    TWICE's Chaeyoung opened up about her changing double eyelids.

    On July 13, Chaeyoung appeared in a video titled "A Message from Strawberry Princess Chaeyoung to ONCE?" on Esquire's official channel. ONCE is the name of TWICE's fan club.

    Esquire mentioned her "big, round eyes and the double eyelids that create a unique look." Chaeyoung explained, "As I get older, the fat on my eyelids is decreasing, making my eye hollows more noticeable. People say I look more like my mom now."

    Chaeyoung even measured her eyes, saying, "The left one is 14.6mm," and confirmed that the right eye was the same length.

    Agreeing with the description of having a "mole that creates an ethereal atmosphere," Chaeyoung added, "My signature look includes my lips and a mole." She also noted that her lips are 21.7mm thick.

    Chaeyoung shared updates on her recent activities, saying, "We're getting ready for our Japan concert tour in July. I'm trying to eat well and work hard."

    TWICE started their fifth world tour, "READY TO BE in JAPAN SPECIAL," with concerts at Osaka's Yanmar Stadium Nagai on July 13 and 14.

    The tour will continue with performances at Tokyo's Ajinomoto Stadium on July 20 and 21, and Kanagawa's Nissan Stadium on July 27 and 28. TWICE will be the first overseas female artists to perform at Nissan Stadium.

    Before their Nissan Stadium shows, TWICE will release their fifth Japanese studio album, "DIVE," on July 17. This will be their first Japanese album since "Celebrate" almost two years ago.

    BTS member Jimin made history at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS, becoming the first solo artist ever to win the prestigious Visa Fan’s Choice of the Year award.

    On November 22, Jimin was honored with the Fan’s Choice of the Year award at the 2024 MAMA AWARDS JAPAN, held at the Kyocera Dome in Osaka, Japan. This marks a huge milestone in his career, especially considering his ongoing military service.

    Jimin made history as the first solo artist to win the Fan’s Choice of the Year award, a category that BTS had dominated for six years since its debut in 2018.

    In addition to this achievement, Jimin also took home the Fan’s Choice Grand Prize, making him a two-time winner at this year’s awards.

    Although Jimin couldn't attend the ceremony due to his military service, his name was met with loud cheers from fans when announced.

    His incredible win continues to prove his global influence as a solo artist. Jimin had also won Best Male Artist at the 2023 MAMA AWARDS, marking back-to-back wins at the event.

    The MAMA AWARDS praised Jimin for his groundbreaking achievements, saying, “As the first K-pop solo artist to reach 4 billion streams and set the longest-running #1 record for a Korean artist, Jimin has proven his influence as a world-class artist and global pop star.”

    Jimin's win also made him the first solo artist to claim a grand prize at the MAMA AWARDS in 10 years, with his achievement sparking excitement worldwide.

    On X (formerly Twitter), the hashtag “CONGRATULATIONS JIMIN” topped the trends, while “우리지민이상받았네” (Our Jimin Got the Award) reached the #1 spot in Korea.

    Jimin’s ongoing success continues to shine even during his military service. He was also recently named Best K-pop at the 2024 MTV Europe Music Awards and continues to be recognized for his charitable efforts, including a recent donation of 100 million KRW to the National Defense Soldier and Veteran Love Fund.
