At the tteokbokki shop that actor Kim Seon Ho went to, an unexpected spark was thrown. The owner of a tteokbokki shop in Jeju Island recently complained about the damage through his official SNS.

Person A said, "It's been quite some time since the director, filming team, and actors of 'Sad Tropical' came and went. Some fans cheered for me by re-posting my post, but text messages requesting personal information are still ringing at dawn.”

“Kim Seon Ho came here for the first time with the director on Christmas day,” he recalled.

“When I was serving and explaining the food, it seems that he noticed that only the director and actor Kim had my eyes on me.", he continued.

"Actor Kim Seon Ho put his hand on actor Kang Tae Joo's shoulder and said, 'You are the main character of our movie. Please take care of me,'", he added

“Some people often appeal to themselves, but this person is different, and he is a very warm person (I felt). That’s how the fan’s first-day car started.”, he explained.

“When another diner asked if I could take a picture, I said, ‘I’m really sorry ' ", he said.

At the same time, Mr. A asserted that he had never disclosed anything related to Kim Seon Ho."Somehow, the demands of people with different personalities from me started. There are many more episodes like reporters who ask for personal information and get angry, but I won't write them down. On days that come a lot, it is difficult to do business.”, he said,

Finally, Mr. A said, "I will not take any questions because I have no more information. Please stop DMs and comments related to one actor. I was attacked by people with different thoughts and actions that I told myself to protect the actors. A person who makes a living for a single business raising children. Please stop attacking me and stop being sarcastic. Please stop spreading facts that do not exist.”

Meanwhile, Kim Seon Ho chose the movie 'Sad Tropical' as his comeback after the controversy over his personal life. 'Sad Tropical' is an action noir that tells the story of a boy who used to be a boxer who becomes the target of mysterious people and is pursued. He works with actors Go Ara, Kang Tae Joo, and Kim Kang Woo.

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.
