NewJeans' Minji recently shared a "cute worry" about her age gap with Eunwoo, sparking laughter and warm moments on The Return of Superman.

In the November 27th episode, Minji met Kim Junho’s two sons, Eunwoo and Jeongwoo, and helped them prepare kimchi. During the segment, Minji shared her dilemma about the 17-year age difference with Eunwoo, revealing, "I’ve been thinking about it for a month before the shoot. Should I be called 'noona' (older sister) or 'imo' (aunt) by Eunwoo?" Her funny concern got a laugh from everyone around her.

Thankfully, Eunwoo quickly put her mind at ease. When Kim Junho asked him, "Do you want to call her noona, or do you want to call her imo?" Eunwoo answered right away, "Noona!"

Eunwoo then asked Minji, "What’s your name?" and when she told him, "I’m Minji," he excitedly called out, "Minji noona!" showing off his sweet charm.

The cute moments didn’t stop there—Eunwoo and Jeongwoo instantly sat on Minji’s lap when she invited them, surprising Kim Junho, who said, "They usually have a bit of stranger anxiety and don’t go to people easily at first..."

Actress Lim Ji Yeon is finally opening up about the unexpected backlash she received after showing support for actor Jung Woo Sung during his controversial return to the public eye.

In an interview on January 23rd, following the end of her drama The Tale of Lady Ok, Lim Ji Yeon spoke candidly about the situation that caused a stir at the 45th Blue Dragon Film Awards in November last year.

At the event, Jung Woo Sung made his public return after facing controversy surrounding an “illegitimate child” with model Moon Ga Bi. While Jung Woo Sung took the stage to apologize, Lim Ji Yeon was seen clapping and cheering for him.

Reflecting on that moment, Lim Ji Yeon shared, "It was a brief moment, so it’s hard to say whether it was right or wrong." She added, "I didn’t expect the public’s reaction. On the other hand, I was cautious since The Tale of Lady Ok was airing at the time."

For those who missed it, Jung Woo Sung and Moon Ga Bi, who had been in a relationship since 2022, revealed last year that they were expecting a child.

The actor took full responsibility for the situation and issued an apology during the awards ceremony, saying, "I’m sorry for causing concern and disappointment to everyone who has shown me love and support. I will bear all the criticism, and I promise to take full responsibility as a father to my son".

However, while Jung Woo Sung addressed the controversy, it was Lim Ji Yeon’s show of support that sparked controversy.

She cheered enthusiastically for Jung Woo Sung, while actress Hye Ri, who was seated next to her, kept a neutral, expressionless face. This led to a wave of criticism from some netizens who questioned Lim Ji Yeon’s reaction.

It’s worth noting that Lim Ji Yeon’s agency, Artist Company, was co-founded by Jung Woo Sung and actor Lee Jung Jae, both of whom currently serve as directors.

Could this connection have influenced Lim Ji Yeon’s public display of support? She’s still processing the response, and fans are curious to know how she’ll handle the fallout moving forward.
