Actor Kang Hoon's latest photoshoot has just been unveiled.

Kang Hoon recently wrapped up a photoshoot and interview for L'Officiel YK Edition. In the shoot, he displayed a range of styles, from casual outfits to bold patterns and bright colors, perfectly capturing a romantic autumn vibe. His intense gaze and creative poses with unique props showcased his diverse charms.

In the interview, Kang Hoon talked about his upcoming role in the Genie TV drama 'To My Hae-ri', which starts airing on September 23.

The drama is a romance about healing emotional wounds between newscaster Eun-ho (played by Shin Hye Sun) and her ex-boyfriend Hyun-oh (played by Lee Jin Wook). Kang Hoon plays Kang Joo-yeon, a model student and newscaster who is inexperienced with love.

Kang Hoon shared, “As soon as I confirmed my role, I joined an announcer academy. My character went to all-boys schools and a military academy, so he didn’t have many chances to meet women. Since I was in a sports team when I was younger, I could relate a bit to this.” He discussed how he prepared for his role.

When asked about the appeal of 'To My Hae-ri', he said, “It’s interesting to see how the characters’ emotional wounds and empty spaces in their hearts heal over time.” He also mentioned, “I’ve always wanted to work with Shin Hye Sun and Lee Jin Wook. They are not only amazing actors but also very kind and supportive, which has been a big motivation for me.”

Former AOA member Kwon Min Ah—who opened up in the past about being bullied—has once again shared a deep and emotional message on social media, leaving fans feeling concerned and sending love.

On April 23, Min Ah took to her Instagram to write:
“I don’t know if I’ve become completely twisted, or if I’m just scared. Maybe I’m afraid the same thing will happen again. Everything feels scary. And I want to say something sharp to myself too—get it together.”

Along with the message, she posted a selfie where she wore a red knit top, had her hair half-up, and showed a soft pout with a calm expression. Though her outfit and style looked casual, the mood of her words felt heavy.

Fans aren’t sure if Min Ah was directing the message toward someone else or simply speaking to herself. The final line, “get it together,” sounds like a tough love reminder to herself—but also makes many wonder what she’s been going through recently.

People quickly filled the comment section with supportive messages, telling her to stay strong and reminding her she’s not alone.

Min Ah debuted with AOA in 2012 and left the group in 2019. In 2020, she made headlines when she revealed that she had been bullied during her time in the group. The confession caused a huge reaction in the K-pop world, leading to conversations about idols’ mental health and group dynamics.

Recently, she surprised fans when it was revealed she began working as a manager at a dermatology clinic, showing a new side of her life outside of the entertainment spotlight.

Fans continue to cheer her on, hoping she finds peace and happiness in whatever path she chooses next.
