• NewJeans Surprises Fans with Big Appetites: "We Eat More Chicken than Soccer Players"

    The group NewJeans surprised everyone with their big appetites.

    On the 2nd, a video called "NewJeans Getting Ready for Channel Fifteen" was posted on the YouTube channel 'Channel Fifteen Ya.' The video showed NewJeans sharing different stories.

    Hyein, who couldn't join NewJeans' activities for a while because of a foot injury, recently came back. Minji said, "She wanted to join, but we told her to wait until she was fully healed," and Hyein added, "I felt both sad and relieved. At first, I was down, but honestly, it was comfortable and fun. I watched the older members' stage and thought, 'So pretty. You made history,' while I relaxed."

    She continued, "We practiced the choreography as five, but because of me, they had to practice another version. I'm sorry for that."

    NewJeans then played a game to win food and said, "We're not usually good at games, but since food was at stake, we did well." PD Na Young-seok asked, "Do you hang out together as a group?"

    The members answered, "About 3-4 years ago, when we were trainees, we went to Sokcho and ate a lot. We were so full we couldn't stand and were lying down. We decided to stop eating but then went out for ice cream. It was really fun. But since debuting, we haven't been able to go."

    NewJeans showed their unexpected big eater side. Minji recalled their trainee days, saying, "After the monthly evaluations, we went out for chicken. There were soccer players next to us. When we were about to pay, the lady said, 'You ate more than the soccer players.' I was embarrassed," and Hani replied, "Why be embarrassed? Eating well is a good thing. I was proud."
