• RIIZE member Anton is Gaining Attention for His Unexpected Connection to IU — Here’s How Close the Two Were

    RIIZE member Anton has been making waves in the entertainment world even before his official debut. Born to the famous producer and singer Yoon Sang, he already had a head start in the industry.

    But what surprised fans even more were his personal friendships with celebrities, which were uncovered through his now-deleted Instagram posts.

    One of his notable posts featured a picture of brand-new Louis Vuitton shoes, accompanied by a note of gratitude.

    What caught the attention of many was the casual hashtag he used: "#IU." In a pleasant twist, IU herself left a comment on the post, confirming their close friendship.

    Anton: "Took a hike up Namsan just to enjoy a burger. Thanks for the shoes, IU noona."
    IU: "What's with that screenshot…"

    While the exact screenshot in question couldn't be found online, Anton also shared a breathtaking view from the top of Namsan, hinting that IU might have treated him to a delicious meal at a hilltop restaurant!

    Dining at such a place would certainly be on the expensive side. Not only did IU gift him shoes and possibly an upscale burger, but she also solidified their bond by following him on Instagram.

    Given that IU follows only a select few, this gesture speaks volumes about their friendship.

    For fans of IU, this close connection with Anton doesn't come as a surprise. After all, IU and Yoon Sang share a tight-knit relationship, with IU often affectionately referring to him as her "father."

    Yoon Sang even gifted her the song "Only I Didn't Know," a pivotal track that played a significant role in propelling IU to stardom.

    With a decade-long age gap between them, Anton and IU share a heartwarming sister-brother relationship that fans can't help but find adorable!

  • Former S.E.S Shoo brings her twin daughters to a night market and reveals emotional story: “I once sold clothes just to get by”

    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.
