• "Hani's Unfiltered Confessions" EXID Hani Recalls JYP Trainee Days and Reveals Mother's Initial Hesitation Towards Debut

    "Heo Young-man's Food Travel" will have EXID member and actor Hani on it.


    TV Chosun's new show "Heo Young-man's Food Travel" will air on December 15th. It will show Heo Young-man and Hani going to Cheorwon, Gangwon-do, to find food.

    In addition to singing for 12 years, Hani has also been in a number of shows, movies, and plays.

    She said, "I had to find and look at the camera all the time during EXID activities."

    "There were many times when the directors shook my hand because I still found cameras when I was acting."

    Hani is going to talk more about how being an idol and an actor are alike and different.

    Hani also said that she almost couldn't make her start, which made people want to know what happened.

    The member of EXID said she was a JYP student and was chosen to make her debut, but her mother strongly opposed it, telling her, "There's no way you can make it."

    She made her debut after a lot of problems, and every time her group put out a record, it failed, so she promised to only put up with it for three years.

    Their song finally got some attention when it went back up on the charts.

    Meanwhile, Hani, who is known for how beautiful she is, shocked everyone when she said her nickname was "bald eagle."

    "My fans always call me 'brother (hyung)' no matter what age or gender they are," she said, making people wonder why they call her that.

    That day, Hani went to a makguksu restaurant near Goseokjeong, which is one of the most well-known spots in Cheorwon.

    The new show on December 15 at 8 p.m. will focus on the "makguksu eating method" that Hani was so interested in.

    BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
