Rapper Swings is stepping into the world of acting!

On January 11, Swings surprised fans by sharing a video of himself practicing a scene from the critically acclaimed film Burning (2018, directed by Lee Chang Dong) at an acting academy. Swings delivered an intense performance while analyzing the scene with passion and depth.

The day before, on January 10, Swings had already hinted at this new chapter. He shared, “I’ve been taking acting classes for a month now, and I’m doing this every day. It’s so much fun! I’ll share clips occasionally, so please look forward to them.”

What caught even more attention was when Swings addressed rumors about Squid Game 2. He reposted an article titled “Swings Enrolls in Acting School After Missing Out on Squid Game 2 Casting” and clarified, “I’m really grateful, but actually, I started acting lessons a month before that. So it’s not as urgent as it sounds.”

This comes after Squid Game 2 director Hwang Dong Hyuk recently revealed that T.O.P (Choi Seung Hyun) was cast as the character Thanos. He also admitted, “I considered friends like Swings for the role but couldn’t fully trust their acting ability.”

While netizens speculated that Swings’ acting lessons might have been fueled by this missed opportunity, the rapper is clearly moving forward with determination.

Fans are already cheering him on, with comments like, “Swings is proving there’s nothing he can’t do,” “His commitment to learning is inspiring,” “Let’s aim for Hollywood next!” and “We’re rooting for your success!”

Could we be seeing Swings take on major acting roles soon? Only time will tell, but his journey is already turning heads!

Former AOA member Kwon Min Ah—who opened up in the past about being bullied—has once again shared a deep and emotional message on social media, leaving fans feeling concerned and sending love.

On April 23, Min Ah took to her Instagram to write:
“I don’t know if I’ve become completely twisted, or if I’m just scared. Maybe I’m afraid the same thing will happen again. Everything feels scary. And I want to say something sharp to myself too—get it together.”

Along with the message, she posted a selfie where she wore a red knit top, had her hair half-up, and showed a soft pout with a calm expression. Though her outfit and style looked casual, the mood of her words felt heavy.

Fans aren’t sure if Min Ah was directing the message toward someone else or simply speaking to herself. The final line, “get it together,” sounds like a tough love reminder to herself—but also makes many wonder what she’s been going through recently.

People quickly filled the comment section with supportive messages, telling her to stay strong and reminding her she’s not alone.

Min Ah debuted with AOA in 2012 and left the group in 2019. In 2020, she made headlines when she revealed that she had been bullied during her time in the group. The confession caused a huge reaction in the K-pop world, leading to conversations about idols’ mental health and group dynamics.

Recently, she surprised fans when it was revealed she began working as a manager at a dermatology clinic, showing a new side of her life outside of the entertainment spotlight.

Fans continue to cheer her on, hoping she finds peace and happiness in whatever path she chooses next.
