FIFTY FIFTY's agency, Attrakt, has shown support for one of its members, Keena, on her birthday amidst an ongoing dispute between the group and the agency.

On July 9th, FIFTY FIFTY's official Instagram account shared a photo with the caption "2023.07.09. HAPPY KEENA DAY," celebrating Keena's birthday.

This gesture from Attrakt has garnered attention as it comes at a time when the trial is in progress, following FIFTY FIFTY's application for an injunction to suspend the validity of their exclusive contracts with Attrakt.

In the trial held at the Seoul Central District Court, FIFTY FIFTY argued that they were unable to continue with their exclusive contracts due to several reasons.

These included Attrakt's alleged violation of providing settlement data transparently and faithfully, neglecting the members' physical and mental health care obligations, and a lack of support for their entertainment activities.

In response, Attrakt denied these claims and defended themselves by stating that they had invested a substantial amount of money, approximately 8 billion won, and even borrowed funds from the CEO's mother.

They argued that FIFTY FIFTY's doubts about Attrakt's capabilities were unfounded and that it was unfair to dismiss their investment and claim that they lacked the necessary ability.

Netizens' Comments:

"Happy birthday, Keena! Stay strong amidst all this chaos."

"Attrakt's support seems superficial considering the legal battle going on."

"I hope the truth comes out during the trial. Both sides seem to have conflicting claims."

"Attrakt's defense doesn't convince me. Money invested doesn't necessarily mean proper management."

"Regardless of the dispute, Keena deserves a happy birthday. Wishing her all the best."

Former S.E.S member Shoo (Yoo Soo Young) warmed hearts as she shared a touching moment with her twin daughters—taking them to the same wholesale market where she once worked during a difficult time in her life.

On May 8, Shoo posted several photos on Instagram showing her spending time with her twin daughters, Ra Hee and Ra Yul, at the Dongdaemun wholesale market. In the caption, she wrote, “Did everyone enjoy the holiday? I feel like I made a memory I’ll never forget for the rest of my life.”

The photos showed Shoo and her daughters smiling brightly while eating and shopping together. Her daughters, now visibly grown up, were even seen wearing similar shoes and clothes as their mom.

Shoo opened up about a painful chapter in her past. “When I was struggling, I once sold clothes I got from Dongdaemun with the help of a friend,” she shared. “I used to go there from night to early morning, picking up fleece clothes, hairpins, and shoes, thinking, ‘My kids would love this if I brought them here.’”

Now that her daughters are older, Shoo finally fulfilled that dream. “We laughed so much while shopping. We bought hairpins, socks, and clothes together,” she said. “They’ve grown so much—they can even wear the same things as me.”

Reflecting on the experience, she added, “Memories of my past flashed before my eyes. I told them how I used to work late at night, carrying heavy bags and walking around for 10 hours straight.”

Shoo emotionally concluded, “I was so happy to show my kids the nighttime world I once worked in.”

Fans who remember Shoo’s twins from The Return of Superman were touched to see how much they’ve grown. Shoo, now a proud mom of three, continues to update fans through her TV appearances and social media, showing her strength as both a mother and former idol.
