WJSN Bona delivered actress Kim Tae Ri's passion for acting together in the drama "Twenty Five Twenty One."

MBC's entertainment program "Radio Star," which aired on the afternoon of April 27, featured Choi Myung Bin, Yoon Eun Hye, Bona, and Heo Kyung Hwan as a special feature of "TV carries first love."

Bona, who played a passionate role as fencing gold medalist Ko Yu Rim in the drama "Twenty-five Twenty-one," drew attention by saying that she was guided by Won Woo Young, the national fencing team.

Actress Kim Tae Ri, who played Na Hee Do, a fencing rival in the drama, started fencing practice four months before Bona.

Bona, who has a strong desire to win, said that Kim Tae Ri also has a strong desire to win, and that she actually had a fencing match before filming.

Bona said, "I felt the difference between an actor and an idol, it feels like an actor is building a solid foundation to improve his skills, and an idol is used to achieving maximum efficiency in the shortest time. (Kim Tae Ri) is much better, but I won when I play games."

Referring to Kim Tae Ri's extraordinary passion for fencing, Bona then told an anecdote about Kim Tae Ri, saying, "I was surprised to see (Kim Tae Ri) working really hard."

Bona said there was a scene where Kim Tae Ri was training with a sandbag in the play, adding, "I once invited Kim Tae Ri to my house, and my whole body was soaked in sweat." Kim Tae Ri ran with sandbags for more than 30 minutes by car like the scene in the drama.

Bona said, "It was shocking in a good sense," and admired Kim Tae Ri's extraordinary passion for her role.

In addition, Bona boasted, "I went out to the Idol Star Athletics Championships and shot Exten," telling an anecdote of her light victory in the national palace match against Kim Tae Ri.

Meanwhile, MBC's "Radio Star" is an unrivaled talk show program that disarms guests with the talk of a skit who doesn't know where to go and brings out the real story, and airs every Wednesday at 10:30 p.m.

Former AOA member Kwon Min Ah—who opened up in the past about being bullied—has once again shared a deep and emotional message on social media, leaving fans feeling concerned and sending love.

On April 23, Min Ah took to her Instagram to write:
“I don’t know if I’ve become completely twisted, or if I’m just scared. Maybe I’m afraid the same thing will happen again. Everything feels scary. And I want to say something sharp to myself too—get it together.”

Along with the message, she posted a selfie where she wore a red knit top, had her hair half-up, and showed a soft pout with a calm expression. Though her outfit and style looked casual, the mood of her words felt heavy.

Fans aren’t sure if Min Ah was directing the message toward someone else or simply speaking to herself. The final line, “get it together,” sounds like a tough love reminder to herself—but also makes many wonder what she’s been going through recently.

People quickly filled the comment section with supportive messages, telling her to stay strong and reminding her she’s not alone.

Min Ah debuted with AOA in 2012 and left the group in 2019. In 2020, she made headlines when she revealed that she had been bullied during her time in the group. The confession caused a huge reaction in the K-pop world, leading to conversations about idols’ mental health and group dynamics.

Recently, she surprised fans when it was revealed she began working as a manager at a dermatology clinic, showing a new side of her life outside of the entertainment spotlight.

Fans continue to cheer her on, hoping she finds peace and happiness in whatever path she chooses next.
