Netizens debate BTS's once-in-a-lifetime success in Kpop.

Fans can't believe BTS was invited to the White House to meet with Joe Biden about anti-Asian hate crimes, inclusion, and diversity.

BTS was unexpectedly called to the White House to discuss Asian discrimination with Vice President Joe Biden. BTS made history as the first Kpop group to appear on such a platform.

After this visit, Korean netizens began to wonder if any group can become as huge and influential as BTS. According to them, BTS has achieved more than any Kpop artist before them. The 7-member boy group was dubbed "legendary."

Some Korean netizens' thoughts are below.

• They're the first Kpop group to have such an impact.
• I used to think a Blue House invitation was enough… BTS now does White House talks
• Never again in Korea's history? BTS would be first and last to do this.
• BTS's popularity is unprecedented.
• They're legendary. They're truly unique.

The 7-member male group promotes constructive messages against violence and discrimination. Their unprecedented White House appearance shows the group's massive impact.

In 2017, BTS and their agency led UNICEF's "LOVE MYSELF" anti-violence campaign. Since then, the project has helped UNICEF generate funding to improve children's lives and prevent violence.

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.
