A top star from Taiwan and Greater China copied BLACKPINK's Lisa and became a hot topic.

Taiwanese singer Show Lo released the cover image of the new album released on October 25th. 

She is sitting on her bike dressed in a woman's outfit and is smiling at her camera, wearing her blonde ponytail hair, hot pants and a brand A top.

This teaser image, which Show Lo released ahead of the release of her single on October 27th, is being criticized for being a copy of Blackpink Lisa. 

In fact, Show Lo's styling is similar to that of her Lisa's 'Money' music video. It's the same, with her ponytail hair, A's, red hot pants, and boots decorated with fur.

Show Lo has been a topic of discussion in the past as a 'buccaneer' who has disguised herself as a woman once. 

In 2016, Show Lo showed off her daughter-in-law's name as Ju Byeok Seok (Jubis), and this new album is an album in which Show Lo makes a comeback with the concept of Ju Byeok Seok.

Local netizens reacted to the concept of Na-sang's new album, "I don't know if I should call this plagiarism," "It's funny, but it's scary," and "It's a very obvious parody."

On the other hand, singer-actress Show Lo was found to be having an affair with her long-time lover in 2020, and was criticized by the public and took a break from her activities.

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.
