Actor and singer Lee Jun-young temporarily stepped away from the spotlight Tuesday as he began his mandatory military service. Lee, 29, entered an Army training center on Tuesday. His arrival was kept private, with no official farewell event, according to his agency, Billions. After completing basic training, he will serve as an active-duty soldier. Before leaving, Lee gave fans a glimpse of his military buzz cut, posting photos of himself shaving his own head on social media.

IU fights false online claims in US court

Korean singer and actor IU has asked a U.S. federal court to authorize the release of identifying information from Meta in a move seen as an intention to take strong action against malicious posts and the spread of false information online. IU's agency, EDAM Entertainment, said Monday that it filed a discovery application on Wednesday in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California to identify a person behind a Threads account. The agency said it needs the information for an ongoing defamation lawsuit in Korea. The agency directly targeted an unidentified Threads user, alleging the person published 52 posts between March and October last year containing false claims. The posts included plagiarism allegations and other claims the agency described as false. According to the application, the posts made false assertions related to China, misrepresented IU's overseas achievements and included allegations that she manipulated public opinion and exploited a deceased person for publicity, as well as content linking national disasters to song lyrics.

Yasuda has produced for K-pop acts including STAYC, Yuju and Le Sserafim. He co-wrote and produced Giselle's solo songs "Dopamine" and "Tornado."
