YG Entertainment's fresh-faced girl group, 'BabyMonster', has finally made their grand debut as a full seven-member squad with the addition of Ahyeon.

On April 1st, in the YG Entertainment headquarters located in Mapo-gu, Seoul, Ahyeon shared her journey during an interview celebrating the release of their debut mini album 'BabyMonster (BABYMONS7ER)'.

She confessed, "It was quite a mental challenge. I put all my energy into getting better, kept up with my workouts at home, and made sure to eat properly."

Ahyeon expressed, "I was eager to get back on my feet quickly and rejoin the group. I never had second thoughts about coming back." She added, "During my time off, the support and encouragement from the members and fans were invaluable. I'm now fully recovered and thrilled to be able to stand before everyone again."

BabyMonster, initially a six-member group without Ahyeon, dropped their first track 'Batter Up' last November.

They continued to roll out music as a six-piece until 'Stuck In The Middle' in February this year. Both songs have been revamped to feature all seven members in this album.

Asa chimed in, "The six-member version somehow felt incomplete. With Ahyeon joining us, it feels like we're finally whole." She added, "We really hope the fans enjoy the seven-member version."

BabyMonster marks YG's first girl group launch in seven years since Blackpink. It's also a comeback project for the overall producer, Yang Hyun Suk. The group is made up of seven members, Ruka, Pharita, Asa, Ahyeon, Rami, Rora, and Chiquita, who were chosen through their own survival program.

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
