K-drama Backlash Watch: IU and Byeon Woo-seok’s Disney+ hit “Perfect Crown” is still topping global charts, but the royal-modern setting is drawing fresh heat over historical accuracy—fans are now dissecting what the show gets right and what it bends. World Cup Buzz: With FIFA’s final 26-man squads due June 1 and announced June 2, attention is already on matchday ticket reality; one of the clearest remaining paths is last-minute FIFA sales for high-demand games like Panama vs England at MetLife. Tech x Fashion: Google is pushing into smart eyewear again with AI “audio glasses” co-developed with Warby Parker and Gentle Monster, powered by Gemini and slated to ship this autumn. Art & Culture: Seoul’s Centre Pompidou Hanwha opens June 4, while Cannes continues to spotlight Korea’s monster-movie momentum with Na Hong-jin’s “Hope” (and talk of a sequel already in motion). Environment: A new customs-data analysis flags a massive live-bird trade into Asia, with canaries among the most shipped—raising disease and biodiversity alarms.
