• Sunny Leaves SM Entertainment to join Lee Soo Man’s New Company – Here’s What She’s Doing Now

    Sunny, a member of Girls' Generation, has made a big move by returning to work with her "uncle" Lee Soo Man.

    On the 10th, A2O Entertainment officially announced that they’ve signed a contract with Sunny.

    The company shared that she is currently undergoing producing training with the help of renowned producer Yoo Young Jin.

    A2O also revealed that Sunny is actively involved in designing training programs for the agency’s trainees, providing psychological support, and participating in video content production.

    She’s even guiding styling and choreography, showcasing her versatility behind the scenes.

    A recent video posted on A2O Entertainment's YouTube channel showed Sunny visiting the trainees’ recording studio, sparking rumors that she might be helping Lee Soo Man, which has now been confirmed.

    After Lee Soo Man sold his shares in SM Entertainment to HYBE in February 2023 and signed a non-compete agreement, he shifted his focus to A2O Entertainment in the U.S., where the company is now nurturing new trainees.

    Sunny officially left SM Entertainment in August 2023 when her exclusive contract ended, but she continues to promote with Girls' Generation.

    It’s also worth noting that Sunny is the daughter of Lee Soo Young, the CEO of Starworld, a company that produced the girl group Sugar. She’s well known as Lee Soo Man's niece, which makes this return to his side even more significant.

    Full Statement from A2O Entertainment:

    "Sunny recently completed her contract with A2O Entertainment. She is currently undergoing producing training under the guidance of producer Yoo Young Jin, while also designing training programs for A2O trainees, providing psychological care, participating in video content filming, and guiding styling and choreography. We are always grateful for the warm interest in Sunny and will continue to present even better versions of her in the future. Thank you."

  • 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.
