Fans of ASTRO's Cha Eun Woo love him for his amazing music skills, acting skills, and amazing personality. He is a well-known celebrity, and even other well-known celebrities are fans of him.

But Cha Eun Woo showed his true fanboy side in recent videos on his new YouTube channel when he got to meet and work with one of his favourite musicians, Norwegian singer Peder Elias.

Fans knew that the two singers would work together because Peder Elias revealed Cha Eun Woo's real personality on Instagram.

This showed that Cha Eun Woo was indeed a successful fanboy because he had been talking about how much he liked Peder Elias for so long.

But fans weren't ready for how angelic their song "Bonfire" would sound when they worked together. And they definitely weren't expecting to see Cha Eun Woo's own cute fanboying.

Even though Cha Eun Woo is a well-known idol, he didn't want to tell Peder Elias that he had sent him a DM six to eight months ago.

Even though Cha Eun Woo didn't hear back, he "kept waiting" until he heard that Peder Elias would be performing in South Korea.

One of Cha Eun Woo's employees ran into one of Peder Elias's and told them the story. This is how they were finally able to work together.

Even before Cha Eun Woo met Peder Elias, he "felt shy" and practiced how to introduce himself. And, like any fan would, he was excited to hear the singer's voice close by.

They got along right away, and Cha Eun Woo even made a joke about Peder Elias not responding to his DM. Which Peder Elias quickly explained was because he hadn't seen the message.

Cha Eun Woo talked about how excited he was about Peder Elias's new music. And because Cha Eun Woo had a shoot during Peder Elias's upcoming concert, the singer told Cha Eun Woo that the next time he comes to South Korea, he'll "invite Cha Eun Woo to his show."

Even though Cha Eun Woo is a very famous celebrity, he is also a very normal fanboy. Here you can hear their amazing version of "Bonfire."

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.
