• "Will she make history?" — IVE’s Ahn Yujin could be first idol to win Baeksang’s Best Female Variety Performer

    IVE's Ahn Yujin has made waves in the entertainment industry and is now set to make a splash at the prestigious Baeksang Arts Awards.

    She's been nominated for the Best Female Variety Performer at the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards, a category that has seen the likes of Yoo Jae Suk, Kang Ho Dong, Shin Dong Yup, and Lee Young Ja as its winners.

    Since its inception in 1986, no female idol has ever won this trophy, making Ahn Yujin's nomination a significant event.

    Ahn Yujin's track record in the entertainment industry is impressive and award-worthy. She shone in 'Earth Arcade' and 'Crime Scene Returns' last year, exceeding expectations and creating a new entertainment character.

    Her performances were not only dazzling but also showed her ability to immerse herself fully in various roles, earning her the title of a 'Surefire Character of Entertainment'.

    Her dedication to both her main gig in IVE and her entertainment activities has been commendable, raising expectations for her win.

    The anticipation for Ahn Yujin's potential win is high, but the competition isn't easy. Renowned entertainers like Kim Sook, Lee Soo Ji, Jang Do Yeon, and Hong Jin Kyung have also been nominated for the award.

    Despite the tough competition, Ahn Yujin's nomination as an active idol among entertainers is already a significant achievement.

    Whether she wins or not, her nomination gives us a glimpse into her entertainment activities, and we can't wait to see what she does next.

  • Fans can't stop swooning over BTS's V showing off cherry blossoms and his toned muscles just 40 days before discharge

    BTS's V is making his fans fall even more in love with him as he shares moments from his life just 40 days before his military discharge.

    On April 30, V posted several new photos on his Instagram story, giving fans a sneak peek into his daily routine.

    Among the photos was a beautiful shot of cherry blossoms, accompanied by the word "cherry blossom" as he expressed his longing for spring.

    He followed up with more photos, sharing how much he wanted to enjoy the season with his fans.

    To make the post even more special, V added background music from BTS member J-Hope's song Sweet Dreams and Design by the American punk band Gustav.

    It turns out that Gustav was grateful for V introducing their music to the world and even received fan comments saying they discovered the band through him.

    In another adorable photo, V posed with CF director Ray J. Yi (Lee Jun Yeob), with flowers in his hair. The director also shared the cute photo, adding the word "flower" to express how happy he was with the moment.

    But it wasn’t all about flowers and beauty—V also gave fans a peek at his workout routine. He proudly showed off his toned arm muscles in a picture, though his face appeared a little thinner.

    This is likely due to his diet, as he’s been working hard to maintain his figure ahead of his discharge. Before enlisting, V weighed 62 kg, and during his service, he reached 86 kg. Now, he’s lost 10 kg and is preparing for his return to the public eye.

    Interestingly, V has been working out at the same place where singer Kim Jong Kook films his popular YouTube channel Jim Jong Kook, sparking fan excitement and hopes that V might make an appearance on the show after he’s discharged.

    As soon as V shared his latest update, his name—"KIM TAEHYUNG"—shot to the top of real-time trending charts worldwide. Fans from all over the globe, including in the U.S., couldn’t get enough of the updates, proving once again the massive impact V has.

    He is set to be discharged from the military on June 10, and fans are eagerly awaiting his return.
