MAMAMOO's Hwasa appeared on Shin Dong Yup's YouTube series, 'Jjan Han Hyung,' in its fifth episode titled 'Magic Eye: 'Is this an apple?' - EP.06,' which was released on October 2nd.
During the show, Hwasa shared that she started drinking more this year. She said, "I'm 29 now, and when the New Year began, I felt regretful. I felt like I didn't enjoy my twenties enough, so I turned to alcohol for about a month."
Hwasa also mentioned that her friends were surprised by her drinking habits because she was drinking throughout the day.
She admitted, "Because I drank constantly for a whole month, my face got really swollen."
Shin Dong Yup lightened the mood with a joke, saying, "If you keep drinking, how can you control the effects? Calling it'swelling' is just a polite way to say you gained weight."
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.
