For the first time since middle school, Yeji, a member of the girl group ITZY, styled her bangs.

It was on September 9th that the second primary characters of "MIX&MAX" appeared on the "STUDIO CHOOM" YouTube channel.

The songs "Mix and Max" and "Break My Heart Myself" by Bebe Rexha will have Yeji and Ryujin giving skeptical performances. Inspired by the movie "Terminal", they created a twin concept for the stage and used twin poses and dance to embellish the stage.

Yeji and Ryujin sit down for an in-depth conversation about dancing in this video.

Yeji's bangs drew notice in the teaser and MV, when they appear in the center of the video. In addition to her charming demeanor, Yeji's stylish appearance has only added to her allure.

When Yeji said, "I've not had my bangs down since middle school", everyone gasped.

Yeji, who will be 23 in a few months, made his acting debut in 2019 when he was just 20. This "Mix & Max" performance video shows a completely different side of the female idol because she has never worn her bangs down since middle school.

"We prepared everything, from makeup to outfits, with a lot of care for Yeji and Ryujin", the crew working with them said in a spotlight video. "I'm sure they'd be recognized as twins by anyone who saw them".

"Mix & Max", on the other hand, is an original episode on "Studio Choom" that features dance-specific celebrities performing together and talking about their choreography in depth. Yeji and Ryujin will release their "Mix & Max" video today.

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.
