• LE SSERAFIM Kazuha seems to undergo drastic visual change since "FEARLESS" and we're jealous!

    Girl group LE SSERAFIM is making its first comeback since changing from a five-member group to a four-member group. The group is doing well on both domestic and international charts. From the music video to how each member works together, one topic after another is being added.

    LE SSERAFIM put out a new song called "ANTIFRAGILE" on October 17th and started doing full-time work. Even though they just started his career this year, they did their solo comeback show well and became the new dark horse of the fourth generation.

    Unlike LE SSERAFIM's previously announced debut song "FEARLESS," which took some time after its first release to become a hot topic, the album with this new song "ANTIFRAGILE" sold more than 400,000 copies in Initial Chodong alone, which was a career-high. It also went to the top of major music charts like Melon, Genie, Bugs, and Flo and got a lot of attention right away.


    The most interesting thing about this group is how their weights change over time. Especially interesting is the fact that the number of Japanese members in Kazuha of LE SSERAFIM has grown a lot.

    Kazuha used mostly low and mid-range tones in the rap part of his first song, "FEARLESS." But in "ANTIFRAGILE," he sang "Don't forget the toe shoes I left behind," which could be called a "killing point." In verse 2, he sang the chorus himself, which was a big difference from his first song.

    As a Japanese member, Kazuha hasn't been very good at speaking Korean in the past. Still, as one of the most visible members of LE SSERAFIM, she got a lot of attention and did a lot to get the team's name out there. Also, LE SSERAFIM's own content got a lot of attention because it had an unusual sense of humor.

    As Kazuha's actions and outside factors changed the number of members, the proportion grew by itself. In particular, she is becoming known as a member who doesn't miss opportunities to promote the song on web entertainment shows. She is also becoming the next-generation center of LE SSERAFIM.

    But so far, most of their interest in LE SSERAFIM has come from things other than her main job, like the fact that she is a Japanese member and that she used to be a ballet major. Kazuha's art homework is to show more of her skill as an artist.

    It's a good chance to slowly win over the public and show off the charm of each member of LE SSERAFIM, as well as the good reviews for their new song. In this new year, people want to know if Kazuha can become a place where people in Reseraphim can trust him.

  • NewJeans Minji writes touching letter on her birthday during activity halt: “We didn’t stop and we won’t stop”

    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.
