NewJeans' Minji recently opened up about her thoughts on the group’s popularity, sharing how her perspective changed thanks to their fans.

In a new photoshoot and interview with Dazed magazine, Minji showed off her versatile charm, effortlessly pulling off different styles, from bold black and white to soft pastel tones. Her natural elegance and fun personality shined throughout the shoot, capturing everyone’s attention.

During the interview, Minji got candid about how she felt when NewJeans' popularity skyrocketed. She said, "At first, I thought it was too much, more than we deserved. But when I looked into the eyes of Bunnies (NewJeans' fans) during performances, I saw how sincere their support and love were."

She went on to explain how this shifted her mindset: "At some point, I realized that it wasn’t right for me to think that way. There are people who love me no matter what, and it started to feel like there wasn't enough time to waste just worrying." This realization helped her see things differently and motivated her to keep pushing forward.

Minji also shared how this connection with fans made her want to become someone they can continue to be proud of, saying, "So now I want to work even harder to become someone I can be proud of, no matter where I am." She then added, “Saying 'thank you' doesn’t feel enough to express how grateful I am,” showing her deep appreciation for their love and support.

Fans can find the full pictorial and interview in the November issue of Dazed, as well as on their official website and social media channels.

Minji’s heartfelt words are a reminder of how much her fans mean to her, and her dedication to always giving her best shines through!

Actor Lee Min Ho recently shared an unforgettable and embarrassing moment from his early career, revealing how he became a “falling star” at his first Baeksang Arts Awards.

On the December 25th episode of You Quiz on the Block (Episode 274), Lee Min Ho made a guest appearance and reflected on his rise to fame.

The actor, known for his iconic role as Goo Jun Pyo in Boys Over Flowers, won the Best New Actor award at the Baeksang Arts Awards, but it wasn’t just his victory that grabbed attention.

Lee Min Ho recalled, "I was attending the Baeksang for the first time, and I was so excited. Since I wasn’t going as Goo Jun Pyo, but as Lee Min Ho, I styled my hair in a perm and was ready to go." However, things took an unexpected turn when he tripped and fell on the red carpet.

He sighed, recalling, "That day, I fell. I fell and created so many memes. Even now, I look back and think, 'How did I walk that quickly on the red carpet?'"

Laughing at his own clumsiness, he admitted, "I was moving at the speed of light, no composure, no focus. Honestly, more than the joy of winning the award, that day was chaotic and so embarrassing for me."

Though his win was a highlight, Lee Min Ho humorously shared that the incident of tripping overshadowed the excitement of his achievement.

It’s safe to say that while the fall became a funny meme, it also became a lesson in humility for the actor, and a moment that fans still remember to this day.
