Ahn Yujin of IVE shared some heartfelt memories from her Produce48 days, revealing the shocking reality of the harsh comments she faced.

On January 15th, Ahn Yujin and Jang Wonyoung appeared as guests on tvN’s You Quiz on the Block, where they caught up and shared some personal stories.

Ahn Yujin opened up about her time on the survival show, saying, "What I still remember is that Produce48 was my first real trial. I thought I was really loved and that people liked me, but when I went on that program, I was shocked to realize that there are people in this world who dislike me".

She continued, "In our daily lives, there aren't many people who directly tell us, 'I hate you.' It took time for me to accept that some people don’t like me, even though I didn’t do anything wrong."

Ahn Yujin also explained the pressure she felt during the competition, revealing, "Every week, the rankings were decided, and we had to line up in order. I started to feel trapped in that (internet) world."

She added, "Sometimes I wouldn’t get support, and there would be people who hated me. It was a situation where my evaluation could be viewed 24/7. Thinking, 'How do others see me?' created fear."

Jang Wonyoung added, "For me, it can be summed up in one sentence: I did it because I was young and didn’t know better."

When talking about her recent world tour, Ahn Yujin shared, "I tend to get nervous, especially when it's a stage I really want to do well on. I get even more nervous."

But she also shared how she calms herself, saying, "What I always think is that all these people like me. Then it's so easy. With that mindset, I think 'Everyone here? They're all mine!' and it makes me excited and happy", she laughed.

Finally, Ahn Yujin expressed her goals for 2025, saying, "I hope to stay healthy. I want to work hard on my schedule and take good care of myself, and I hope everyone has a healthy 2025. That's my wish."

Ahn Yujin’s honest reflections remind fans of the tough journey idols face behind the scenes.

Goo Hye Sun surprised fans by wearing a hat during her appearance on Radio Star – and there’s a funny reason behind it!

On the January 15th episode of MBC's variety show Radio Star, Goo Hye Sun joined former baseball player Choo Shin Soo, actor Kwak Si Yang, and culinary researcher Yoon Nam No, as they discussed their second acts in life under the theme "My Second Act: Clear Skies."

During the show, Goo Hye Sun opened up about her skincare routine, revealing that she brings a lot of oil blotting papers with her.

She explained, "I have very acne-prone skin. So if I don’t have oil blotting papers, my makeup gets completely wiped off."

As the conversation continued, Seojanghoon noticed Goo Hye Sun wearing a hat while letting her long hair down and asked, “If you're getting oily, wouldn't it be better to style the sides of your hair back?”

Goo Hye Sun's response? She revealed that she had planned to wash her hair that day, but "the boiler broke, so I couldn’t wash it. That’s why I wore a hat."

She then shared an amusing detail, saying, "The PD asked me to take off the hat and film without it, but right now, I can't take it off."

Fans couldn’t help but laugh at her candidness and relatable reason for keeping the hat on – sometimes, things don’t go as planned, and a hat can save the day!
