Hong Eunchae of LE SSERAFIM has issued an apology for a mistake made during a live broadcast.

On August 29, LE SSERAFIM held a showcase at YES24 Live Hall in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, to celebrate their fourth mini-album, "CRAZY."

Hong Eunchae addressed the controversy surrounding a past live broadcast slip-up where she made an insensitive comment to a high school senior fan.

During the live stream, she said, "You're in school, right? It must be tough for you," which was criticized as thoughtless.

Hong Eunchae admitted, "I was too relaxed thinking it was just a communication opportunity with fans. I should have been more careful, especially with people I’m close to. I didn’t think deeply about it."

She added, "I’m sorry for disappointing you with my immature behavior. I will work on being more cautious and responsible."

Meanwhile, LE SSERAFIM's new mini-album "CRAZY" is out on August 30. The album's message is "Let’s just go crazy with LE SSERAFIM," and it’s their first release in six months since their third mini-album "EASY" in February.

The title track "CRAZY" captures the excitement of meeting something that drives you wild. It connects with the thrill of experiencing exhilarating moments.

The album features five tracks: "Chasing Lightning," "Pierrot," "1-800-Hot-N-Fun," and "Reasons for Not Going Crazy."

"Chasing Lightning" was partially featured in the album trailer released on the 13th. "Pierrot" is a hip-hop track that samples Kim Wan Sun's "Pierrot Laughs at Us," blending old and new elements.

"1-800-Hot-N-Fun" was previewed during fan meetings in Japan and features contributions from producer BloodPop, known for his work with Justin Bieber, Lady Gaga, and Beyoncé. The final track, "Reasons for Not Going Crazy," credits member Huh Yunjin as the main producer.

"CRAZY" will drop on August 30th at 1 PM.

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.
