IVE's Ahn Yujin has made waves in the entertainment industry and is now set to make a splash at the prestigious Baeksang Arts Awards.

She's been nominated for the Best Female Variety Performer at the 60th Baeksang Arts Awards, a category that has seen the likes of Yoo Jae Suk, Kang Ho Dong, Shin Dong Yup, and Lee Young Ja as its winners.

Since its inception in 1986, no female idol has ever won this trophy, making Ahn Yujin's nomination a significant event.

Ahn Yujin's track record in the entertainment industry is impressive and award-worthy. She shone in 'Earth Arcade' and 'Crime Scene Returns' last year, exceeding expectations and creating a new entertainment character.

Her performances were not only dazzling but also showed her ability to immerse herself fully in various roles, earning her the title of a 'Surefire Character of Entertainment'.

Her dedication to both her main gig in IVE and her entertainment activities has been commendable, raising expectations for her win.

The anticipation for Ahn Yujin's potential win is high, but the competition isn't easy. Renowned entertainers like Kim Sook, Lee Soo Ji, Jang Do Yeon, and Hong Jin Kyung have also been nominated for the award.

Despite the tough competition, Ahn Yujin's nomination as an active idol among entertainers is already a significant achievement.

Whether she wins or not, her nomination gives us a glimpse into her entertainment activities, and we can't wait to see what she does next.

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.
