'Irene's Walk and Holiday' is a program that promotes Irene's first reality variety show, and the production company explains that she is going on vacation with the 'Chinchin' (real friend) staff who have been with her on all schedules and daily life from the beginning of her debut until now.

The program drew public attention in that it portrayed the daily life of Irene and her staff, along with the past that climbed on the cutting board as the cause of the controversy over her past staff abuse.

With the launch of this program, Irene, who suffered a blow to her image as a result of the 'controversy of power abuse', has emerged as a concern of K-pop fans whether Irene can try to reverse it.

In the teaser video released this time, Irene preparing for her stage and her traveling with her staff to Bali, Indonesia are depicted.

Before the concert stage, Irene received the staff's makeup and showed a nervous look, saying, "This stage is really shaky." In addition to this, she instructs the staff to “mark the center”, and she also showed meticulous preparation for the stage.

On her Bali trip, she announced her bright current situation as if she had let go of her worries. She can feel her passion for her program in the appearance of Irene, who continues her march, saying, “There is no one left behind.”

The production team emphasized, "It will be a time to meet singer Irene and human Bae Joo-hyun, who have various charms, at the same time."

Song Min Ho, a member of WINNER, has officially completed his alternative military service, but the road ahead seems uncertain. Recent allegations about inadequate service have sparked investigations, leaving fans wondering what’s next for the beloved artist and his group.

According to reports, Song Min Ho finished his 1 year and 9 months as a social service worker on December 23. He was stationed at the Mapo Resident Convenience Facility and was discharged on schedule. However, controversy arose when it was revealed that he did not report to work on his final day, citing medical leave.

Reports suggest that Song Min Ho has been dealing with mental health challenges, including panic disorder and bipolar disorder, throughout his service. Despite being deemed unfit for alternative service earlier this year, he insisted on completing his term.

However, things took a turn when Dispatch claimed that Song Mino had taken a 5-night, 6-day trip to Hawaii in late October and failed to properly fulfill his duties afterward.

They also alleged that his attendance records might have been falsified. YG Entertainment responded cautiously, saying, “The artist's service details are difficult to confirm, but his sick leave was part of ongoing treatment, and all other leaves complied with regulations.”

The director of the facility where Song Mino served, Mr. A, also defended him. “His sick leave did not exceed the limit, and I checked his attendance daily,” he said. However, he admitted that verifying attendance every morning wasn’t always possible during busy times.

Adding to the tension, the Military Manpower Administration (MMA) is currently investigating the claims. They have secured CCTV footage to verify the allegations, and any violations could lead to disciplinary action against Song Mino.

Fans are also worried about what this could mean for WINNER’s future. Kang Seung Yoon, who recently completed his active-duty military service, expressed excitement about reuniting with his bandmates, saying, “I can’t wait to greet everyone as a complete group with Jinwoo hyung, Seunghoon hyung, and Mino soon.” However, if Song Min Ho faces repercussions, WINNER’s plans for a group comeback might be delayed.

As the MMA’s investigation continues, fans and the public are keeping a close eye on the situation. Will Song Min Ho clear his name and return to the spotlight, or will these allegations cast a shadow over WINNER’s future? Stay tuned for updates!
