Actor Song Kang is all set to swap his acting hat for a military helmet. He recently took to his fan cafe to share a heartfelt letter, expressing his mixed feelings about his upcoming enlistment.

Kicking off with a candid confession, "I'm not sure where to start," Song Kang didn't hold back. He acknowledged the news of his enlistment, which fans would have caught wind of, and expressed his deep gratitude to his fan club, Songpyeon.

He reminisced about his journey since his debut in 2017, saying, "I feel like I exist because you all are always there. So many memories, time is passing by like a film strip."

He also shared a sweet ritual he's been following lately - writing a gratitude diary before bed. He's been counting his blessings, especially the love and support from Songpyeon. From birthdays and anniversaries to fan meetings, he feels his 20s have been filled with meaningful moments, thanks to his fans.

Song Kang reassured his fans, saying, "I won't be by your side for a while now, but time will come back quickly, so I hope to see you again with a grateful and healthy heart. I hope to see a happier me than now when that time comes."

He also revealed his plans for his time in the military, one of which is learning a new language. He's determined not to let the year and a half go to waste and hopes that his fans will also spend this time doing what they love and finding themselves. He promised to return healthily, carefully, and happily.

In the meantime, Song Kang is scheduled to enlist as an active duty soldier in the army on April 2nd. His agency, Namoo Actors, announced that there will be no official event on the day of his enlistment due to safety concerns.

They urged fans to continue showing their warm love and support as Song Kang fulfills his national defense duty and promised that he will return more mature and healthy.

Former AOA member Kwon Min Ah—who opened up in the past about being bullied—has once again shared a deep and emotional message on social media, leaving fans feeling concerned and sending love.

On April 23, Min Ah took to her Instagram to write:
“I don’t know if I’ve become completely twisted, or if I’m just scared. Maybe I’m afraid the same thing will happen again. Everything feels scary. And I want to say something sharp to myself too—get it together.”

Along with the message, she posted a selfie where she wore a red knit top, had her hair half-up, and showed a soft pout with a calm expression. Though her outfit and style looked casual, the mood of her words felt heavy.

Fans aren’t sure if Min Ah was directing the message toward someone else or simply speaking to herself. The final line, “get it together,” sounds like a tough love reminder to herself—but also makes many wonder what she’s been going through recently.

People quickly filled the comment section with supportive messages, telling her to stay strong and reminding her she’s not alone.

Min Ah debuted with AOA in 2012 and left the group in 2019. In 2020, she made headlines when she revealed that she had been bullied during her time in the group. The confession caused a huge reaction in the K-pop world, leading to conversations about idols’ mental health and group dynamics.

Recently, she surprised fans when it was revealed she began working as a manager at a dermatology clinic, showing a new side of her life outside of the entertainment spotlight.

Fans continue to cheer her on, hoping she finds peace and happiness in whatever path she chooses next.
