• THE BOYZ’s Sunwoo Determined to Continue Promotions Despite Health Setback

    IST Entertainment has issued an update on the health of THE BOYZ Sunwoo . On November 24, the agency revealed that Sunwoo had experienced neck and shoulder pain earlier in the day.

    While initial plans were to immediately take him to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment, Sunwoo expressed a strong desire to participate in that day’s episode of “Music Bank.” Consequently, the decision was made to send him to the hospital after the pre-recording.

    Later in the evening, IST Entertainment released another statement, disclosing that Sunwoo had been diagnosed with neuralgia and neuritis in the neck and shoulder area following his hospital visit.

    Despite the doctor’s advice for Sunwoo to “minimize excessive movement for the time being,” the artist has shown “strong determination” to be part of THE BOYZ’s comeback promotions for their newly released album.

    As a result, Sunwoo will continue his activities “insofar as he can without overexerting himself.” The full statement from IST Entertainment reads as follows: “This is IST Entertainment. We are providing an update regarding THE BOYZ member Sunwoo’s health and future activities.

    This morning (November 24), Sunwoo complained of neck and shoulder pain, so immediately after today’s music show pre-recording, he went to the hospital. There, he was diagnosed with neuralgia and neuritis of the neck and shoulder area, and he received treatment.

    Based on the doctor’s opinion that he needs to minimize excessive movement for the time being, we discussed Sunwoo’s future participation in performances.

    As Sunwoo expressed strong determination to take part in album promotions, we chose to respect the artist’s opinion, and it was decided that he would continue activities insofar as he can without overexerting himself.

    Sunwoo will be joining THE BOYZ’s upcoming scheduled activities and taking part in the scheduled fan signing event, and it has been decided that, as much as possible, he will try to avoid any setbacks to the schedule that was promised to fans.

    We will consider our artist’s health our top priority, and we plan to continue to have Sunwoo undergo continuous treatment and to carefully check his condition so that his injury does not worsen.”

  • BLACKPINK Jennie’s Mom Had a Hilarious Reaction to Her Becoming a Chanel Ambassador—Her Response? “Ah, It’s Over”

    BLACKPINK’s Jennie recently shared a fun conversation with her mom, revealing her mother’s unexpected reaction to her becoming a Chanel ambassador!

    On March 13, a video was uploaded to the YouTube channel "Study King Genius Hong Jin Kyung." In the video, Hong Jin Kyung visited Jennie’s office.

    Since Jennie had previously mentioned that Hong Jin Kyung always makes her laugh, she greeted her warmly with a big hug.

    During their chat, Hong Jin Kyung shared a personal story, saying, "My daughter Rael went all the way to the U.S. to watch BLACKPINK at Coachella, but she got scammed when buying tickets. So, she couldn’t see BLACKPINK and ended up crying her eyes out." Jennie reacted with surprise and sympathy.

    As they got to know each other better, Jennie decided to call her mom to ask about her prenatal dream. However, her mom didn’t answer right away, so Jennie joked, "She’ll call back later."

    Jennie also opened up about her childhood, saying, "I had a strong sense of style from a young age. I loved fashion. I was a really obedient child, but when it came to school, I insisted on wearing what I wanted."

    She then talked about her experience studying alone in New Zealand for five years, starting at age nine. "I think it was a crucial experience that helped shape who I am today," she shared.

    When the topic of her Chanel ambassadorship came up, Jennie said, "It’s a brand I work with, but since I’ve been with them for so long, they feel like family."

    Later, Jennie’s mom finally returned her call. When Jennie asked, "What was my prenatal dream?" her mother replied, "A really big tiger… ah, it caught a carp." Jennie laughed and said, "I think Mom is confused too."

    But the moment that caught everyone’s attention was when Jennie asked how her mom felt about her being a Chanel ambassador. Her mother simply said, "Ah, it’s over."

    Hong Jin Kyung then joked, "Does that mean it's now my daughter's era? It’s over?"—causing everyone to burst into laughter.

    Later, Hong Jin Kyung playfully suggested playing a traditional Korean game with Jennie and made a hilarious request: "Jennie, when you go to Paris, I want to carry your bag. With my own money. But I’ll just bring a tiny camera and follow you a little. I won’t go inside Chanel."

    After Hong Jin Kyung won the game, Jennie kept her promise and said, "See you in Paris (in October)," leaving fans excited for what’s next!
