NewJeans' Danielle mesmerizes with her 'living-doll' visuals at fashion event in Taipei
NewJeans' Danielle recently turned heads with his doll-like appearance. The occasion? An exclusive luxury brand store opening event in Taipei.
On April 26, Danielle flaunted a doll-like appearance in a chic one-piece suede dress. With her hair styled in a ponytail and black high heels completing the ensemble, Danielle exuded elegance and charm.
However, behind the scenes, NewJeans faces internal conflict. The agency is entangled in a dispute with its parent company, HYBE, over alleged "usurping of management rights." Executives, including Min Hee Jin, have been accused of embezzlement.
Min Hee Jin, on the other hand, refutes these claims, asserting that seizing an 80% stake in HYBE's management rights through ADOR(the parent company) is impossible.
Despite these challenges, NewJeans continues with their schedules under HYBE. Recently, they dropped the music video for their new track "Bubble Gum," and fans can look forward to their upcoming single titled "How Sweet."
Lim Ji Yeon Addresses Backlash Over Cheering for Jung Woo Sung Amid His Scandal, "I Didn’t Expect the Public’s Reaction"
Actress Lim Ji Yeon is finally opening up about the unexpected backlash she received after showing support for actor Jung Woo Sung during his controversial return to the public eye.
In an interview on January 23rd, following the end of her drama The Tale of Lady Ok, Lim Ji Yeon spoke candidly about the situation that caused a stir at the 45th Blue Dragon Film Awards in November last year.
At the event, Jung Woo Sung made his public return after facing controversy surrounding an “illegitimate child” with model Moon Ga Bi. While Jung Woo Sung took the stage to apologize, Lim Ji Yeon was seen clapping and cheering for him.
Reflecting on that moment, Lim Ji Yeon shared, "It was a brief moment, so it’s hard to say whether it was right or wrong." She added, "I didn’t expect the public’s reaction. On the other hand, I was cautious since The Tale of Lady Ok was airing at the time."
For those who missed it, Jung Woo Sung and Moon Ga Bi, who had been in a relationship since 2022, revealed last year that they were expecting a child.
The actor took full responsibility for the situation and issued an apology during the awards ceremony, saying, "I’m sorry for causing concern and disappointment to everyone who has shown me love and support. I will bear all the criticism, and I promise to take full responsibility as a father to my son".
However, while Jung Woo Sung addressed the controversy, it was Lim Ji Yeon’s show of support that sparked controversy.
She cheered enthusiastically for Jung Woo Sung, while actress Hye Ri, who was seated next to her, kept a neutral, expressionless face. This led to a wave of criticism from some netizens who questioned Lim Ji Yeon’s reaction.
It’s worth noting that Lim Ji Yeon’s agency, Artist Company, was co-founded by Jung Woo Sung and actor Lee Jung Jae, both of whom currently serve as directors.
Could this connection have influenced Lim Ji Yeon’s public display of support? She’s still processing the response, and fans are curious to know how she’ll handle the fallout moving forward.
