Actor Jeong Jae Gwang recently opened the doors to his charming one-room apartment on the April 4 episode of MBC's "Home Alone" (Episode 590), giving fans a peek into his unique daily life.

Known for his role as anesthesiologist Park Kyung Won in "Severe Trauma Center," Jeong Jae Gwang shared his peaceful routine, starting his day with a prayer. "It's been three years since I moved out on my own," he said. "When I come home after filming, I want to feel refreshed, so I decorated my place in wood tones and beige."

The warm, cozy interior, accented with orange touches, immediately caught the eye.

His personal touch was evident in the drawings he made himself, which added character to the space.

He also shared his love for secondhand treasures, saying, "I bought the lights on a secondhand market called 'Carrot Market.'

I also bought the chairs there. Things like blankets are from a vintage market that happens once a year, and I always make sure to participate."

Jeong Jae Gwang explained how old clothes and furniture bring him comfort, adding, "When I see old items, it really gives me a sense of peace.

The plants weren't bought randomly either. I picked ones that fit the space." He even considers folding laundry part of his interior design, proudly showcasing only items he loves.

When asked if this was his first home, Jeong Jae Gwang revealed, "I lived for a year near Seolleung Station, and I've been living here for two years now. This is my second home."

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.
