Girls’ Generation member and actress YoonA recently opened up about traveling solo for the first time, sharing a heartfelt and relatable story that caught fans’ attention.

On January 7, YoonA appeared on Hyeri’s YouTube channel, where the two stars had a casual and honest chat. During their conversation, YoonA revealed how stepping out of her comfort zone gave her a new perspective on life.

"I recently traveled alone for the first time", YoonA began. "I went to take a flight by myself, and so many thoughts crossed my mind. The fact that I had never traveled solo before really made me reflect. I felt like there are still so many things I don’t know."

She went on to share her unique experience, saying, "I drove by myself, took the flight alone, and even rode the airport bus. It felt so unfamiliar because no one cared about me at all, but I was the only one feeling super self-conscious. It made me realize I’ve been restricting myself in a lot of ways".

YoonA admitted that the solo trip gave her a fresh perspective. "It was such a simple thing, but it felt so meaningful to me. I started thinking about how I could live more freely."

Meanwhile, YoonA is gearing up for an exciting year ahead. She’s set to star in the upcoming tvN drama The Tyrant’s Chef, which is scheduled to air next year.

Fans are also eagerly awaiting her reunion with Exit director Lee Sang Geun in the highly anticipated film The Devil Moved In, slated for release in 2025.

YoonA’s story has inspired fans, showing that even a superstar can grow and learn from the little moments in life.

Former S.E.S member Shoo (Yoo Soo Young) warmed hearts as she shared a touching moment with her twin daughters—taking them to the same wholesale market where she once worked during a difficult time in her life.

On May 8, Shoo posted several photos on Instagram showing her spending time with her twin daughters, Ra Hee and Ra Yul, at the Dongdaemun wholesale market. In the caption, she wrote, “Did everyone enjoy the holiday? I feel like I made a memory I’ll never forget for the rest of my life.”

The photos showed Shoo and her daughters smiling brightly while eating and shopping together. Her daughters, now visibly grown up, were even seen wearing similar shoes and clothes as their mom.

Shoo opened up about a painful chapter in her past. “When I was struggling, I once sold clothes I got from Dongdaemun with the help of a friend,” she shared. “I used to go there from night to early morning, picking up fleece clothes, hairpins, and shoes, thinking, ‘My kids would love this if I brought them here.’”

Now that her daughters are older, Shoo finally fulfilled that dream. “We laughed so much while shopping. We bought hairpins, socks, and clothes together,” she said. “They’ve grown so much—they can even wear the same things as me.”

Reflecting on the experience, she added, “Memories of my past flashed before my eyes. I told them how I used to work late at night, carrying heavy bags and walking around for 10 hours straight.”

Shoo emotionally concluded, “I was so happy to show my kids the nighttime world I once worked in.”

Fans who remember Shoo’s twins from The Return of Superman were touched to see how much they’ve grown. Shoo, now a proud mom of three, continues to update fans through her TV appearances and social media, showing her strength as both a mother and former idol.
