• Mamamoo's Solar Revealed Her Workout And Diet Preparations Ahead Of Her Solo Comeback

    Mamamoo's Solar, ahead of her solo comeback, revealed her diet routine.

    On March 3, on the YouTube channel 'Solasido', Solar released a vlog video of a day of extreme diet.

    Solar said, "I'm preparing for a comeback. So I'm dieting hard, but it's not easy to diet because I took a body profile picture and came to Yo-Yo." However, he added that the music video shoot was only a few days away, so he would go on a more extreme diet.

    After breakfast, Solar took nutritional supplements such as lactic acid bacteria, vitamins, and zinc carnitine. Solar said, "It's a big deal. I don't have energy because I'm on a diet. I couldn't exercise yesterday as well."

    After working out for two and a half hours, Solar went straight to the choreography practice room. Just before choreography practice, Solar said, "I just finished exercising while practicing and I'm not strong enough to practice right away, so I guess I'll have to eat and do it." She took out a simple lunch she brought from home.

    Although Solar is struggling with extreme diets, she explained, "When filming a music video or comeback approaches, there are so many things to do, so I tend to make simple meals."

    After two hours of practice, they immediately went to purchase stage props such as lenses to be used on stage. After gathering the props she had prepared, Solar started having a late dinner at 10 pm. Dinner that day was Greek yogurt, 3 cherry tomatoes, and a few frozen blueberries.

    Meanwhile, Solar will release her first mini-album '容: FACE' on the 16th.

    BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
