MAMAMOO’s Wheein opened up about the ups and downs of being a free agent.

On the February 14 episode of KBS2’s The Seasons – Lee Young Ji’s Rainbow, Wheein appeared as a guest and shared her honest thoughts on going solo after parting ways with her former agency.

She revealed, "Now that I’m a free agent, I feel like a free spirit. Thankfully, many companies have reached out to me, but I want to take my time and make the right choice."

Wheein then spoke about the biggest pros and cons of her new career path. "The best part? The money! Since all the earnings come straight to me, that’s a huge plus."

But she admitted that being independent isn’t always easy. "The hard part is that I have to handle everything myself. Even small things, like renting a car, aren’t as convenient anymore."

When asked what she’s looking for in a new agency, she explained, "I want a company that respects me and understands work-life balance. I love making music, but proper rest is just as important. Before, I didn’t have much time to rest, so I really value that now."

Wheein also made a confident pitch to potential agencies, saying, "I can do all genres. I don’t limit myself—I have a unique voice, I specialize in R&B, I even rap sometimes, and I perform a lot of band music too."

With a shy smile, she added, "I take good care of my staff and value personal connections. I’ve been working with the same people for 8 to 10 years, and they appreciate that about me."

Fans are excited to see where Wheein will go next and what new music she’ll bring in the future!

Actor Jung Hae In is finding himself in a very awkward situation over his social media following, and even his good friend Lee Jong Suk has shared his thoughts on the matter!

Recently, Jung Hae In's personal social media account has been flooded with requests from fans to unfollow actor Kim Soo Hyun, who is facing serious personal issues and a legal dispute.

This controversy started after Kim Soo Hyun was edited out of the MBC variety show Good Day, and the public began questioning whether continuing to follow him on social media was a sign of support.

The situation became more complicated when fellow "88s" group member Im Si Wan unfollowed everyone on his list except his agency.

Fans quickly pressured Jung Hae In to do the same, but many felt this demand was unfair.

What really made headlines, though, was Lee Jong Suk’s unexpected reaction to the whole situation. Lee Jong Suk, who is close to Jung Hae In, seemed taken aback by the pressure his friend was under.

He was quoted saying, “It’s just a follow. People need to stop overreacting. Jung Hae In is his own person, and his choices should be respected.” His words have left fans in shock, especially since Lee Jong Suk is usually more private.

While Jung Hae In has done nothing wrong, he’s now caught in the middle of a social media frenzy. Should he unfollow Kim Soo Hyun just to please the public, or should he stand his ground and stay true to his friendships?

Fans are eagerly waiting to see how he will handle this situation, especially with Lee Jong Suk’s support behind him.
