Amid the Moon Ga Bi scandal, actor Jung Woo Sung confirms his first significant public appearance.
Actor Jung Woo Sung confirms 1st major public appearance amid Moon Ga Bi controversy
Jung Woo Sung will still be attending the Blue Dragon Awards scheuled for this week despite an emerging controversy surrounding his paternity.
Actor Jung Woo Sung, agency, Artist Company confirmed on Monday that he would be attending the upcoming 45th Blue Dragon Awards ceremony this week. The prestigious event that annually honours greats from the South Korean film industry is scheduled to be held on November 29 at KBS Hall in Seoul. The veteran critically acclaimed actor is nominated in the Best Actor category for 12.12: The Day. Having already earned the stature as one of the highest-grossing Korean films of all time, the 2023 film earned several nods across other categories as well.
Jung Woo Sung’s company responds to reports of his paternity reports
The company’s official confirmation regarding its artist’s attendance came shortly after it was reported that the actor in his 50s is the biological father of Moon Ga Bi’s son, who was born in March. The Korean model is in her 30s. Hours before Artist Company assured that the Tell Me That You Love Me actor would still be attending the Blue Dragon Awards, South Korean outlet TENASIA reported that he has been dating a non-celebrity for more than a year. Consequently, the agency released another statement: “The child shared by Moon Ga Bi on social media is indeed Jung Woo Sung’s biological son. Discussions are ongoing regarding the best way to handle the child’s upbringing. Jung Woo Sung is committed to taking full responsibility for his child.”
Meanwhile, addressing reports about his relationship status, the label stated, “We ask for your understanding that we cannot confirm details regarding the actor’s private life, and we request that excessive speculation be avoided.”
Regardless of these explanations, K-entertainment enthusiasts launched a fiery debate surrounding Jung Woo Sung’s paternity confirmation and romantic controversy.
Jung Woo Sung and Moon Ga Bi’s ties explored
As for Moon’s response to the issue, she wrote on social media, “When I received this unexpected news, I was unprepared. Instead of fully celebrating the joy of pregnancy, I chose to spend most of my pregnancy quietly with my family’s blessings. That decision was made solely for the sake of the child I was carrying.” As per her Instagram activity, Ga Bi appeared to have been on an SNS hiatus. Her latest post about her pregnancy was shared days ago, two years following the post before that.
Jung Woo Sung and Moon Ga Bi reportedly crossed paths for the first time in 20222, resulting in their eventual romantic entanglement. Multiple reports suggest that Moon told Jung about her pregnancy later that year, and the actor positively responded by taking responsibility for raising the child. On the other hand, the South Korean movie star has persistently retained his take against getting married, which is believed to have led to some tensions between him and the model.

About the trailer
The trailer, which dropped on Monday, sets the tone for a poignant and musical journey. It opens with the revelation that Naseeruddin Shah’s character has passed away. His demise sets off a chain of events, as his family embarks on a quest to preserve his musical legacy, which appears to have been tarnished.
The romantic drama show features actors Ritwik Bhowmik and Shreya Chaudhry as Radhe and Tamanna, two musicians who come from different worlds of music. The trailer shows both of them come face to face in a musical battle where they have to navigate their passion while confronting their feelings.
The trailer also introduces Divya Dutta as a teacher. Sheeba Chaddha, Atul Kulkarni, Rajesh Tailang, and Kunaal Roy Kapur are also reprising their characters in the show.
The trailer also comes with hints that the season will also explore bigger issues such as the world of reality shows, and gender roles in the musical industry. Staying true to the premise, music seems to be the focus for the second part as well.
Team excited about chapter two
Actor Ritwik Bhowmik is happy to be back in the musical world of the show. “For me, stepping into the shoes of Radhe is like coming home after a long day. It is a character I am grateful to have played for several reasons, most importantly, how much it has taught me as an actor and a person,” Ritwik said in a statement, adding, “With the second season we see Radhe really grow into his own and embrace the responsibility of keeping his family’s traditions and legacy alive in an increasingly fast-paced and modern world while navigating his relationship with Tamanna”.
For Shreya Chaudhry, stepping back into Tamanna’s world was like reconnecting with an old friend. “There’s something deeply special about playing a character who is chasing her dreams while navigating love and the pressures of legacy—it mirrors the journey so many of us go through. It has been an absolute honour to watch and learn from the series’ incredible cast and I hope this season inspires people to believe in the beauty of their passion, just as it has reminded me of my own,” she said.
Talking about the show, creator and director Anand Tiwari shared, “This season we have pushed the boundaries and strived to tell a story that is rooted, relatable and immensely engaging. I’m grateful to have the most collaborative team of actors and technicians working on this series, and I am looking forward to the premiere of this much-awaited season”.

The show has been created by Amritpal Singh Bindra and Anand Tiwari. The first season of Bandish Bandits was released in August 2020. The sophomore chapter was directed by Anand and has co-written the series alongside Atmika Didwania and Karan Singh Tyagi.

What Shalini said
“This is a question that I’ve been asking everybody: Why am a I born here? What is my purpose? As a human being, you do your best. My entire acting fee actually goes to a village through UNICEF in Bihar. Everything that I do, all my earnings go to charity. I work diligently with them,” Shalini said.
“Beyond that also, I’ve been trying to create a show about women’s voices, and another one representing Indian culture. However, I have often received feedback that there’s not enough audience to watch these shows. I am ready to show India its culture, the power of women, but the audiences have to be ready. It’s just not about my time, it’s about production and the cost as well,” she added.

Shalini is an art collector and aficionado based in South Delhi. Married to Sanjay Passi, Chairman of the Pasco Group, they have a son named Robin. She’s also a fitness enthusiast and philanthropist. She started The Shalini Passi Art Foundation and MASH India, which promote emerging artists in India. She’s also been a BFF of Gauri Khan, interior designer, film producer, and Shah Rukh Khan’s wife, from the latter’s Delhi days before marriage.
Shalini made her screen debut as one of the Delhi wives in season 3 of Netflix India reality show The Fabulous Lives of Bollywood Wives, alongside Kalyani Saha and Riddhima Kapoor. The Bollywood wives – Neelam, Maheep Kapoor, Bhavana Pandey, and Seema Sajdeh – also returned to season 3, and were pitted against the Delhi wives in the show. Produced by Karan Johar’s Dharmatic Entertainment, season 3 of the show premiered last month. Shalini emerged as arguably the favourite of the season subsequently.

Samantha Ruth Prabhu begged Raj & DK to let her leave Citadel Honey Bunny; sent Kriti Sanon, Kiara Advani’s pictures
Samantha Ruth Prabhu felt that she would be unable to do justice to Citadel: Honey Bunny because of her health struggles.
Samantha Ruth Prabhu has transformed into an action star, first in part with her Telugu film Yashoda and now fully with the Amazon Prime Video series Citadel: Honey Bunny. The Raj & DK series features her as a spy and sees the actor perform many fight sequences. In a recent interview, Samantha opened up on how she shot the series while battling myositis and even begged the makers to replace her. (Also read: Varun Dhawan reveals he panicked, called for ‘pack up’ when Samantha Ruth Prabhu collapsed on Citadel: Honey Bunny set)
Samantha on wanting to leave Citadel Honey Bunny
In a conversation with Galatta India, Samantha revealed that while she was initially excited to come on board Honey Bunny, she later felt she wouldn’t be able to do it. “I didn’t think that a few months later, I would request Raj & DK to choose another heroine because it was not possible. I believe I couldn’t do it because of the circumstances I was in,” she said. Myositis, an autoimmune disorder, took a toll on Samantha’s health, requiring hospitalisation.
The actor said she suggested names of other actors to the series directors Raj & DK, but they did not budge. “I actually sent them Kiara’s pictures and Kriti’s pictures. I remember sending four to them, saying ‘Oh my God, she is so hot. Just look at her. She will be amazing doing action. Please, I can’t do it,” said Samantha, adding, “They said we know them. You don’t have to introduce us to them. We know who they are.”
All about Citadel Honey Bunny
In the end, Samantha did finish Citadel: Honey Bunny, which also stars Varun Dhawan, Kay Kay Menon, and Saqib Saleem. The thriller is a prequel to the Russo Brothers’ Priyanka Chopra and Richard Madden-starrer Citadel. It began streaming on Amazon Prime Video last month and was trending as the number one show on the platform globally in its first week. Samantha’s performance received praise from critics and fans.
