Actor Jung Hae In did not know what to do with BLACKPINK's Jisoo's compliments.

On December 15th, JTBC's 'Snowdrop' released an interview video featuring Jung Hae In and Jisoo.

On this day, Jung Hae In and Jisoo continued the interview using a lottery machine containing questions about the drama and each other.

Then the question "How was your first meeting with each other?" came up.

Jisoo surprised Jung Hae In by saying, "When I saw him for the first time, I felt like I was seeing a celebrity"

Jung Hae In, with wide-eyed eyes, said, "What do you mean?" He looked at the distant mountain and smiled.

Jisoo explained, "After it was confirmed that we'll be filming together. I looked up the works you starred in. So when I saw you for the first time And he was wearing a hat, he really seemed like a celebrity."

Hearing the reason, Jung Hae In looked shyly at the camera and smiled brightly.

Jisoo said, "And he was so nice and took care of me so well. So I was very nervous because I was filming for the first time but I got to be more relaxed."

Jung Hae In said, "Thank you," and the two smiled broadly and looked into each other's eyes, causing excitement.

Meanwhile, 'Snowdrop' is the desperate love story set in Seoul in 1987 of SuHo, a student from a prestigious university who suddenly appeared covered with blood in the women's dormitory, and YoungCho, a university student who hid and treated him in this crisis.

While Jung Hae In and Jisoo are looking forward to their chemistry, the first broadcast will be held at 10:30 pm on December 18th (today).

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.
