Former SS501 member and actor Kim Hyun Joong has taken on a new role - as a farmer.

On May 1, Kim Hyun Joong shared a message on his social networking service, saying, "Rural life that started by chance."

In the accompanying photo, Kim Hyun Joong is seen wearing a hat designed to block the sunlight, looking every bit the part of a typical farmer.

Kim Hyun Joong expressed his respect for those who work sincerely in agriculture, saying, "I respect those who are engaged in agriculture."

He added, "Please check out my rural story on YouTube. When the corn grows, I will share it with my subscribers."

Netizens responded with comments such as "I hope your farming content does well" and "Looking forward to the corn."

Meanwhile, Kim Hyun Joong has faced several legal battles in the past. In 2014, he was embroiled in assault allegations from his former girlfriend and a paternity lawsuit regarding a child his former girlfriend gave birth to.

He was acquitted of assault charges as his cellphone provided crucial evidence. However, the child was confirmed to be his through paternity testing.

In March 2017, while serving in the military, Kim Hyun Joong was caught driving under the influence, stirring controversy once again.

Debuting with the group SS501 in 2005, Kim Hyun Joong is currently active as a solo singer and actor. Last year in February, he also released his third studio album, 'MY SUN.'

As Kim Hyun Joong continues to share updates about his new rural life, fans are eagerly awaiting more stories and are sending their love and support to the singer.

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.
