Kim Sa Eun talks about husband Sungmin

Super Junior Sungmin's beautiful wife, talented musical actress Kim Sa Eun, recently appeared on KBS's Hello where she talked about her husband's pending enlistment this month for his mandatory military service.

She revealed, "It's been 79 days since our marriage," and Lee Young Ja brought up his enlistment on March 31. Kim Sa Eun said, "It's okay because I already knew all that, but I wonder what I would do all by myself."

Byun Jung Soo revealed that she had, prior to this moment, given Kim Sa Eun advice, such as go on vacation by herself or even take her in-laws with her so that Sungmin would be touched by her thoughtfulness during his enlistment.  Kim Sa Eun nodded along, which the other MCs noted and teased her for not seeming excited about this. She laughed and assured them it was nothing like that.

In addition, Lee Young Ja asked her, "Do you and Sungmin often do skinship?" to which Kim Sa Eun responded, "The two of us are already one body, so we're usually always stuck together."

Lee Young Ja continued, "Is he good at skinship?" Shin Dong Yup replied with a suggestive remark that made everyone laugh, "What can't idols do?"

Sharon Cuneta returns to Kapamilya

I just don’t belong anywhere else.

These were the exact words of Sharon Cuneta after she was welcomed back by ABS-CBN executives for her contract signing with the Kapamilya network. She left ABS-CBN more than three years ago when she transferred to the No. 3 network TV5. Last year, however, she shocked the entertainment business when she decided to end her lucrative contract with TV5 and return to what she considers her only home. “There are no words to describe how happy I am. It's overwhelmingly wonderful. Alam mo 'yung pagpasok mo pa lang, 'Hay nakauwi na rin.' Parang nagbakasyon lang. Pag-uwi, walang nagbago sa pagtingin ng mga kapamilya mo,” she said.

According to Sharon, she was like a “fish out of water” when she left ABS-CBN. “I can’t say I regret [transferring to TV5] 100% percent because I made friends naman with the other station. Pero parang fish na out of water, tapos pagpasok ko dito, I'm breathing again normally. I really feel na I really don’t belong anywhere else but here,” she said.

The veteran actress admitted it was very touching that the ABS-CBN bosses, with whom she had several secret meetings after decided to leave TV5, did not even ask a single question when she expressed her desire to come back. “We never naman lost touch but not once did we ever talk about work. Pero si Tita Charo (Santos-Concio, ABS-CBN president and CEO) was one of the first to know na wala na ako sa nilipatan kong station. It was out of respect because she’s like my mother and sister combined. Parang months later, may secret meetings na kami. It was so touching kasi I was very humbled by my experiences in the last three years. To be welcomed home with open arms, to be welcomed home with open hearts, walang nagbago. Parang nandito lang ako last week. There is really no place like home."

Admitting she also thought of just quitting showbiz, Sharon said it was her fans who motivated her to make a comeback. “Yung maramdaman mo na -- kasi nga I went through a very humbling experience -- 'yung parang dapat siguro hindi na maniniwala sa 'yo, biglang malalaman mo naghihintay lang pala? How would you feel? Make that times one million, that’s how I feel. There are no words that exist to describe my feeling. Wala rin namang susuporta sa 'yo kung walang magsasabi na ‘Please come back’ or ‘We miss you.’ Malaki ang effect sa akin nun,” she said.

“Ang alam ko there are some projects in the works. They are taking their time because they want those to be really perfect. For now, I'm just really happy to be here and to be doing this show. I see myself doing a teleserye here. But at this point, I am in the best hands I’ve ever been. I'm in the hands of people who care for me and love me. To be in the hands of people that you have worked with before, and you are sure that they love you, I’m just happy,” she said.

Now that she and her daughter, actress KC Concepcion, are finally in the same network, Cuneta said she would also love to act with her, as well as her former husband, Gabby Concepcion. “I’m open to anything -- me and KC, me and other leading men, former leading men, exes, ex-husband. Gusto ko lang ipaalam sa inyo na kapag wala kaming naging project [ni Gabby], siya ang may ayaw. At this point, I’m very very open to it,” she said.

Sunny admits to dating

The three ladies of Roommate, Sunny, Nana, and Lee Kuk Ju, engaged in juicy girl talk once again.

The first question thrown was, "Have you ever dated a celebrity?" to which Sunny coolly replied, "Yes, I have. There was no more or less discomfort dating a celebrity. We just met as people."

Asked how they dated when they were so busy, Sunny continued, "Seeing as how we were both so busy, it became a 'messenger love,' 'messenger dating,'" suggesting they could only chat and rarely meet up in person. She said, "It was hard for it to develop into sincere love. I never got past one year."

She revealed that once she even saw a very well-known male celebrity on a secret date!

While they were discussing secretive dating by celebrities, Sunny brought up her witness experience at the movie theater, stating, "A famous male celebrity went there with a woman, and they purposely arrived right before the movie started. However, as they came in the dark, the light from the movie screen actually hit them right on, revealing them. The woman following behind him really bent her head down, showing only the crown of her head as if she was a person who sinned."

Fans commented, "This is not surprising. Sunny is pretty and cute and talented and funny. Any guy would want to date her if given the chance", "I dont get whats so wrong with dating", "I hope she can find someone to spend more time with", "Dispatch missed the time", etc.

Why Manila is close to Johnny Depp's heart

During an interview for his upcoming comedy-action film Mortdecai, Hollywood actor Johnny Depp revealed he has spent some time in Manila almost 30 years ago when they were shooting for the film Platoon in 1986.

"I was there for about three-and-a-half months and lived in the jungle for two weeks, which is far less enticing than Manila. We'd coast down to Manila every weekend or every chance we got," he said. He described the experience like being in a Hemingway book. "Oh, Manila was beautiful, I love Manila. That was a great, great time. It felt like you were in a Hemingway book."

On other news, Depp is joined by Gwyneth Paltrow, Ewan Macgregor and Paul Bettany in the new movie. "This is the best time I've ever had on any film ever," Depp said, who is also the movie's producer.

Jung Eun Woo talks about Park Han Byul

Actor Jung Eun Woo appeared on Taxi and was naturally asked about his recently revealed girlfriend, Park Han Byul.

He stated that they had no time to develop feelings during their drama, but after it finished, the drama cast and staff hung out together by going scuba diving and started becoming close. When asked when he started liking her, Jung Eun Woo surprised people by saying, "This could seem perverted," but when he actually went into the story, it was very cute.

He explained that it was when he saw her wearing her scuba gear. But rather than the form-fitting scuba gear itself, he was attracted to her determination, for despite the oxygen tank being very heavy for a woman to carry, she insisted that she was going to try and do it herself without help. He also revealed that in the last diving day in the winter, they found themselves alone after spending a day with all their acquaintances from the drama. This was when he confessed his feelings and asked her out. As she just smiled, he took her hand and she held his back, which he took as a yes.

As for their first skinship, the actor confessed he kissed her for the first time (outside of the drama) during a trip at the ski resort. In relation to the paparazzi pictures taken of the two, Jung Eun Woo coolly said, "We said to each other through the phone, 'They should've at least taken pretty ones.' We then laughed it off."
