The reason being the truth about his father being a murderer will be leaked if he doesn't do what Jae Sang asks. During their trip to Singapore, In Ju is constantly bothered by the fact that her close but dead friend, Jin Hwa Young ( Choo Ja Hyun ), may still be alive! She receives an anonymous tip to watch out for Do Il and to get away from him as fast as she can. While running away with a suitcase of money, In Ju is chased down by Jae Sang's hired hands and gets into a car accident landing her in the hospital.

ARMY's dream has come true! There are a lot of BTS fans around the world who all wished to attend a BTS concert once to see the members, but some of them may not have enough money or time to attend a concert! So what happened when their wish came true? Most of the posts on social media speak about the latest breaking news about BTS Busan concert " Yet To Come " that will be held on October 15, at  Busan Ilgwang special stage in Gijang-gun . HYBE and BIGHIT Music are officially holding the concert for free ! Although the concert will be free of charge, reservations will be required. The goal behind it is to give more interest and support to the WORLD EXPO 2030 BUSAN KOREA. In Busan, ARMYs can also visit BTS Jimin's dad's cafe. ARMYs in the hotel next to where the concert is going to be held, have posted some bright lists and lights with the name of BTS on their windows. The lights that ARMY hung looked cool, especially at night when they light up with BTS names they are the greatest fans! The other ARMYs also search for nearby hotels for the BTS concert in Busan. And many of the tweets in which ARMYs get to know each other meet in Busan after getting the concert ticket and going to Korea. Although the concert is free, not all BTS fans will be able to come to Korea, so there will be an online broadcast of the concert on Weverse . There are some bad points! Because it is a free concert, people are worried about how Busan has acted and how unprepared they seem to be so far. Did you know that Busan’s stadium can’t be used since the roof is leaking and they didn’t fix it in time because of mismanagement? Poor planning and the physical location of the venue make it difficult for fans to attend the event. The arena is located in a residential area with a big open space with sand surrounded by water. The nearest subway station is a 20 min walk, there’s one major road and seemingly no parking. "I will also add that if +praying nothing happens) If something happens, who do you think will get blamed? That being said, We’ll just mention that HYBE (not Busan) has proven that they know how to put on concerts, and they’ll do everything they can to make this a huge success. " - Twitter user So let’s all hope those 100K plus people can attend the concert and be safe. That is one of the major questions Koreans have had for some time now. We weren't aware of any of this! Seeing all the threats they have gotten in the past weeks, it's even scarier now. Not only for their safety but for all the ARMY attending. Hopefully, HYBE saw their emails and will take their safety even more seriously and be aware at all times. What’s important is that everyone, BTS and the audience, can have fun and enjoy the concert and then come home safely! Let’s pray for a successful BTS concert in Busan! Fighting!

#Koreandessert #sweettooth Although Korean food is notorious for its spicy taste, Koreans also have a soft spot when it comes to sweets. Here are three Korean desserts you must try! 1. Bingsu (shaved ice) A perfect summer treat, bingsu has assorted flavors and its commonly served flavor is red bean with condensed milk. You can also drizzle some sweetener like syrup or top the bingsu with fruits to have some taste variation. Some bingsu has some tteok or Korean rice cake in it that makes the shaved ice chewy. 2. Yaksik (sweet rice dessert) This healthy Korean dessert is cooked in a pressure rice cooker for a shorter time or by steaming, which takes longer. Yaksik is made out of pine nuts , chestnuts , and even jujube, also known as red dates or Chinese dates, which are abundant sources of nutrients. 3. Ice Hongsi (iced ripe persimmon) Persimmons are abundant during the autumn season so this dessert is something you shouldn’t miss trying in autumn but it is also perfect for the summer season since it’s a cold dessert. Fun fact! That there are over 400 varieties of persimmons but only 4 of them are edible . Cool isn’t it? Did we satisfy your sweet cravings with the list we shared? Let us know which one you want to try!

#onceuponasmalltown #어쩌다전원일기 #ahnjayoung South Korean telecommunications app giant KakaoTV has adapted a popular web novel series Accidental Country Diary into a fun innocent drama Once Upon a Small Town ! A story about a big city veterinarian who relocates to a small village against his will and befriends a local policewoman with dreams of escaping as soon as possible is one comedic drama you don't want to miss! Here are three reasons why we love this drama! 1. Cute Innocent Characters Han Ji Yul ( Choo Young Woo School 2021 ) is a veterinarian working in Seoul when his grandfather gives him a call to come to Heedong Village, where he runs a veterinary hospital. Ji Yul's grandfather doesn't mention any specifics so Ji Yul is clueless once he arrives. While at the village, Ji Yul begrudgingly befriends a local policewoman, Ahn Ja Young (Park Soo Young or Joy from Red Velvet ). Ja Young grew up in Heedong Village and seems to be friends with all the locals. The two strike a love/hate relationship at first which develops into something more as they get to know each other. Lee Sang Hyeong ( Baek Sung Chul Inspector Koo 2021) is Ja Young's childhood friend and an amazingly cute young farmer. He hides his true feelings for Ja Young, but as soon as he sees Ji Yul spending more time with her, decides to step up and tell her his feelings for her. The three instantly form a love triangle with the awkwardness of high school teenagers as they come together to solve the mundane everyday problems of the town. 2. Situational Comedic Moments This lighthearted drama has so many situational comedic moments such as a minor burglary by a local high schooler which ends up in an inter-town rivalry between the towns' spokeswomen. Or perhaps Ji Yul dealing with the neighbor's son letting himself into Ji Yul's house without permission. These small everyday but hilarious character interactions definitely have us nodding in agreement! 3. Animals Animals Animals! If you're an animal lover or just love farm animals, this drama is for you! With Ji Yul being a veterinarian, you're bound to see the cutest farm animals in every episode! Each episode deals with the town's livestock or pets, so sit down with your pet and enjoy this drama! Let us know if you love this drama as much as we do!
