Suga showed off his exceptional chemistry.

On March 28th, a video titled "[Soochita] EP.7 SUGA with Jimin" was uploaded to "BANGTANTV."

Jimin, who recently released his first solo album "Face," talked about the album with Suga.

First, Suga, who saw the physical album, jokingly said, "Why is there so much skin exposure these days? As you get older, you show more skin," and Jimin said, "I take off my clothes once in the music video."

However, Suga was surprised and said, "Isn't that a little too much? I can understand it to some extent in 'No More Dream,' but..."

Suga revealed behind-the-scenes stories of Jimin's solo album, saying, "I watched Jimin going crazy in real-time, wondering whether to do it or not," while Jimin left a review saying, "The process of writing lyrics, recording, and deciding on the concept was more difficult than making the song itself."

Suga said, "There are too many things I want to do well. It's Park Jimin's first album, so I felt like I couldn't make good choices because I wanted to do everything so well."

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.
