BTS member J-Hope, who is currently serving in the military, gave fans a heartfelt message as Chuseok (Korean Thanksgiving) approaches.

On September 17, J-Hope took to Weverse to share his feelings about having just one month left in the military. He wrote, "One month left, exactly 30 days! At first, time felt so slow, but now I’ve gotten used to it, and I’m feeling a bit emotional. I’ve been packing my things and giving away items I used to my juniors. Seeing my empty locker just deepens my feelings even more."

Reflecting on his time in the military, J-Hope added, "Looking back, it wasn’t a big deal, but I remember being so nervous and tense back then. Even the sound of the locker opening used to stress me out. Now, seeing the new recruits arrive, I feel a sense of camaraderie and see myself in them. It’s actually kind of cute."

J-Hope also shared, "Right now, I’m the typical senior soldier who’s about to be discharged. I’m writing this while lying on my bed, haha. The holiday is great! I get to rest well! I rambled a bit, but I just wanted to send my Chuseok greetings. And funny enough, today marks exactly 30 days until I’m discharged."

He ended his message with, "I hope autumn comes soon. I’ll see you all next month on this day. Until then, take good care of your health."

J-Hope, who enlisted in April last year, is currently serving as an instructor at a recruit training battalion. He is set to be discharged on October 17. Fans are already eagerly awaiting his return!

Former S.E.S member Shoo (Yoo Soo Young) warmed hearts as she shared a touching moment with her twin daughters—taking them to the same wholesale market where she once worked during a difficult time in her life.

On May 8, Shoo posted several photos on Instagram showing her spending time with her twin daughters, Ra Hee and Ra Yul, at the Dongdaemun wholesale market. In the caption, she wrote, “Did everyone enjoy the holiday? I feel like I made a memory I’ll never forget for the rest of my life.”

The photos showed Shoo and her daughters smiling brightly while eating and shopping together. Her daughters, now visibly grown up, were even seen wearing similar shoes and clothes as their mom.

Shoo opened up about a painful chapter in her past. “When I was struggling, I once sold clothes I got from Dongdaemun with the help of a friend,” she shared. “I used to go there from night to early morning, picking up fleece clothes, hairpins, and shoes, thinking, ‘My kids would love this if I brought them here.’”

Now that her daughters are older, Shoo finally fulfilled that dream. “We laughed so much while shopping. We bought hairpins, socks, and clothes together,” she said. “They’ve grown so much—they can even wear the same things as me.”

Reflecting on the experience, she added, “Memories of my past flashed before my eyes. I told them how I used to work late at night, carrying heavy bags and walking around for 10 hours straight.”

Shoo emotionally concluded, “I was so happy to show my kids the nighttime world I once worked in.”

Fans who remember Shoo’s twins from The Return of Superman were touched to see how much they’ve grown. Shoo, now a proud mom of three, continues to update fans through her TV appearances and social media, showing her strength as both a mother and former idol.
