Actor Byeon Woo Seok has been stealing hearts with his latest show, 'Lovely Runner'. However, the newfound fame has also brought some unwarranted negativity.

A recent incident saw some fans of the actor launching an attack on Hyeri under a YouTube video from their joint project, 'Moonshine'.

The actress was unfairly criticized for allegedly "flirting" with Byeon, leading to a wave of criticism from netizens.

However, the attack on Hyeri was baseless, and recent discoveries have shown that the two stars share a deeper friendship than previously known.

On June 9, 2023, Hyeri shared photos of her intimate birthday celebration with friends, and Byeon Woo Seok was spotted among the attendees.

Eagle-eyed netizens also noticed his reflection in a solo picture of Hyeri, indicating that he was the one behind the camera.

The revelation sparked a range of reactions, with some fans expressing envy over their close friendship, while others admired Hyeri's extensive network of friends.

The fact that the two actors have stayed in touch since their 2021 project is a testament to their genuine friendship, further highlighting the senselessness of the hate directed towards Hyeri.

Comments from netizens included:

"I'm so jealous."

"I've seen that second picture a lot. It was on her feed, I see! LOL."

"Why is he taking her picture? My heart is fluttering"

"I saw it a long time ago but never realized."

"This is my first time seeing this, LOL."

"Hyeri's circle of friends is really wide."

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.
