• EXO's Baekhyun Reveals His Struggles with Sasaengs: "I’ve Dealt with Them for 13 Years"

    EXO member Baekhyun opened up about his tough experiences with sasaeng fans during his 13 years in the music industry.

    In a recent video on the YouTube channel 'The K-Star Next Door', he shared some shocking stories. During the video, host Jonathan asked Baekhyun, "You've said you've been through everything living as an idol for 13 years, right?"

    Baekhyun replied, "I’ve even talked with sasaengs and went out to catch them. I've had to deal with the police and thieves quite a bit. "

    He added, "I received a lot of phone calls, and when you get too many calls, it makes you sensitive and drives you crazy. They say strange things, and I wish they would get their act together and wash their faces."

    He added, "When I became independent, the security was somewhat decent. I chose a place because it was good, but they still broke in. "

    He added, "I caught one person because they seemed suspicious. I asked how they got in, and they came out from between the cars in the underground parking lot."

    Baekhyun's experiences remind fans of the challenges idols face, not just in their careers but also in their personal lives.

  • Kwon Min Ah worries fans with emotional post about fear and self-blame: “Everything feels scary, I need to get it together”

    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.
