Baseball player Choo Shin Soo announces that his sons renounced their Korean citizenship

          Comments

t/n: Choo Shin Soo plays for the Texas Rangers of Major League Baseball. His agent in Korea recently announced that Choo Shin Soo's two sons (14 and 11 years old) decided to relinquish their Korean citizenships. His children were born and raised in the United States. The agent revealed that Choo Shin Soo is respecting his sons' decision and doesn't understand why this is becoming such an issue.

According to the agent, Choo Shin Soo asked his children, "Do you have thoughts of living in Korea when you grow older?" and his sons responded, "I like Korea but there isn't much I know about Korea. I want to live in the U.S."

Most people are being understanding since the children were born and raised in the U.S. for their entire life but some people are criticizing Choo Shin Soo and his family. The criticizers are comparing Choo Shin Soo to Yoo Seung Jun - who's most known for ending his career after he went and became a U.S. citizen to evade his mandatory military service. Ever since then, Yoo Seung Jun has been permanently banned from entering the country.

1. [+16861, -325] Telling them to serve in the Korean military when they were born and raised in the U.S. is a bit......
↪ [+358, -98] It doesn't matter. But it's not good to see them keeping the daughter's dual citizenship and leaving it to observe the situation and utilize the Korean citizenship while seeing only their sons getting out of it

2. [+8693, -182] They live in the U.S. but why are people talking about Korean military service~?? ㅡ Who are they comparing them to.. Yoo Seung Jun received benefits from Korea and then evaded military service but Choo Shin Soo's sons are kids who have never lived in Korea before.... You should make good judgement before you shit on people

3. [+7260, -1197] Even the president's daughter immigrated so patriotism is eh... .... ... (t/n: You can read about Moon Jae In's daughter moving here - Donga Ilbo)

4. [+3060, -325] Has Kang Kyung Ha's daughter not renounced her U.S. citizenship yet? 

5. [+1125, -34] They're unfamiliar with Korea because they were raised in the U.S., of course the children would choose their familiar U.S. citizenship than the unfamiliar Korean citizenship. How is that an evading military service controversy? Then are all second-generation Koreans living abroad evading their military service? Yoo Seung Jun promoted as a celebrity in the country, earned money off of that popularity, and was a celebrity that gained a profit off of that popularity - no one forced him to say it but with his own mouth, he said that he'll enlist and after he became popular again, he suddenly acquired a U.S. citizenship and scammed people - how is this related to Choo Shin Soo's sons? Don't rip people apart while emphasizing patriotism just anywhere, that's not patriotism but totalitarianism or in other words, just fascism.

[JTBC's Camping Club Roundup] Episode 4

      , , ,     Comments

Nationwide ratings for episode 4 that aired on August 4: 3.5% (cr. Naver TV)

1. [+3027, -41] Group members don't all need to be close like sisters or spend time like best friends. Lee Hyori on TV said that it was business.. that they don't stay in contact but I think she was saying that there wasn't particularly any animosity. It's a lot more realistic and better than being fake and acting close
↪ [+139, -2] While living - there are times where it's not like you don't like someone but your preferences are completely opposite.. It's hard to become close to people like that and it's not like you don't like them but you end up getting distant with them...

2. [+1885, -25] Since I've lived how your emotions in your twenties can be different from your emotions in your thirties, I can feel it.. There are things that you know only after it passes by.. ㅠㅠ It makes me think of my friends from my early twenties

3. [+870, -19] I had a friend who I wanted to distance myself from but I couldn't because we were in the same circle. After speaking to them after time passed by, we each had a misunderstanding and we acknowledged it but it took along time. Lee Jin-nim, Lee Hyori-nim - it's really nice to watch and it's heartwarming 

4. [+839, -39] I cried with them ㅠ These unnis are honest about themselves so they're even cooler ♡♡♡

5. [+593, -9] To be honest, I was a bit surprised. The FinKL members weren't at Lee Hyori's wedding and a lot of people said this or that when there would be articles about how the rest of the members would meet up without Lee Hyori... Hyori was worried about it too...... As time passes by, it happened naturally but in other people's perspective, they still pushed the image of the four of them so I think she received a lot of stress....

6. [+483, -30] It's a show that's moving and funny 

1. [+2089, -46] Of course the competition these days is severe but if you compare Sung Yuri to idols these days, her beauty was a wall. And even Lee Hyori, if you compare her to celebrities these days, her visuals are enough and she has variety skills.

2. [+1214, -111] Even if they say that~ They were a group that did quite well with their live performances ㅎㅎ They're better than girl groups these days, especially Ok Joo Hyun was a wall and Lee Hyori also did well ㅎ

 3. [+1023, -30] If you watched the variety shows that Lee Hyori appeared on since the past, her way with words was quite simple and I think she's overflowing with humor. Should I say that you can sense a relaxed specialty in her way of speaking? I don't feel any burden because she has a familiar sense to her like an unni/nuna who lives next door to you in your neighborhood.

 4. [+896, -21] But their star quality is the best, I acknowledge it

 5. [+775, -30] For Sung Yuri, whether it's now or the past, she's really daebak for her beauty - she's the one top

 1. [+1037, -17] Man Wol's expression at the end was insane.. I have a feeling tomorrow's episode is going to be hella fun

 4. [+377, -17] ManChan couple ㅜㅜ They look good together the more you watch them, I think IU and Yeo Jin Goo will receive the best couple award at the award shows for the ManChan pairing! Also, everyone have a good night and have good dreams, I hope everyone's family lives a long life

 5. [+310, -4] It's crazy ㅠㅠㅠ Today's episode was really sentimental

Original Source (tvN via Naver): [Spoiler ending] Yeo Jin Goo's girl, Park Yoo Na awakens Lee Ji Eun's past memories!

1. [+3111, -31] Wow it's my first time watching a drama that makes me curious about the past scenes... 

2. [+2151, -89] I think IU is also the best as actor Lee Ji Eun - her expression acting is the best 

 3. [+2058, -16] Chan Sung, you need to properly choose which side to stand on

 4. [+1874, -27] I'm already mad that the princess aimed the knife at Man Wol.. Even in the present, the princess is interfering with their date ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

 5. [+1692, -18] First of all, the certain thing is that the princess is a bad person and Yeon Woo experienced a sad death.....

Original Source (tvN via Naver): Pyo Ji Hoon tears up as he comes across his younger sister who's ardently waiting for him

 1. [+1683, -19] I don't think that Ji Hyun Joong person is the real brother....
↪ [+651, -7] I think she has dementia - he's her husband but she misses her brother so maybe she keeps saying "oppa, oppa"?   

 2. [+1598, -25] Maybe her husband is playing along because she sees her husband as her brother because of dementia so the husband is playing along for his wife..
ㅠㅡㅠ 

 3. [+1221, -20] I'm thinking that the younger sister either has dementia or she's blind so when her brother passed away during the war, the parents hid the truth from the daughter and adopted a son

 4. [+1113, -9] Will Hyun Joong go off first ㅠㅠ I think it'll be sad to see the Del Luna family going away ㅠ  

 5. [+848, -13] I seriously think the character Ji Hyun Joong is really charismatic

Jang Nara and Kim Nam Gil denies sudden report about them marrying in November

      ,     Comments

t/n: On an online community, there's rumors spreading that Dispatch uploading a report about Jang Nara and Kim Nam Gil getting married and quickly deleted the report. According to the "screenshot" that was taken, the screenshot said: "[Exclusive] Great actor Kim Nam Gil and baby face beauty Jang Nara getting married in November after 7 years of dating" but in the screenshot, the picture of Jang Nara had another news company's logo on it. In 2013, Kim Nam Gil and Jang Nara briefly had dating rumors after Kim Nam Gil gifted Jang Nara with a food truck after she won the excellence award during the 2013 KBS Drama Awards. At the time, Jang Nara refuted the rumors by explaining that they're close colleagues.  

1. [+322, -7] The <Dispatch Screenshot> associated with Kim Nam Gil and Jang Nara's marriage is photoshopped. Someone photoshopped the front page of the website. Even the photos of Jang Nara and Kim Nam Gil are pictures from other news outlets. Dispatch said that they don't know about them dating. In the end, it's fabricated. 

2. [+306, -9] It's a complete random pairing but it's daebak, they even dated for 7 years

3. [+117, -18] If Dispatch immediately took it down then that means something

4. [+40, -8] Are they writing a fanfic? Dating for seven years and getting married in November? It doesn't seem like it's actor Kim Nam Gil, maybe it's businessman Kim Nam Gil?

5. [+34, -8] But they somewhat look good together 
Original Source (news1 via Naver): Jang Nara on marriage rumors with Kim Nam Gil, "I don't even know his phone number…Tragic · feels like I'm being mocked"

 t/n: Jang Nara uploaded on her Instagram, "This post isn't an explanation or an excuse. It's terrible. A post someone wrote that has no footing or ending became a matter of fact overnight and it's becoming a story. It feels like I'm being mocked for no reason or grounds. I'm also scared that things like this will keep happening from now on. It's not true - there's no reason for me to see him and I don't even know his contact information." Dispatch released a statement that they didn't publish an exclusive report and that it was photoshopped.

 1. [+2135, -18] Let's charge the reporter who wrote the article

 2. [+1300, -27] [Exclusive] Kangta on his bed at home texting other girls 

 3. [+831, -46] There's rumors that fans of SM's director Kangta spread the rumor so that they can cover his issue, it's awk

 4. [+325, -8] Kangta likes this article

 5. [+234, -4] Ahn Chil Hyun likes this article. (t/n: Ahn Chil Hyun is Kangta's birth name)

 6. [+104, -12] Why does it have to be Kim Nam Gil... I was surprised... Don't mess with Kim Nam Gil...
