After being appointed as a soju model, actress Han So Hee canceled her New Year's resolution written on her "wild" photos and burst out laughing.

Earlier, Lotte Chilsung Beverage announced on the 3rd that Han So Hee was selected as the new model for their main soju brand, "Chum-Churum."

Lotte Chilsung said, "We selected Han So Hee as the new face of 'Chum-Churum' because we believe her modest and communicative nature with fans through Instagram and other social media platforms makes her an ideal fit for a soju model that shares both joy and sorrow."

The beautifully(?) described communication by Lotte Chilsung was from Han So Hee's drinking video posted on her channel on January 24th.

The photo posted by Han So Hee showed her friends playing "Jenga" next to her flat stomach and included a video of Han So Hee lying in the park, drunk, with her friends covering her with a jacket, which made people burst out laughing.

At that time, Han So Hee wrote, "And I won't drink again" in the post, but the next day, after being appointed as an advertising model, she commented, "I'm canceling it" to correct her statement and delight her fans.

Fans reacted, saying, "The 'Chum-Churum' officials will love this comment," "Haha, I really want to be her friend," and "She endured it for only a month. LOL."

Meanwhile, Han So Hee is set to meet fans through Netflix's "Seoul Creature," which is scheduled to be released in the second half of this year.

"Seoul Creature" is a creature thriller about two youths born out of greed in the spring of 1945 confronting monsters where Park Seo-joon, Su-hyun, Kim Hae-sook, Jo Han-cheol, Wi Ha-jun, and others star.

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.
