• Seol In Ah Opens Up About Her Struggles with Insomnia: "I've Been Taking Sleeping Pills for 5 Years"

    Actress Seol In Ah recently shared her personal battle with insomnia.

    On the first episode of tvN's "The Iron Squad of Girls", which aired on September 7, Seol In Ah sat down with fellow actresses Jin Seo Yeon, Uee, and Park Ju Hyun as they prepared for a tough triathlon challenge.

    During the episode, Jin Seo Yeon asked Seol In Ah why she chose to take part in the challenge. Seol paused before revealing, "Honestly, I can't sleep. I've been taking sleeping pills for about five years."

    She went on to explain, "It really frustrated me. I kept asking myself, 'Why do I need pills just to sleep?' I even thought, 'Am I not tired enough?' So I pushed myself harder, trying to stay busy. That's how I got this image of living a 'perfect life.'"

    Seol added, "In reality, I was just moving more, hoping it would help me sleep better. Even though people see me as healthy, I’ve never truly been healthy. I want to use this challenge to get better."

    She also shared how it affected her work: "When I take sleeping pills, it's hard to focus on filming. Last year, I tried to stop taking them, but after not sleeping for 3–4 days, my immune system broke down. I ended up at the hospital and now take 24 medications a day. I really want to get healthy again."

    The Iron Squad of Girls follows Jin Seo Yeon, Uee, Seol In Ah, and Park Ju Hyun as they take on the extreme triathlon. The show airs every Saturday at 5:50 p.m. on tvN.

  • 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.
