Actress and singer Suzy will go on stage after a long time.

The Hankook Ilbo said on May 17th, "Suzy is recording KBS2's 'Yoo Hee-yeol's Sketchbook'. The airing date is undecided.”

It is the first time that Suzy will appear on stage as a singer whose main job is to perform since the untact fanart 'SUZY: A Tempo' on January 23, last year, to commemorate the 10th anniversary of her debut.

Suzy released her single 'Satellite' in February, but did not perform it on stage. Meanwhile, she expects Suzy to meet her fans through her acting in addition to her singing career.

Currently, Suzy is filming Coupang Play's 'Anna' and 'Iduna!'. 'Anna' tells the story of Yumi, a woman who lives a completely different life through a trivial lie.

‘Lee Doona!’ is the work of artist Min Song-ah, which has been serialized on Naver since July 2019. It is a work depicting the story of Idu, who suddenly retired from idol activities, and Lee Won-jun, a freshman in her first year of college, living together in a share house.

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.
