• “Do They Travel by Bus to Music Shows?” 24-Member Girl Group tripleS Snaps a Photo on the Iconic ‘Inkigayo’ Stairs

    Netizens are abuzz over an epic group photo of tripleS.

    On an online community, fans and netizens alike are discussing a recent snapshot of tripleS taken on the famed staircase at ‘Inkigayo,’ where the group performed their latest track, “Girls Never Die.”

    Upon seeing the photo, one netizen humorously asked, “Do they commute to music shows by bus…?”

    Surprisingly, the answer was yes.

    This speculation was confirmed when another netizen shared a video of the girls alighting from a bus to arrive at ‘Music Bank.’

    Others were amazed at how all the members managed to fit on the stairs, with one fan noting it resembled a “classroom group photo.”

    This sparked a playful debate about whether the members felt like they were on a school field trip, given their number is comparable to an entire grade in some schools.

    More reactions include:

    “They look like they are on a school field trip”

    “Can they even divide the parts equally?”

    “I heard each of them gets like one to five seconds in a song”

    “It feels like I’ve become a school principal…”

    “Wow, they are all so pretty though”

    “LOL, it looks like they need to PAY RENT for taking up those stairs”

    “I love their new song”

    “Very refreshing”

    “I’ve never seen any group fill up that entire space before lol”

    “Am I the only one who is a little scared”

    “Do their albums distribute photo cards???”

    “I bet some of them are still awkward with each other even while being in the same group…”

    “I like their performance and the song, though”

    In related news, tripleS recently achieved a milestone by exceeding 100,000 album sales for the first time with ‘ASSEMBLE24.’

  • IU Secretly Watches Her Own Movie in a Theater, Drops Hints About Her Identity, but No One Recognizes Her?!

    IU recently revealed that she watched her own concert film in a public theater, but shockingly, no one recognized her—even when she dropped a hint!

    On February 27, a new video featuring IU was released, showing her inside a car on her way to Daejeon.

    She excitedly shared, “This is a surprise stage greeting for UAENA! I picked this location through a ladder game when I did stage greetings.”

    Previously, IU had let fate decide which city she would visit after her stage greetings. She happily said, “There are UAENAs everywhere I go. Wherever I go, it's a flowery path.” The game ultimately led her to Daejeon.

    IU originally hoped to explore the city, saying, “I wanted to visit Daejeon's pride, Sung Sim Dang, and walk around, but my team said it wouldn’t be possible. The lines are too long, and it’s freezing outside.” She sighed, adding, “So, things turned out this way.”

    Dressed up for the occasion, IU smiled, saying, “I don’t get to meet UAENAs in Daejeon often, so I wanted to make a surprise appearance looking my best.”

    She also joked about enjoying surprise events, adding, “As long as Hanteo oppa drives me safely, I’m happy.”

    But what really caught fans' attention was IU’s unexpected confession—she had secretly watched her concert film in a theater, but no one noticed her! “No one recognized me at all. There weren’t that many people, and it was a weekday… but still! I even gave a hint! she said, sounding both amused and surprised.

    Later, when IU finally appeared at the theater, her fans were overwhelmed with emotion. Some even burst into tears, prompting her to gently say, “You really didn’t expect me to come, right?”

    After wrapping up her stage greeting, IU laughed at herself, saying, “Wait, did I just do a 40-minute one-woman show? I must have talked so much.”

    On her way back to Seoul, IU reflected on the day, sharing, “It was so cold today. I shook hands with all the UAENAs. My hands are usually cold, and since the weather was freezing, I think I made a lot of people’s hands cold, too. But after touching so many warm hands, mine became warm, too. I still haven’t washed them.”

    Her love for her fans truly knows no bounds!
