On the 20th, their agency, BTOB Company, officially announced the release of the second song "Be Alright" from BTOB's BECOMING PROJECT, along with the promotion schedule.

The promotional image depicts a house lit up by bright lights on a snowy night, with white snow gently covering the trees and creating a picturesque, cozy year-end atmosphere, which raises anticipation for the new song.

According to the promotion schedule, individual concept photos will be released on the 21st, group concept photos on the 22nd, and a live clip teaser on the 24th, all building excitement for the comeback.

"Be Alright" is a year-end healing song blending BTOB's sweet harmonies and sincere emotions. It delivers a message of hope, conveying that even through struggles and sadness, one can smile as long as there are people to stand by them.

The BECOMING PROJECT is the first project featuring BTOB Company’s four members—Seo Eunkwang, Lee Minhyuk, Im Hyunsik, and Peniel. The name BECOMING (shortened to BECOM) signifies the process of their works coming together as one album, while showing that the members, who have showcased their individual charms through solo and unit activities, will continue to carry on BTOB's unique emotional style.

Following the pre-release track "불씨 (Please Stay)" last month, the second song, "Be Alright," will be released on the 25th. A new digital single will also be released in December, and in 2025, a final album combining all the songs will be released to complete the BECOMING PROJECT.

Actress Kang Ye Won got emotional as she opened up about why she took a break from broadcasting and why she’s finally giving love a chance.

On the March 3 episode of tvN STORY’s Can I Love Now?, Kang Ye Won made her debut as a new participant looking for romance.

During the broadcast, she revealed that negative online comments had deeply affected her. "I used to cry all the time reading comments. I get hurt easily. What might be a small wound for others feels like a huge blow to me," she shared, expressing the stress she faced from malicious remarks.

She also admitted that at one point, she wanted to leave everything behind. "I kept thinking, ‘How long do I have to keep working this hard?’ and it became overwhelming."

She added, "At one point, I thought, ‘I should just quit everything and move to the countryside,’ and that idea actually gave me peace," she confessed.

When it came to dating, Kang Ye Won shared that she had always been content watching others fall in love.

"It never worked out for me. I wasn’t the type to ask for introductions either. I just found comfort in living as an observer. Maybe it’s my fate. I’m fearful, and I lack courage. If I feel like someone might hurt me, I block them out from the start," she admitted.

However, the actress revealed that she ultimately joined Can I Love Now? for her father. "My dad was born in 1943. He had me late in life, and his health isn’t great."

She added, "I realized that if I continue living alone like this, I won’t be able to give my parents any hope until the moment they pass away," she said with tears in her eyes. "My perspective on life has changed. I no longer think just about myself, but about my parents."

Kang Ye Won’s heartfelt confession touched many viewers, leaving fans rooting for her to find happiness.
