perfectly showed the charms of 'I Live Alone'. If you live alone, of course you don't talk. If you're home alone, it's possible for you to not talk the entire day unless you get a phone call

2. [+6208, -59] It was really funny because they put a robot/AI concept and captions on his easygoing personality ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+5146, -58] ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ made the person watching embarrassed ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ it was too real

4. [+4286, -51] Real humanity ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+3772, -74] He does seem handsome ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+1182, -6] If it wasn't a filming, I don't think he would've been wearing underwear ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

7. [+1103, -10] He didn't seem like he was trying to show anything off... I liked it because it just looks like his real self 
Original Source (Sports Chosun via Naver): "Ended up being a famous Korean actor"..Spain is also swept away by Youn's Kitchen's popularity

1. [+12884, -724] When that girl came with her boyfriend and said aren't Koreans always handsome after she saw Lee Seo Jin and Park Seo Joon, I felt proud for no reason. For a time, when Gangnam Style hit daebak, people said that they thought all Koreans would look like Psy.. ㅋ

2. [+8403, -176] Youn's Kitchen is amazing

3. [+6663, -170] Youn's Kitchen is so good

4. [+6341, -160] You feel healed and even more healed after watching the show

5. [+2037, -136] From now on, don't go on vacation to that town.. Let's keep the illusion alive that all Korean men are handsome. If you really want to go, be mindful and act like you're Chinese or Japanese, understand? 
↪ [+327, -8] ㅋㅋㅋ
↪ [+170, -6] Sumimasen;;; (t/n: "Excuse me" in Japanaese)

6. [+1252, -69] Na Young Seok PD is Korea's best PD... he's really amazing  

1. [+1060, -49] I really liked how they didn't just show the process from the perspective of an applicant but also showed the perspective of the interviewers, which is really informative. To all of the job applicants, I support you and your 2018! Fighting!

2. [+865, -51] I really like MuDo for always supporting people~

3. [+841, -43] I really like the Se Ho-Se Hyung maknae line

4. [+588, -39] Because of MuDo, Saturday's aren't lonely^^♥

5. [+410, -34] Ah this was a throwback

6. [+164, -16] Jung Jun Ha and Park Myung Soo seem like they're stuck in a rut of blaming their older age, show us that you're working hard like Yoo Jae Suk

7. [+178, -31] If Park Myung Soo, Jung Jun Ha, and HaHa don't want to do this anymore, then they should just leave now 
↪ [+59, -3] They make it so obvious that they don't want to do it ㅋ
↪ [+35, -3] They're really hella boring 

8. [+155, -24] Just replace Park Myung Soo, Jung Jun Ha, and HaHa~~ They have no drive because they're so full of it now and they can't even fit in well..
