BTS' J-Hope to appear in Twice's Sana's talk show. Clip of her asking to call him ‘Oppa' goes viral: Fans go feral
It's a good day to be a BTS and a Twice fan. BTS member J-Hope, aka Hobi, will be appearing in the 8th episode of Twice's Sana's talk show, 'Dex & Sana's Fridge Interview.' The much-anticipated episode will be released on YouTube on June 19th, as per X pop culture handle
About Music.
A video of a light-hearted interaction between Sana and Hobi is winning hearts on X. In the clip, the 'Cry For Me' singer is shown asking Hobi if she could call him 'Oppa' (an informal way women address men who are older than them in South Korea), to which the 'Chicken Noodle Soup' hitmaker is shown getting flustered before laughing out loud. In another clip, Hobi could be seen showing off his dance skills.

Earlier, reports suggested that BIGBANG's
G-Dragon
may also appear at the show as a guest.
The buzz intensified on May 30, when a teaser clip titled 'G-Dragon Came to Hang Out with Two Girls' was officially released. The preview showcased the globally recognized "Bang Bang Bang" singer sharing the screen with fellow entertainer Dex and TWICE member Sana.
In the teaser, Dex couldn't contain his excitement at having G-Dragon join them, even playfully referring to the music icon as 'Your Majesty'—a moment that sparked laughter from everyone on the set. Sana, too, appeared visibly thrilled to share space with the legendary idol, showing admiration for him in the brief segment.
What particularly grabbed attention was the fact that G-Dragon and Sana were seen together on-screen for the first time—an occurrence that quickly reignited ongoing speculation about their relationship. The duo had previously found themselves at the center of dating rumours just weeks earlier.
Origins of the Dating Speculation
The controversy began when G-Dragon attended Coldplay's concert in South Korea and captured a video featuring Sana on stage, as TWICE had been invited to perform as special guests for the event. The singer posted the video on his personal social media handle and even tagged Sana in the clip. This seemingly innocent action drew sharp criticism from the online community, with many users accusing the BIGBANG star of being too forward or suggestive.
In the wake of mounting backlash, G-Dragon removed the post from his stories in an effort to quiet the growing storm. Despite this attempt to defuse the situation, his gesture continued to spark heated debate across various online platforms. Many netizens speculated whether the interaction indicated something more than friendship between the two idols.

Cannes was pleasant for India this year
The Indian contingent wrapped up its Cannes Lions run with a flourish, as BBDO India picked up a Silver Lion in the Sustainable Development Goals sub-category for Ariel's 'Share The Load' campaign on the final day. The recognition, which falls under the larger 'Long-Term Brand Platforms' category, is for the agency's long-running campaign created for P&G, advocating for the equal sharing of household chores. "We are honoured and thrilled. What a journey it has been-10 years of belief, commitment, and brand action for meaningful change. This award is a testament to the power of acts, not ads, in creating a better world," said Josy Paul, chairman and CCO, BBDO India. The win brought India's overall medal count to 32, underscoring a year of creative impact on the world stage. FCB India's 'Lucky Yatra' campaign for Indian Railways turned out to be India's most awarded campaign, with 9 metals across categories, including a Grand Prix. Ogilvy India followed with seven metals across campaigns made for Titan, Mondelez Cadbury's 5-Star, Amazon and Vi. Live Events Conversation Shift Two years ago, the Cannes Lions stage was dominated by dialogue around artificial intelligence (AI) and cutting-edge tech. This year, there's a focus on the 'human' factor, marking a shift - either due to a better understanding of AI or a reflection of the fear it evokes, says Kawal Shoor, co-founder of independent agency The Womb. The agency also earned a rare shortlist spot in the Film Lions category for its 'We Broke the Jinx. We Won the World Cup' campaign created for Jim Jam Pops. Shoor noted duality at play. "One track continues to celebrate the 'idea'- both spectacular and dubious, but another narrative is emerging through impact-led conversations that question the effectiveness of the previous year's winning ideas," he adds. For Abhik Santara, founder of Atom network Cannes has always been a place of contradictions. "Remarks by industry heavyweights like David Droga, Cindy Gallop and others cast a critical eye on the direction of the creative industry, with a future increasingly shaped by platforms. On the other hand, there are some great wins by India which have happened on the back of strong cultural and creative interventions," he said. Incidentally, there was an 18% increase in the participation of independent agencies this year at the festival compared to the previous year (total submissions at 26,900).

BTS gears up for 2026 comeback as Suga completes military service
BTS rapper and songwriter Suga has officially completed his mandatory military service, marking the discharge of all seven members of the K-pop band from South Korea's conscription system, according to an Associated Press report. BTS' label, Big Hit Entertainment (which is now part of Hybe), confirmed that Suga completed his alternative service duties on Wednesday after using his pending leave days. His official discharge date was set for June 21, Saturday. The agency has not organised any public event for the occasion, citing concerns about overcrowding, the report added. File photo of BTS star Suga(AP) Suga, whose real name is Min Yoongi, served as a social service agent due to his past shoulder surgery, the Associated Press reported earlier. Also known as August D, he was the last of the group to complete his national duty. Unlike his bandmates, who served in the army, his alternative service involved civilian work. Suga's discharge from mandatory service has now opened the door for BTS to reunite as a group with plans for a full comeback in 2026. Also read: BTS to make their full group comeback in March 2026? Here's what we know Group leader RM discharged last week Last week, four of the seven-member band were discharged from the military. RM, aka Kim Namjoon and V, aka Kim Taehyung, were discharged on June 10, followed by Jimin and Jungkook a day later. All four began their military duties in December 2023. Jin, the eldest member, was the first to enlist in December 2022 and was discharged in June 2024. J-Hope, aka Jung Hoseok, completed his service in October 2024. South Korea's Military Service Act Under South Korea's mandatory conscription law, all able-bodied men aged 18 to 28 must serve 18 to 21 months in the military. While Olympic athletes and classical musicians were given exemptions, K-pop idols were not granted any despite their global influence, the AP report stated. However, in 2020, the South Korean government revised their Military Service Act, which allowed prominent entertainers like BTS to postpone their enlistment until age 30. This gave the group more time to continue their global success before serving. However, rumors over probable exemptions for BTS intensified public debate in 2022 with opinions divided. Ultimately, the band members and the agency announced in October 2022 that all seven members would be fulfilling their obligations without seeking exemptions. Now, with military service behind them, fans worldwide can look forward to BTS' long-anticipated reunion and the next chapter in their remarkable journey. FAQs 1. Has Suga been officially discharged from military service? Yes, Suga has completed his alternative military service. His official discharge date is Saturday, but he finished his duties earlier this week. 2. What kind of military service did Suga perform? Suga served as a social service agent, an alternative form of mandatory service due to medical reasons, unlike other members who served in the military. 3. When will BTS reunite as a full group? The group is expected to reunite sometime in 2026, now that all seven members have completed their service. 4. Who was the first BTS member to enlist? Jin was the first to enlist in December 2022, followed by J-Hope, RM, V, Jimin, Jung Kook, and finally Suga.
