Red Velvet's Yeri might be stepping into the acting world full-time soon as she considers leaving SM Entertainment and joining a new agency!

On April 9, Blitzway Studio, which houses several popular actors, confirmed to Newsen that they are in talks with Yeri about signing an exclusive contract. However, they were careful not to reveal too many details.

Earlier, on April 4, SM Entertainment announced that Yeri and fellow member Wendy’s exclusive contracts had ended. While both are leaving the company, they will remain part of Red Velvet and continue to participate in group activities.

Yeri, who debuted in 2014 with Red Velvet’s hit song “Happiness”, has already dabbled in acting. She made her acting debut in 2021, appearing in KBS’ Drama Stage 2021 - Mint Condition and Playlist’s Blue Birthday.

She then gained more attention in 2023 for her role in the Netflix series Bitch and Rich.

This year, Yeri is set to make her big-screen debut in the upcoming movie Next, which is scheduled for release soon!

Blitzway Studio is already home to popular actors like Go Du Shim, Jung Ryeo Won, and Ju Ji Hoon, among others. In 2023, actor Kim Woo Seok from the group Up10tion also signed an exclusive contract with the agency.

Will Yeri focus more on acting in the future? Fans are excited to see what’s next for her as she takes this big step in her career!

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.
