• Hani on what EXID members are to her, "For me, they are like my husbands", here's why

    Hani confessed her love for EXID members.

    The group EXID, who released the album 'X' commemorating the 10th anniversary of her debut, appeared as a guest on MBC FM4U's 'Noon's Hope Song, Kim Shin-young' (hereinafter 'Jung-hee'), which was broadcast on October 14th.

    EXID made a comeback as a group after 3 years to celebrate the 10th anniversary of their debut. The most striking thing in their title song 'Fire' is Jeonghwa's transformation.

    When Kim Shin Young said that it wasn't the original FM style, Jeonghwa trembled softly, saying, "My life has changed a lot. During my three-year hiatus, I tried to release myself a lot."

    When LE asked Jeonghwa if she had ordered it separately, she said, "I told him to call me as if he drank a lot of alcohol, and not to make his pronunciation sound accurate."

    Then, Jeonghwa said, "I think I worried a lot," and "I'm good, but they keep saying that they will re-record. It's a little annoying," and made her laugh by revealing her inner feelings.

    Jeonghwa revealed, "So, during the first recording, my sister directed me. When I went the second time, she wasn't there. It's annoying." LE explained that it was because she could clean up well enough without her.

    The challenge was also mentioned. Although it has been 10 years since their debut, the challenge is their first challenge. They said that there was no such thing as a challenge when they were promoting, and they also said, "We appeared on a fancam, right? The broadcasting station filmed a fancam."

    Afterward, in the speed question, LE chose 'Fire' as the song he loved the most. Then, about the strong concept of 'Fire', the staff who had worked with her for a long time also looked at the monitor while filming the music video and said, 'It's three years old.'

    When Kim Shin Young praised LE, Jeong Hwa said, "It was the first time I felt it while promoting, but there are a lot of performances on YouTube. I saw her filmed and made me think that our team treasure is like her sister. She fell in love with being an artist as well as performing on stage as well as making songs. I wondered what our team would be like without this unnie.”

    To the question “What is EXID to me,Hani answered, “Family.” She said, “Among my family, I’m not married yet, but I feel they're my husbands. Solji is a warm husband, Jeonghwa is a good listener, Hyerin is a husband who gives good energy to many experiences, and LE is a funny and sensible husband. It was a relationship,” she said.

    In addition, Solji is a member who is likely to get an F grade if she takes a class, Hyerin and Hani are actors who want to work with Hani, and Jeonghwa is an older sister who takes good care of her. It attracted attention by mentioning Solji.

  • Singer Kim Junsu Victim of 800 Million Won Blackmail Scheme—BJ Appeals 7-Year Prison Sentence

    A woman, identified only as A, who extorted a whopping 800 million won from singer and musical actor Kim Junsu, has now appealed her seven-year prison sentence for blackmail.

    According to Newsis, A, a woman in her 30s, was sentenced on charges of blackmail under the Specific Economic Crimes Aggravated Punishment Act. She was given the harsh sentence by the Uijeongbu District Court, but on February 7th, she appealed the ruling.

    On February 6th, the court sentenced A to seven years behind bars, with the judge calling the crime "severe" and acknowledging the significant "economic and emotional damage" suffered by the victim. "The victim has petitioned for a harsh punishment," the court added.

    The court also revealed that A had used recordings of private conversations and photos to extort money from Kim Junsoo when their relationship began to fall apart. “The defendant admitted to everything, and all related evidence was found guilty,” the court said.

    Between September 2020 and October of the previous year, A blackmailed Kim Junsu 101 times, demanding money and goods under the threat of leaking intimate recordings and photos.

    Kim Junsu, who filed a complaint, explained that he had met A under the belief she was a nail artist, and he had been extorted for five years. His agency, Palm Tree Island, stressed that the star was targeted because of his celebrity status.

    "Kim Junsu is clearly the victim," the agency said, adding, "After discovering multiple victims of A's blackmail, he decided to take legal action to prevent further harm."
