Seohyun of Girls' Generation revealed the story that she was not happy even after her debut was confirmed, raising questions.

In the 188th episode of MBC's "Omniscient Point of View", which aired on February 19th, Girls' Generation's Seohyun appeared and revealed her daily life of enjoying a good rest, such as driving with her close singer Lee Hwan Hee and going to a café.

After a busy schedule such as a pictorial shoot, Seohyun drove a white sports car to meet Lee Hwan Hee, a 20-year-old friend and former SM Entertainment trainee.

MC Lee Young Ja, who asked about Lee Hwan Hee's recent situation, said, "I am currently married".

Seohyun showed off her extraordinary friendship by introducing Lee Hwan Hee as a "friend who knows everything about her".

Seohyun and Lee Hwan Hee, who went on a drive together to Namyangju, held hands and shed tears, expressing their gratitude and sorry for not taking good care of each other because they were busy.

MC Song Eun I, who watched this, said, "You take on the same path of debut and depended on each other, but Hwan Hee wasn't able to debut as part of Girls' Generation?"

Seohyun expressed her sad feelings that she could not contact Lee Hwan Hee for several days when she was unable to debut as Girls' Generation.

Seohyun recalled that she had no joy when she heard that Lee Hwan Hee was eliminated even though her idol debut was confirmed.

Seohyun also shed tears, recalling the difficult times.

While he was sorry that her debut was confirmed, she revealed that she received a congratulatory message from Lee Hwan Hee first, confessing that Lee Hwan Hee was an indispensable friend.

Meanwhile, Lee Hwan Hee has been active in various fields, including models, since her debut in the music industry with her single album Secret in 2012.

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.
