VIVIZ (Umji, Eunha, Sinb, and Umji) will meet global fans through Mnet's 'Queendom 2'.

The agency Big Planet Maid announced on February 21, "VIVIZ has confirmed its appearance on Mnet's survival program 'Queendom 2', which will be aired for the first time on March 31."

'Queendom 2' is a comeback survival program in which six top girl groups compete and release singles one time each day. As this season is aimed not only at domestic but also global K-pop fans, there is anticipation for more intense competition and abundant entertainment.

Among them, the news of VIVIZ, who recently had a successful debut ceremony, has been reported and is drawing keen attention. In particular, as the group gained great popularity as an irreplaceable 'sword group dancer' during GFRIEND's activities, the curiosity about what kind of fresh performance will be presented by VIVIZ, a newly formed group, is heightened.

VIVIZ released their first mini-album 'Beam Of Prism' on February 9 and started their full-fledged debut activities. At the same time as the release, VIVIZ took the top spot on the real-time chart of the Bugs with the title song 'BOP BOP!' Not only that but MBC M' Show! Champion' and Mnet's 'M Countdown', after a week of the debut, won two music broadcasts, imprinting a still shining presence.

The attention is focused on what kind of charm VIVIZ will capture global fans with, which has returned splendidly as a 'recruited rookie' in the fierce battle of girl groups.

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.
