Wu Chun admits he has two "children"

Wu Chun
Fans, don’t be mistaken. The Bruneian heartthrob was referring to his businesses

Actor Wu Chun made his first appearance in Taiwan a few days ago, ever since rumours of him being married with a daughter circulated.

The actor seemed well-prepared when facing the media and later stunned many when he boldly admitted, "Yes, it's true. I already have two children."

After surprising both his fans and the media, Wu Chun explained, "I was talking about my two gyms!"

The actor runs a fitness business back in Brunei, his hometown.

Wu Chun also let on that he has commissioned a lawyer to take legal action against the magazine which defamed him.

The actor confessed that rumour about his marriage had been circulating for the past few years, and he did not wish to clarify on it anymore.

"I don't feel anything when I read the reports. I don't even want to explain anymore because even if I do, people are still going to write about it," he said.

When asked if he would publicly announce his wedding, the actor looked troubled, saying that "it's hard to say". The decision would depend on the timing of the event and the willingness of his partner.

However, Wu Chun added that it was difficult to have a relationship after having a career in showbiz because he does not have time to accompany his partner.

The actor clarified that he is currently single. When reporters probed Wu Chun on how he was able to remain single, he wittily replied, "You don't have to know!"

Park Shin-Hye in hospital due to car accident


Park Shin Hye
The Korean actress is currently resting in the hospital and will return to film for her new drama soon.

Park Shin-Hye, a Korean actress who rose to fame with her role in He's Beautiful last year, was involved in a car accident on July 18.

Shin-Hye, together with her stylist and a few others were onboard her manager's 7-seater car when the accident happened at around 11.30pm.

The accident caused the front half of the car to be severely damaged, but all five passengers were lucky to only suffer from minor injuries.

According to the preliminary investigation by the Korean police, the accident could be due to the driver overlooking the dividing stripe at the road junction, one which separates their lane and that of oncoming traffic, resulting in him driving the car into the guard rail along the roadside.

However, further investigation is required to determine the actual cause of the accident.
Shin-Hye's managing company has confirmed the news, and assured the actress' fans that she is currently resting in the hospital, and will soon return to shoot for her new drama series.
