Singer Bada from S.E.S. has once again expressed her support for NewJeans.
On November 20, Bada appeared as a guest on KBS Cool FM’s Lee Eun Ji’s Gayo Plaza, where she shared stories about her career, family, and upcoming projects.
Bada talked about her winter concert, The Ocean, scheduled for December 7 and 8. She said, “I’ve been doing this concert for 15 years. Originally, I didn’t perform many S.E.S. songs during my solo concerts because I wanted to establish myself as the artist Bada. For over a decade, I focused on my independent career, but these days, S.E.S.’s music has become popular again. Fans miss it, so I’ve started singing S.E.S. songs as their lead vocalist. Our summer concert sold out in a day, which even surprised my company. This time, we added a second show.”
Bada revealed that she covered NewJeans' "Supernatural" during her previous concert. She shared, “I thought I was going to collapse performing that song! But the audience wondered, ‘How is she pulling this off alone?’ I practiced a lot because the song is so good. It reminded me of the S.E.S. vibe, so I really enjoyed it,” adding, “It’s my way of supporting NewJeans.”
She hinted at more covers for the upcoming concert, saying, “Expect some surprises! I promise to relieve everyone’s stress. If you want to recharge for the new year, come join us. Tickets are almost sold out.”
Bada also shared an adorable story about her daughter Lua, who is a fan of the band TOUCHED. “Through filming KBS2’s The Return of Superman, Lua finally got to meet them. My daughter has her own unique energy and loves all kinds of music. One day, her dad introduced her to TOUCHED, and since then, she’s been asking to watch them over and over,” Bada said. She added, “Recently, she’s been humming their song Dust to Dust. She’s only four, but it’s amazing to hear her singing that around the house!”
Bada has consistently shown support for NewJeans and ADOR CEO Min Hee Jin, even amid recent controversies over Min Hee Jin’s resignation as a board director at ADOR and her legal disputes with HYBE. Bada previously shared a heartfelt message on Instagram, writing, “These young girls are so brave, putting their lives, precious time, and dreams out there for the world to see. It’s such a tough path. I pray for all K-pop idols, including NewJeans, to endure this period well, grow beautifully, and find happiness in their unique ways.”
On the same day, Min Hee Jin announced her resignation from ADOR’s board of directors. She stated her intent to terminate her shareholder agreement with HYBE and hold the company legally accountable for alleged contract violations and illegal actions.
Bada’s unwavering support for NewJeans and her encouraging words for K-pop idols showcase her dedication to the industry and its younger generation. Fans are eager to see her upcoming performances and hear her powerful voice on stage.
