• Netizens Have Mixed Reaction To NewJeans' AR-Free Live Singing During Inkigayo Encore Performance

    Netizens talked about NewJeans' live singing on "Inkigayo".

    On August 21 KST, NewJeans delivered another performance on the SBS music program and landed on the first place with their pre-release single "Attention".

    During the encore stage, the girls began their live-singing, which was heard clearly without any extra AR layers.

    On an online community forum, a netizen shared a full video from Youtube that presented how their singing sounded without AR:

    Some netizen comments include:

    Congratulations on your #1, the babies did so well ❤️.

    The babies are so good and so pretty ㅠㅠ.

    When I first heard this song, I didn't think the vocals were this "upbeat," so I thought it would be hard to do live. I also want to hear Hype Boy.

    It was pretty good? Danielle is so versatile, and the tone of her voice is good.

    I missed the second person, but they were fine, right? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ They're not great, but they were good enough.

    This is good enough; they did well.

    I couldn't hear Haerin, but other than that, they were fine. If we can't hear you, either your voice isn't loud enough or the mic was turned down too far.

    Attention isn't a song in which your voice blows up, right? It sounds a lot like the digital version.

    Haerin was hard to hear, but the rest were fine.

    It's not like they sucked... The more they practice on stage, the better they'll get

    I'm a bit disappointed because it sounded so different from their live band version 

    Danielle was good. Her voice is also nice.

    For such a quiet song, they did wellㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Nowadays, people are just busy laughing and not singing in encores

    Imagine telling young kids they were bad because they felt like they were less than others. Let the kids have fun with their.

    Hanni is so good.

    What do you think of NewJeans's live vocal sound?

  • Kang Ye Won Breaks Down in Tears, Says She’s ‘Destined to Never Marry’—Joins Dating Show for Her 83-Year-Old Father

    Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

    On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

    During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

    She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

    She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

    When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

    "It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

    However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

    She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

    Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
