And I was surprised by how taller she was than I expected. , he said, making Hyeri smile. However, Kim Do Hoon playfully shared, I was expecting Hyeri to be all sweet and friendly, but it turned out that she also likes pulling pranks and teasing. For instance, if you're unhappy with how you did on the show that day, you might keep it to yourself. But Hyeri kept asking me, 'What have you done today to contribute to the show?', comparing her and my involvement. Hyeri burst into laughter and said, Each of us had interviews after the shooting, and he just went on and on during his. In those interviews, you are supposed to talk about how you participated in the show. I tell you, he didn't do that much to talk about on that day! Kim Do Hoon chuckled and added, Having someone like her on the set made me feel comfortable. Thanks to her pranks, we became close quickly. I heard that Do Hoon offered his hand to Hyeri, but not to KARINA, while you guys had to get up on a high platform during the shooting. Is that true? , the host, comedian Jang Do-yeon asked. I think it was because Hyeri seems like the type that would get injured often. , Kim Do Hoon explained, She's like 'Geum Jan-di' (a character from KBS' drama 'Boys Over Flowers'). She's the type that makes me want to protect her. That's nice. , remarked Hyeri while pouting her mouth, which made everyone in the studio laugh. Kim Do Hoon revealed during the show how Hyeri teases him on the 'Agents of Mystery' set by not laughing when he makes jokes when she laughs when all other cast members do. When Hyeri, concerned, asked, Have I hurt your feelings? , Kim Do Hoon immediately answered that he never felt hurt by her actions. Kim Do Hoon, who revealed that he had a brother considerably younger than him, stated, I wanted an older sister since I was a child. Whenever I'm with Hyeri, I think, 'If I had an older sister, she would be like Hyeri.'. Her joking remarks never bothered me. I like how she pulls pranks on me.

[SBS Star] Park Myung-soo Says aespa WINTER Is Unlike Other K-Pop Stars He Has Met

Entertainer Park Myung-soo praised WINTER of K-pop girl group aespa's personality to the skies. On June 14, during his KBS Cool FM radio show, Park Myung-soo's Radio Show, Park Myung-soo talked about his new character, Cha Eun-soo, and shared some behind-the-scenes stories. Cha Eun-soo, dubbed a face genius, is a character in a web series played by Park Myung-soo, modeled after boy group ASTRO's Cha Eun-woo, who is often called a face genius for his stunning looks. This character is part of a humorous concept where Park Myung-soo, known for his comedic flair, takes on the persona of a strikingly handsome idol-turned-actor. In a recent episode, Cha Eun-soo filmed a web drama alongside WINTER. The collaboration between Park Myung-soo and WINTER drew significant attention due to the contrast between the veteran entertainer and the rising K-pop star. Discussing the shoot, Park Myung-soo said, Honestly, a big group like aespa doesn't need to participate in something like this web series. But WINTER did, and let me tell you, she was incredibly passionate about it. I told her to take it easy and have fun, but she was so committed. He continued, She said, 'I don't like how I acted in this scene. Can we shoot it again? I'll even cover the extra costs!' That's the level of dedication she brought to something she didn't have to be that serious about. He added, WINTER is not only beautiful but also a genuinely well-rounded person. She's unlike any K-pop star I've met before, expressing his admiration. She has this rare combination of talent, humility and an incredible work ethic, which is truly refreshing to see in the industry. Listeners of the radio show were touched by Park Myung-soo's praise for WINTER. Many fans took to social media to express their admiration for her dedication and character, reinforcing the positive image of the aespa member. Later in the show, Park Myung-soo also mentioned Cha Eun-woo, the inspiration for his character, with a playful smile. Cha Eun-woo is like a masterpiece sculpture. He should walk around with his face bandaged to avoid getting any scratches on his precious face, he joked. It's almost unfair how perfect his features are. I sometimes wonder if he's real!

[SBS Star] No Wonder She's So Thin! Everybody Is Shocked to Hear How Little WINTER's Family Eats

WINTER of K-pop girl group aespa shared stories of growing up in a family of small eaters. On May 30, WINTER and another aespa member KARINA appeared as guests on YouTube show Pinggyego. During the conversation, host Yu Jae Seok and KARINA excitedly talked about food, prompting Yu Jae Seok to ask WINTER about her appetite. WINTER replied, It's funny because I never had a big appetite. I've always been skinny, and my mom constantly told me to eat when I was young. Whenever she did, I'd think, 'I eat every day. Why does she keep telling me to eat? I'm so tired of eating.' I never really liked eating that much. My mom worried about my lack of appetite, but I developed more appetite after joining SM Entertainment. She continued, My family in fact hardly eats at all. We all have no real desire for food; we just eat enough to fill our stomachs when we're hungry. Everyone in my family eats very little, and we only make small portions for each meal. WINTER added, When I went home during my trainee days with a bigger appetite, I really wanted some fish cake soup. But my mom only prepared as many fish cake skewers as there were people. That's standard. Her thoughts are usually like, 'If it's not enough, I'll just make more later. But it's probably enough. I mean, are you going to eat more than one? Can you?' WINTER also mentioned, Four of us can't even finish one whole fried chicken together. We always had leftover pizza even if we ordered the smallest size. Before joining SM Entertainment, I could only eat one or two bites of everything because I'd get sick of it, so I didn't bother eating more. KARINA, known for her big appetite, humorously responded, I don't get it. If you get tired of fried chicken, you can just switch to the spicy one. Order half-and-half in the first place. What's the issue? You have to switch between two flavors as you eat. That's what you do when you get sick of one, not completely stop eating it! making Yu Jae Seok laugh. After watching this video, many left comments expressing their surprise at how little WINTER's family eats. Their comments included, Really? The whole family eats that little? Now we know why WINTER is so thin, That's crazy. Is that really a family's portion? That's unbelievable, They eat so little, and KARINA's half-and-half chicken comment was so funny. Our thoughts=Karina's thoughts! LOL, and more. (Credit= '뜬뜬 DdeunDdeun' YouTube) (SBS Star)

[SBS Star] NINGNING Shares Sadness About No Longer Having Enough Time & Energy to Drink with Members

NINGNING of K-pop girl group aespa expressed her sadness about no longer having enough time and energy to drink with her fellow group members. On May 29 episode of Hyoyeon of girl group Girls' Generation's YouTube show Level Up, NINGNING made a guest appearance. At the beginning of the video, Hyoyeon asked NINGNING, What have you been up to lately? Are you hanging out a lot? NINGNING replied, Well, the members of aespa and I used to frequently go out for meals and drinks, but I don't have the time and energy for it anymore. So, I don't really drink these days, with a bitter smile. Hyoyeon exclaimed, Really? then asked, You know, as trainees, we always dream of our lives after debut. I'm sure you did too. Is your current life anything like you imagined it would be? NINGNING responded, I always try to imagine myself perfectly, so I keep striving to become that in real life. Maybe I'm at 70% of how I pictured myself before debut? I don't know. But even now, I think I'm continually growing. I definitely want to grow even more in the future though. I have a lot of ambition and many things I want to do. I really enjoy continuously improving myself. She continued, I used to get really stressed out, but over time I've gotten used to it. Since it's the path I chose, I realized there's no point in getting stressed about it. There are more and more people who like me, and I feel like I need to do better for them. If I get too tired and stressed out now, and show it, it feels too irresponsible. NINGNING's words surprised Hyoyeon, who responded, You sound very mature and professional!
