Time for our daily dose of K-enter news with Walter Lee.

Starting off with news on the exciting girl group LE SSERAFIM.

The "fearless" girl group LE SSERAFIM have made it to number nine on the Billboard 200 chart with their 5th mini-album "HOT." That's according to the latest Billboard rankings on the main album chart. The album "HOT" also topped the Top Album Sales, Top Current Album Sales, and World Albums charts.

Meanwhile, the title track "HOT" ranked No. 9 on the "Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart", which lists the top 25 songs that have not yet entered the main Hot 100 chart.

The title track "HOT" also ranked No. 21 on the "Global (Excl. U.S.) chart" and No. 45 on the "Global 200 chart". And it claimed No. 1 on the "World Digital Song Sales chart."

LE SSERAFIM also secured the No. 8 spot on the Artist 100 chart, which comprehensively evaluates the activities of musicians worldwide. They achieved the highest ranking among K-pop artists.

If this impresses you then get ready as the group is set to embark on their first world tour, "EASY CRAZY HOT", starting in Incheon on April 19 and April 20.

Now, moving over to news on Kim Soo-hyun, are there any updates regarding the ongoing scandal involving the actor and the late actress Kim Sae-ron.

Actor Kim Soo-hyun , who has been accused of dating the late actress Kim Sae-ron while she was underage, will not be attending his scheduled fan meeting in Taiwan.

The event organiser, 7-Eleven Taiwan, stated through its official social media that the fan meeting of Kim Soo-hyun at the "Kaohsiung Cherry Blossom Festival" on the 30th has been canceled. A total of 200 participants had been selected through a lottery system to attend the fan meeting.

This event attracted significant attention as it would have been Kim Soo-hyun’s first public appearance since the allegations about his relationship with Kim Sae-ron surfaced. However, due to the controversy surrounding his personal life, all scheduled events have been canceled or postponed.

Last but not least, ending off with some K-movie news?

The main trailer for the occult action film "The Holy Night: Demon Hunters", starring Ma Dong-seok, has been released.

"The Holy Night: Demon Hunters" follows the story of a city plunged into chaos by a cult that worships evil. A trio of demon hunters, known as The Holy Night, consisting of leader Bau , Sharon, played by Girls' Generation member Seohyun , and Kim Goon , take on missions to eliminate the forces of darkness.

From the tone of the trailer it does feel like a typical Ma Dong-seok movie where he is this super strong character who can take on anyone, but this time it's not criminals it's the supernatural.

"The Holy Night: Demon Hunters" is set to premiere on April 30.

Thanks for the news Walter, stick around.
