• Korean netizens were shocked to see Kang Hye Won's career doing well despite IZ*ONE's disbandment

    Kang Hye Won has become a hot topic because of the comments she received on her career throughout the years.

    On October 13, a critical post about Kang Hye Won began trending on enter-talk‘ community board under the title, “KANG HYEWON IS PERFORMING BETTER THAN I EXPECTED AFTER DIBANDMENT?“.

    The netizen who posted said, “I was curious about what she was doing after the group broke up, and she's doing pretty well here and there. She has many different promotions, and these are all her CFs…“.

    Makeup ad (Manyo)
    App ad (Soda)
    Clothing ad (General Idea) 
    Game ad (Mabinogi)
    Aside from it, she also appeared in dramas (Seasons of Blossom)
    Park Jaejung, Ravi, etc. She appeared in their MVs as the main

    The netizen then listed all the comments as the following:

    She's bad at acting and doesn't show any sign of wanting to work hard.

    You can't bury her because she has a pretty face.

    I thought it would be better for her not to be an idol. I'm not against her, but she wasn't very good as an idol. But it seems like she's on the right track…

    She couldn't die of hunger after making her debut under Izone and having that face. Her character is unusual and surprising, so if she goes on variety shows, she can also hit daebak.

    No, I have a different bias, but when I watched Seasons of Blossom, Kang Hyewon was so f*cking pretty that I took a screenshot… Really, you guys need to keep an eye on her. She fits Yoon Bomi's sole like a glove, and even though she started out as an idol, her acting is pretty good, so I became a fan.

  • Jannabi's Choi Jung Hoon writes heartfelt letter to aespa's Karina after 4-hour recording session for their collab

    Jannabi recently shared behind-the-scenes stories about their new music, including their collaboration with aespa’s Karina.

    On May 13, the band appeared as guests on the SBS Power FM 'Escape from Two O'Clock Cultwo Show' where Choi Jung Hoon and Kim Do Hyung opened up about their latest work.

    Jannabi released their highly anticipated fourth full album Sound of Music pt.1 on April 28, and the title track "In the Name of Love!" featuring Karina quickly captured attention.

    Choi Jung Hoon explained that the inspiration for the song came from his love for anime, particularly Sailor Moon.

    He shared a humorous story, saying, "I came up with the title first, and in Sailor Moon, there's a line that says, 'In the name of justice, I won't forgive you.' But I mistakenly thought it said, 'In the name of love,'" which made everyone laugh during the interview.

    When asked about his personal connection with Karina, Choi Jung Hoon revealed, “The song had a bright, mysterious feeling, and I wanted to make sure listeners felt the same emotion we had while making it.”

    He also shared that he felt Karina was the perfect fit for the song, saying, "There’s a word ‘truth’ in the lyrics, and I thought if I sang it, it might sound too heavy. I wanted someone to bring brightness to it, and Karina immediately came to mind."

    Choi Jung Hoon further explained, "The moment she sang that part in the recording studio, I knew the song was complete. I was so moved, I wrote her a letter."

    Kim Do Hyung also spoke about the recording process, sharing, "It took about 3-4 hours, but Karina didn’t get tired at all. Her passion really impressed us."

    Their collaboration is already making waves, and fans are excited to see what Jannabi and Karina bring next!
