One unexpected news about singer-actress Suzy is drawing attention. 

On March 10, Sports Chosun, citing an entertainment industry official, said, "Suzy will be the main character of Netflix's new series 'The Girl Downstairs!' (directed by Lee Jung-hyo)." 

‘The Girl Downstairs’ is the work of artist Min Song-ah, which has been serialized on Naver since July 2019. 'The Girl Downstairs', which is currently running until season 3 and is being uploaded as a Thursday webtoon, is a work depicting the story of a sudden retired idol Doona Lee living in the same house with Lee Won Jun, a freshman in college.

When the news that Suzy would play the title role of Lee Doo-na in 'The Girl Downstairs, most netizens responded that it was a bit unexpected, but that it would be fun if the adaptation was done well. 

In the online community Theku comment box , “Suzy..?” “Huh..” “It’s true… .?” “I’m curious about the male lead too, I think if the adaptation is done well, it will come out well!” Words such as “I hope the adaptation goes well” and “Oh Suzy’s image is different, but I’m looking forward to it” came up and drew attention.

It is reported that director Lee Jung Hyo, who made tvN's 'Crash Landing on You', 'Romance is a Bonus Book' and OCN's 'Life on Mars', will be directing.

Meanwhile, Suzy made a comeback as a singer after about four years.

Suzy released her new single 'Satellite' on various music sites at 6 pm on February 17. 'Satellite' is a song made with the sound of a band with a Britpop tendency.

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.
