SEVENTEEN made a partnership with the health platform ' Cigna ' to help people achieve their dreams.

SEVENTEEN becomes a personal training coach that aids individuals to achieve their health goals.  SEVENTEEN announced on the 6th that will actively participate in the healthcare platform of Cigna, the parent company of Linea Life Insurance. Cigna plans to introduce differentiated content related to healthcare services through collaboration with SEVENTEEN and plans to create new practices in the healthcare field with the help of collaborations that have never happened before.

Cigna prioritizes providing user-centered practical health care services, and leave from the existing health care services centered on marketing and providers. To begin, 'TUNE H', a healthcare platform, will be introduced around October. Tune H is a 'personal wellness coach' service that aids individuals in understanding their health status and help them slowly achieve their goals.  It is expected that it will greatly contribute to form a healthy lifestyle especially for today's generation who are familiar with gadgets.

Cigna provides several contents in Tune H together with SEVENTEEN. Some of the contents are information and health programs that are essential for health care management such as nutrition, sleep, and mental care as well as exercise management.  This will also help motivate users to achieve their goals without stopping for 3 days.

Cho Ji Eun, the president of Linea Life Insurance issued a statement that Healthcare is increasing in importance in all areas of life, and Cigna continues to make changes and investments in Korea’s new healthcare environment and they will continue to provide health care services that break the mold in new forms and in a various way

NewJeans' Minji touched fans' hearts with a handwritten letter on her birthday — even while the group is currently unable to promote due to legal issues.

On May 7, Minji celebrated her birthday by sharing a heartfelt message on the group’s personal SNS account, which the members opened themselves to stay connected with fans.

Minji began her letter with honesty, writing, “I think I’m living a busier life than I expected. When I finally looked up, it was already May, and it was my birthday.”

She admitted that she had a lot she wanted to say, but her thoughts felt “messy.” Still, her message to fans was clear, “I just hope that I, our members, and Bunnies can all be happy. Happiness is the biggest goal in my life.”

Minji then opened up about her personal journey and struggles, saying, “I sometimes think that running toward my happiness by doing what I love might look foolish to others. But isn’t giving up your happiness now for the sake of a future that might not even come… too harsh on yourself?”

Despite everything, she ended on a hopeful note, “I really miss the times when we shared our feelings through the good music we made together. But I always look forward to what’s ahead."

She added, "We didn’t stop here, and we’re not going to stop! It might look like we’re standing still, but I believe we’re growing deeper.”

Her message comes during a difficult time for NewJeans. The group announced last year that they were cutting ties with ADOR, their original agency, after trust was broken. They later began working independently under the new name ‘NJZ’.

However, ADOR responded with legal action — claiming the exclusive contract with NewJeans was still valid and asking the court to stop the group from promoting or signing deals.

The court sided with ADOR and granted an injunction, forcing NewJeans to pause their activities. Their appeal was rejected, and they’ve now filed a second appeal.

Through it all, Minji’s message proves one thing — even when forced to stop, NewJeans' hearts are still moving forward.
