• "We can handle things now" — Wendy discourages fan truck protests for Red Velvet, suggests alternative support

    Red Velvet's Wendy recently talked about the fan protests involving trucks outside the company.

    In a recent fancall, Wendy shared her thoughts, encouraging fans to think about different ways to show their support.

    "No more trucks and emails," Wendy said. "We've been around for 10 years. We can handle things on our own. We've got some power too."

    Speaking in a comforting tone, Wendy reminded fans that their efforts might be better used elsewhere. "Instead of spending money on protests, use that money to treat yourselves to some good food and drinks," Wendy suggested, emphasizing a more positive approach.

    Wendy's straightforward comments have sparked mixed reactions. While some see protest trucks and mass emails as crucial for expressing fan concerns, others are starting to question if these methods could have negative consequences.

    Wendy's disapproval of these approaches suggests a preference for resolving matters within the company, without external fan pressure.

    At the same time, some fans argue that if Wendy supports these protests, it might strain her relationship with the company, while opposing them could disappoint fans.

  • IU Secretly Watches Her Own Movie in a Theater, Drops Hints About Her Identity, but No One Recognizes Her?!

    IU recently revealed that she watched her own concert film in a public theater, but shockingly, no one recognized her—even when she dropped a hint!

    On February 27, a new video featuring IU was released, showing her inside a car on her way to Daejeon.

    She excitedly shared, “This is a surprise stage greeting for UAENA! I picked this location through a ladder game when I did stage greetings.”

    Previously, IU had let fate decide which city she would visit after her stage greetings. She happily said, “There are UAENAs everywhere I go. Wherever I go, it's a flowery path.” The game ultimately led her to Daejeon.

    IU originally hoped to explore the city, saying, “I wanted to visit Daejeon's pride, Sung Sim Dang, and walk around, but my team said it wouldn’t be possible. The lines are too long, and it’s freezing outside.” She sighed, adding, “So, things turned out this way.”

    Dressed up for the occasion, IU smiled, saying, “I don’t get to meet UAENAs in Daejeon often, so I wanted to make a surprise appearance looking my best.”

    She also joked about enjoying surprise events, adding, “As long as Hanteo oppa drives me safely, I’m happy.”

    But what really caught fans' attention was IU’s unexpected confession—she had secretly watched her concert film in a theater, but no one noticed her! “No one recognized me at all. There weren’t that many people, and it was a weekday… but still! I even gave a hint! she said, sounding both amused and surprised.

    Later, when IU finally appeared at the theater, her fans were overwhelmed with emotion. Some even burst into tears, prompting her to gently say, “You really didn’t expect me to come, right?”

    After wrapping up her stage greeting, IU laughed at herself, saying, “Wait, did I just do a 40-minute one-woman show? I must have talked so much.”

    On her way back to Seoul, IU reflected on the day, sharing, “It was so cold today. I shook hands with all the UAENAs. My hands are usually cold, and since the weather was freezing, I think I made a lot of people’s hands cold, too. But after touching so many warm hands, mine became warm, too. I still haven’t washed them.”

    Her love for her fans truly knows no bounds!
