SHINee's Taemin shared heartfelt words with his fellow member Jonghyun.

On the sunny afternoon of May 26th, SHINee rocked their 6th solo concert encore show, "SHINee WORLD VI [PERFECT ILLUMINATION: SHINee'S BACK]," at Incheon Inspire Arena.

For three days straight, starting from May 24th, fans flocked to witness this encore gig, packing every corner of the arena, showing SHINee's massive fan base.

Kicking off with a mashup of their greatest hits, the boys delivered a jaw-dropping performance, including tracks from their latest album "HARD," released last year. It was a showcase of their top-notch live skills.

Before the encore, they sang "An Encore," and that's when Taemin got teary. His emotions overflowed, especially during Jonghyun's part.

He shared, "When it hit me, I thought of Jonghyun-hyung and wondered, 'Are you doing alright?' When I opened my eyes, it was like magic, so beautiful. I didn't expect to get so emotional. It felt like a dream. It was touching."

Key chimed in, "I was fighting back tears too, but I held it in."

Minho nodded, "I was overwhelmed too, but I had to snap out of it for the encore. I teased Taemin a bit to lighten the mood."

Reflecting on the encore, Key said, "Time flew by. It feels like just a moment ago we started. We've had our worries, but we've had fun. I hope you all felt the same. Let's keep this going, seeing each other often. If you treasure us like precious mint-colored stars, it'll give us strength to shine even brighter. We'll give it our all."

He continued, "Today, I can't help but think of someone (Jonghyun) on their own journey. It's not a sad story; I believe we're always together. We'll say our goodbyes as the five of us."

Onew added, "Your love means everything. We've had our ups and downs, and there'll be more, but please keep loving all five of us."

Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

"It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
