From the 2nd to the 8th of this month, TenAsia conducted a poll asking, 'Which male singer would you like to go on a ski trip with before the snow melts?' Hyunjae from The Boyz emerged as the winner. Last November, he, along with fellow members Sunwoo and Juyeon, participated in a special unit activity. The trio released a digital single titled 'Tiger' and showcased their performance on various music shows including KBS 2TV's 'Music Bank', MBC's 'Show! Music Core', and SBS's 'Inkigayo'. The special unit song 'Tiger' is known for its addictive blend of the members' unique voices and a drum and bass beat, featuring sharp and solid vocal lines and seamless rapping that enhance the song's immersive quality.
In second place was The Boyz's Juyeon. The Boyz made a significant impact at the end of 2025 by performing at the '2025 MBC Gayo Daejejeon' on December 31st. Their performance of 'You and I' from their 10th mini-album 'a;effect' was praised for its sensory appeal, combining traditional-themed costumes with a fusion of Korean traditional music sounds, elevating the stage's overall quality.
Park Jihoon secured the third spot. His historical film 'The Man Who Lives with the King', where he plays the role of Danjong, topped the box office for five consecutive days and claimed the number one spot during its opening weekend. The film surpassed 1 million viewers within five days of release, continuing its successful run. According to the Korean Film Council's integrated computer network, the film recorded 761,831 viewers from the 6th to the 8th, securing the top spot at the box office for its opening weekend. Park Jihoon's 'eye acting', a noted strength of his, was highlighted as a standout feature in this film.
