• tripleS's Kim Yoo Yeon talks about receiving their first ever paycheck, "I treated the members to a meal"

    tripleS revealed they received a settlement similar to a mid-level manager's salary at a big company.

    On the July 13th episode of MBC's 'Point of Omniscient Interfere,' the 24-member girl group tripleS talked about their earnings.

    Kim Yoo Yeon and Kim Na Kyung from tripleS, known for their large number of members, appeared on the show.

    Jun Hyun Moo asked, "Is there any special meaning behind each member having a number?" Kim Na Kyung explained, "We weren't revealed all at once. Each member joined the dorm one by one, and the numbers were given in the order we arrived."

    Jun Hyun Moo mentioned, "I heard tripleS received their first settlement last year, and it was like a mid-level manager's salary at a major company."

    Kim Yoo Yeon confirmed, "We got our first settlement early last year," adding, "I treated the members to a meat meal." Solbi shared, "When I was active, we got cash in envelopes," drawing attention.

    Kim Yoo Yeon, born in 2001, was introduced as the eldest sister. The youngest member, Seo Ah, born in 2010, is in her second year of middle school.

    When asked if the older sister is strict, Kim Na Kyung replied, "She may look like that, but she's not that kind of person," making everyone laugh. She added, "She may seem cold, but she takes good care of the younger members."

    Song Eun Yi commented, "Na Kyung looks familiar. I heard she's BB's sister." Kim Na Kyung introduced herself as "'Night Yanggeng' famous BB's sister." She then performed 'Night Yanggeng' live. Yang Se Hyung remarked, "Your voice sounds similar," expressing amazement.

    On the show, tripleS members were seen checking their numbers when entering the dorm, which caught attention. Someone mentioned, "Living in the dorm with them feels like having 24 students," making everyone laugh.

    Because of their large number, tripleS members had to take separate elevators to avoid exceeding the capacity.

    They live in three separate houses, and due to the large number, personal items were labeled with names. Someone mentioned, "When a member finds a good item, they post it in the group chat, and then everyone buys it together," drawing attention.

  • 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!
