Kim Heechul's inquiry following a statement made by Ningning from the group aespa has generated negative reactions from viewers and internet users.

During a recent episode of the popular talk show 'Knowing Bros' that aired on June 10, aespa members Ningning, Karina, and Winter appeared as special guests. The cast members were pleasantly surprised by Ningning's significant improvement in speaking Korean.

Among the various topics discussed, the conversation turned to the importance of a guy's appearance when dating.

Heechul posed a question to all three girls, asking if they consider a guy's looks. Without hesitation, Ningning replied, "I don't."

Ningning's answer raised doubts and led to protests from everyone present. It was at this point that Heechul decided to speak up.

He jokingly remarked, "Young Chul has the best personality among us," indirectly suggesting whether Ningning would date him or not. In response, Ningning playfully replied, "Oh really? And…" which elicited laughter from the group.

Following the broadcast of the episode, many viewers expressed their dissatisfaction with Heechul's comments.

They criticized his indirect inquiry about Ningning's potential interest in Kim Young Chul while simultaneously implying that the comedian may not meet conventional standards of physical attractiveness.

Netizens congregated on online platforms to voice their opinions, stating:

"Why would Heechul ask such a question to a girl who was born in 2002?"

"He basically says that Kim Young Chul is ugly. That's not nice."

"The question is rude to Ningning and Kim Young Chul alike."

"What does he hope to get? He is being rude to them both.

"Why is he being so mean to Kim Young Chul?"

"But Ningning's answer was hilarious."

"When Heechul asked Ningning a question, her cute 'And?' was exactly what I wanted to say."

"I can't stand Heechul at all. He is so mean."

BTS member Jin has touched hearts once again with his kind gesture to support those affected by wildfires.

On April 3, Jin visited Gilan Middle School in Gilan-myeon, Andong, to serve meals to disaster victims and firefighters. His actions brought much-needed comfort to the people in the area.

Gilan Middle School is where celebrity chef Baek Jong Won, a close friend of Jin, has been running a free meal service through his company, The Born Korea.

Since March 28, The Born Korea has been providing meals for the wildfire victims, preparing 300 to 700 servings each time to ensure that the affected people and firefighters receive warm food.

Jin quietly made his way to Andong, a region that suffered extensive damage from the wildfire, to lend a helping hand.

Big Hit Music, Jin’s agency, shared, “Jin wanted to provide even a small amount of help to those affected by the wildfires, which is why he decided to participate in this volunteer activity.”

This heartwarming gesture follows BTS's large donations for wildfire recovery efforts. Jungkook donated a whopping 1 billion KRW, while V gave 200 million KRW, and RM, J-Hope, and Suga each contributed 100 million KRW to aid in the recovery.
