Animal trainer Kang Hyung Wook said that he even ate poop to understand the heart of a dog.

In tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block', which aired on May 4, as a special feature of 'Hero', Kang Hyung Wook appeared as a guest.

On this day, Kang Hyung Wook said, "I've been volunteering for abandoned dogs since I was little, and dog trainers were popular. I started training in earnest when I was in the 3rd year of middle school."

In particular, he surprised everyone by mentioning that he even ate dog poop for dog study.

When Yoo Jae Seok said, "(Trainer) didn't say that you used to come out and eat shit too,"

Kang Hyung Wook said, "That was when I was very young.."

Then, he said, "I saw 'Heo Jun' the wrong way."

Previously, Kang Hyung Wook appeared on JTBC's 'Knowing Bros' and shared an episode of eating dog poop, saying, "I saw a health check with servings in 'Heo Jun'. It has been surprising

On this day, Kang Hyung Wook ok also talked about good ways to get to know dogs.

Kang Hyung Wook said, "The best way to get to know someone is to be nice and to sleep nearby rather than to touch them and give them snacks." “Come here, come here,” he said.

When Kang Hyung Wook told the story and reenacted the situation at the time, Yoo Jae Seok and Jo Se Ho mimicked Kang Hyung Wook's appearance, causing laughter.

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.
