• WJSN’s Seola Finally Met NCT's Jungwoo Her Male Idol Lookalike And They’re A Visual Explosion

    On a broadcast, NCT's Jungwoo and WJSN's Seola, whose faces are so similar that many people mistook them for siblings, finally met.

    On the afternoon of July 9th, WJSN appeared on MBC's "Show! Music Core" to perform the comeback stage for their newly released single "Last Sequence", which was released on July 5th.

    WJSN's Seola met with NCT's Jungwoo, an active "Music Core" MC, in a comeback interview to introduce the girl group's new song on this date.

    The two-shot scene of the two idols, rumored to have similar appearances since 2018, was broadcast for the first time, eliciting explosive responses from fans and netizens.

    Jungwoo and Seola, whose similar appearances have been recognized by members of WJSN and NCT, exude fantastic chemistry simply by standing next to one another. White skin, a prominent nose, and attractive jawlines are characteristics shared by both subjects.

    Many people are particularly impressed by Jungwoo and Seola, who both have puppy-like eyes and an innocent demeanor.

    By wearing white clothing and displaying similar facial expressions, the two gave the impression of being identical twins.

    As Seola and Jungwoo, who had never appeared on TV shows together despite being frequently mentioned together due to their visual resemblances, finally faced each other, fans responded with enthusiastic comments such as "Now that they're standing next to each other, I believe they resemble each other even more."

    Meanwhile, WJSN performed their new song "Last Sequence" on the same day, attracting attention with a spectacular stage and incredible singing abilities.

    "Last Sequence" is a dance pop song with wild bass lines, drums, and synthesizers. The members' ethereal and reviving vocals perfectly captured the summer spirit.

  • ADOR Drops Bombshell in Court: "NewJeans' Success Was Possible Because of HYBE’s 21 Billion KRW Investment and 'BTS’ Little Sister' Branding"

    ADOR is fighting to keep its hold on NewJeans (NJZ) and has revealed in court that the group’s success wasn’t just about talent—it was backed by massive financial support from HYBE.

    On March 7, the Seoul Central District Court held a hearing on ADOR’s injunction request to keep managing NewJeans and prevent the members from signing their own advertising deals.

    ADOR argued, NewJeans is one of Korea's top girl groups, and while their talent and hard work are key, that alone doesn’t explain their rapid rise. From their trainee days, our entire team—over 50 staff members, including stylists, choreographers, and directors—dedicated themselves to their success.”

    The company then dropped a major revelation, saying, “HYBE invested 21 billion KRW ($15.7 million) in ADOR in two phases. This level of funding for a single group is unheard of. Thanks to this, we built a special fan platform just for NewJeans and spent 10 billion KRW on their debut and marketing alone.”

    But that’s not all—ADOR also pointed out that NewJeans heavily benefited from HYBE’s connections, saying, “Before their debut, they were featured in BTS’ music videos and promoted their songs with HYBE artists through challenge videos. They were introduced as ‘BTS’ little sister group’ and marketed as the next BTS—even surpassing BTS.”

    This legal battle is far from over. NewJeans made headlines last November when they held a surprise press conference, declaring, “Our exclusive contract with ADOR is over,” and announced their new group name, NJZ. They’re even set to perform at ComplexCon in Hong Kong on March 23, hinting at their future without ADOR.

    However, ADOR insists that NewJeans is still under contract until July 31, 2029, and has taken legal action to prevent them from leaving. With both sides standing firm, fans are eagerly watching to see how this high-stakes fight will unfold.
