• "If it's me, I would freak out!" Fans of Aespa's Winter are freaking out about a scary, unexpected "guest" on the show

    She didn't know!

    The SYNK ROAD reality show by Aespa is a travel show where the members go on different tasks and have fun in different parts of Korea.

    So far, there have been 12 shows, and in them, the members of aespa have shared a lot of funny and sweet moments with their fans.

    But in one episode of SYNK ROAD, a surprise "guest" showed up, which fans have only recently noticed.

    They can't believe that Winter didn't seem to notice the intruder!

    When people found out about this surprise guest, they posted about it on an online forum, and Winter liked an Instagram post about it.

    The "guest" in question was actually a very big, scary-looking wasp that landed on Winter's jacket and hair.

    Due to the thickness of her fur, Winter didn't seem to notice that a bug had chosen her as a place to rest.

    It looks like the people behind the camera either didn't see it or didn't say anything about it, which was probably a good thing since it could have caused some trouble.

    No one else would be able to look as cute as Winter does in these pictures with such a scary animal on her back, but she does it!

    The wasp hangs out on her jacket for a long time in the clip in the second slide of this Instagram post.

    Netizens' responses to the surprise feature in SYNK ROAD are pretty relatable, and they shared them on a forum post about it.

  • 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.
