• NewJeans's Minji Expresses Gratitude to Footballer Hwang Hee Chan, "That's a Lot of Praise"

    NewJeans's Minji recently received a compliment from renowned athlete Hwang Hee Chan, and she had a response to share.

    On the 14th, SPOTV released a video featuring Son Heung Min and Hwang Hee Chan, famous Korean soccer players who had recently faced each other in the Premier League.

    In the video, the two players took the time to answer various questions related to Korea. Son Heung-min was asked about the type of music he listens to frequently, and he promptly answered, "BTS." On the other hand, Hwang Hee Chan humorously remarked, "This is difficult. I listen to so much music that if I were to talk about it all, I wouldn't finish today."

    When questioned about Chuncheon, a region in Korea, Son Heung Min appeared hesitant before mentioning several things related to the area.

    Hwang Hee Chan, in contrast, proudly declared that Son Heung Min is from Chuncheon and then shyly added that NewJeans's Minji is a source of pride for the region.

    Afterwards, the news of Hwang Hee Chan's comment was conveyed to Minji through NewJeans's communication app, Phoning. In response, Minji said, "Am I really the pride of Chuncheon? That's too much praise."

  • Kwon Mina Struggles with Heart-Wrenching Cancer News for Her Dog—Fans Are Heartbroken

    Former AOA member Kwon Mina has shared a deeply emotional and heartbreaking update with her fans.

    On January 20, Kwon Mina took to Instagram to reveal some difficult news. "I have some upsetting and heartbreaking news to share", she wrote, explaining that her dog, Mochi, had been diagnosed with malignant cancer.

    She shared that a lump had been growing on her dog’s leg for years, and despite undergoing several surgeries, it kept coming back. Sadly, the latest diagnosis confirmed it was cancerous.

    Kwon Mina’s post continued, "The pain is expected to get worse, and the doctor told me to prepare myself to say goodbye to Mochi, as she will suffer a lot."

    She added, "Today, I can’t stop crying, and my heart feels like it’s breaking. I’m looking into options like anesthesia, euthanasia, and funeral arrangements so that she can pass without pain."

    She reached out to her followers for advice, asking, "If anyone knows a better solution, please let me know."

    Kwon Mina debuted in 2012 as a member of the popular girl group AOA. The group achieved great success with hits like "Heart Attack," "Bingle Bangle," "Like a Cat," and "Miniskirt".

    However, in 2020, Kwon Mina opened up about being bullied by her AOA members, leading to the group’s eventual disbandment.

    In a more positive update, Kwon Mina also announced on January 15 that she has started a new chapter in her career.

    She will be working as a consultant at a dermatology clinic near Sicheong Station, which is set to open in March, signaling her fresh start after a difficult year.

    Fans have rallied around Kwon Mina with messages of support as she navigates this emotional time.
