BTOB’s Changsub is officially saying goodbye to Jeongwaja.

On February 17, ootb STUDIO released a video announcing Changsub’s departure from the popular web variety show.

Changsub, who has been the host until Season 5, shared, "I have some good news. I'm finally graduating. I've transferred 66 times, and it was really tough," jokingly celebrating his departure.

He continued, "For the past two years, I’ve studied at so many schools. It was fun, but because of my neck health, I need to focus more on my main job and strengthen my vocal cords."

He added, "So, I’ll be taking a break. But don’t worry! This isn’t a permanent goodbye. We might meet on an island, in a car, or through new content."

Starting from Season 6, EXO’s Kai will take over as the new host. Changsub gave him some advice, saying, "Listen to the professors, get along with the students, and go to bed early."

Kai, who just finished his military service, couldn’t help but laugh as he said, "It’s my first day after discharge, but it feels like I got tricked. I just got discharged yesterday, and today they’re asking if I want to go back to the military."

Meanwhile, Jeongwaja is a show where the host experiences different universities and their unique cultures. The Kai-led season will premiere on March 20 at 6 PM KST on ootb STUDIO’s YouTube channel!

BTS’s Jimin is unstoppable! His song Who has officially earned a Gold certification in Spain, making him the first and only K-pop solo artist to achieve this milestone twice.

On February 12, Spain’s PROMUSICAE, a member of the International Federation of the Phonographic Industry (IFPI), awarded Who the prestigious Oro (Gold) certification. To receive this honor, a song must sell 30,000 units, including streaming equivalents.

Jimin previously earned his first Gold certification in Spain with Like Crazy in July 2024. Now, with Who also achieving Gold status, he has cemented his place as a true global superstar, proving his incredible popularity not just in Korea but all around the world.

His impact in Spain has been undeniable! Who made history by ranking No. 96 on Apple Music’s Top 100: Spain year-end chart, becoming the first and only song by an Asian artist to enter the list.

This marks the first time a K-pop song has ever appeared on Spain’s annual Apple Music chart.

The song’s performance on Spotify Spain has also been nothing short of legendary. Who has stayed on the Spotify Spain Weekly Top Songs chart for 30 consecutive weeks, making it the longest-charting K-pop solo song in the country.

It has also remained on the Daily Top Songs chart for an incredible 203 days, continuously extending its record.

Jimin’s influence in Spain continues to grow, and fans can’t wait to see what record he breaks next.
