LOONA's Chuu opened up about her past eating disorder during her trainee days.

Chuu was in the trailer for Channel A's "Dr. Oh's Golden Clinic", which aired on September 30.

The actors, like Oh Eun-young and Park Na-rae, who wore bright clothes, couldn't hide their happy smiles. But the bright smile hid a mysterious pain.

Chuu confessed, "I eat so much that I can't get enough air. So much that I eat and then throw up. Once, my hands were shaking and my body was stiff, so I went to the emergency room. I know I should not, but I eat so I can be happy for 20 minutes".

Oh Eun-young diagnosed it as "a kind of self-harm", and Chuu explained the reason why she couldn't reveal her inner feelings by saying, "I feel like I'm stuck in a tough situation. I don't know how to show my appreciation". Oh Eun-young read her mind, saying, "There is a worry that it will fall apart if you take off the mask", and Chuu cried so much that she covered her face.

Chuu debuted as a member of the month in 2017. With her lovely image and stable singing ability, Chuu has grown into a unique character. However, compared to Chuu, she didn't get much attention as LOONA and she became the 'most girl' in the group.

In this process, some suspicions have been raised that there may be a conflict between Chuu and her agency, or between her other members. Attention is drawn to what Chuu, who was always bright, has in her painful heart.

"Dr. Oh's Golden Clinic", in which Chuu appears, will be broadcast at 9:30 pm on October 7th.

Former AOA member Kwon Min Ah—who opened up in the past about being bullied—has once again shared a deep and emotional message on social media, leaving fans feeling concerned and sending love.

On April 23, Min Ah took to her Instagram to write:
“I don’t know if I’ve become completely twisted, or if I’m just scared. Maybe I’m afraid the same thing will happen again. Everything feels scary. And I want to say something sharp to myself too—get it together.”

Along with the message, she posted a selfie where she wore a red knit top, had her hair half-up, and showed a soft pout with a calm expression. Though her outfit and style looked casual, the mood of her words felt heavy.

Fans aren’t sure if Min Ah was directing the message toward someone else or simply speaking to herself. The final line, “get it together,” sounds like a tough love reminder to herself—but also makes many wonder what she’s been going through recently.

People quickly filled the comment section with supportive messages, telling her to stay strong and reminding her she’s not alone.

Min Ah debuted with AOA in 2012 and left the group in 2019. In 2020, she made headlines when she revealed that she had been bullied during her time in the group. The confession caused a huge reaction in the K-pop world, leading to conversations about idols’ mental health and group dynamics.

Recently, she surprised fans when it was revealed she began working as a manager at a dermatology clinic, showing a new side of her life outside of the entertainment spotlight.

Fans continue to cheer her on, hoping she finds peace and happiness in whatever path she chooses next.
