Netizens couldn’t hide their shock on March 16 (KST) when an American actor shared a photo with the most unlikely combination of stars.
In the past, the world of K-Dramas and K-Pop might not have given fans a lot of interaction, but the past year has proved otherwise. Back in 2022, BLACKPINK‘s Lisa and actor Park Bo Gum came together as they attended CELINE‘s Paris Fashion Show, along with BTS‘s V.

Earlier in the month, BLACKPINK’s Jennie had interactions with actor Park Seo Joon at a Chanel event.

Well, it seems like the unusual and surprising combinations of stars continue.
After almost a year, BLACKPINK’s Lisa finally reunited with Park Bo Gum, who recently joined YG’s subsidiary label THE BLACK LABEL. Yet, along with fellow member Lisa, netizens were shocked to see the odd combination, including BIGBANG‘s Taeyang… and American actor Woody Harrelson and Dean Phillips, the U.S. House representative from Minnesota.

While it was only the picture circulating, the caption from the American explained that he was in Seoul a few days ago, and they all met up. Many assumed that YG producer Teddy was also there and took the photo.
Of course, when the photo was first released, netizens couldn’t get over the shocking combination of talent. It was a unique mix from two BLACKPINK members, a BIGBANG artist, a Korean actor, an American actor, and a politician.
uhm JENNIE and LISA w/ PARK BOGUM uhm what’s going on?! and this is just recent bc J’s band-aid still there. 🤧🫠#JENLISA #BLACKPINK pic.twitter.com/HbeK0bYLF9
Others explained that, while they initially couldn’t recognize Taeyang (as he had no makeup on), the photo made a lot of sense. The Korean stars in the photo are all linked to YG Entertainment, whether the company itself or the sublabel THE BLACK LABEL.
They are not actually a random team (except Woody and Dean Philipss) Taeyang and Bogum signed with The Black Label company. So they were in their company. We know that girls also go to TBL very often. Probably two men must have come to visit!🫠 pic.twitter.com/b0RIP9XG4n
Many also pointed out that the hat Lisa wore at the airport when returning to Korea was the same as the actor, prompting many to think he gifted it to the singer.

It wasn’t surprising that once the photo as posted, rumors started flying. Were the members of BLACKPINK set to pursue an acting role? Was Park Bo Gum recording something? Is Taeyang doing something with his fellow label mates? The possibilities are endless.
