Red Velvet’s Yeri has touched fans with a heartfelt tribute to her late friend Kim Sae Ron.

On March 12, Yeri posted a photo on her social media, showing herself with a woman believed to be Kim Sae Ron. The two were seen affectionately linking arms, reminding fans of their close friendship.

But what really caught attention was the message Yeri shared alongside the photo. She included lyrics from Jennie’s song "Slow Motion (feat. Zico)", which has gained meaning after Jennie revealed she wrote it "for one special friend."

Yeri specifically highlighted this line:
"I didn't leave ya, I still see ya."

Yeri and Kim Sae Ron were known to be best friends in the entertainment industry. Their bond was so strong that when Yeri took her first-ever vacation, she chose to travel to Bali with Kim Sae Ron.

Seeing Yeri’s emotional post, fans left messages of support, saying:
"This is so heartbreaking..."
"Yeri and Sae Ron had such a precious friendship."
"We miss you, Sae Ron."

Meanwhile, Kim Sae Ron’s family recently made shocking claims through the YouTube channel Garo Sero Institute. They alleged that she had been in a six-year relationship with Kim Soo Hyun since she was 15 years old and that her former agency, Gold Medalist, initially covered the ₩700 million KRW (~$530,000 USD) for her DUI accident, only to later demand repayment after her contract ended.

It was also claimed that Kim Sae Ron had posted an old photo with Kim Soo Hyun in an attempt to get in contact with him or his agency, as they had allegedly cut her off.

However, Gold Medalist firmly denied all allegations, stating, “The claims made by Garo Sero Institute regarding actor Kim Soo Hyun are completely false.”

As more details continue to unfold, fans are remembering Kim Sae Ron for the person she was, not just the controversies surrounding her. Yeri’s post has reminded everyone of the beautiful friendships she had in the industry.

NewJeans quietly paused their activities after a tough legal battle… but a simple message from a fan left them emotional.

On April 12, NewJeans posted a single photo on their shared social media account, now renamed "mhdhh" (using the first letters of Minji, Hanni, Danielle, Haerin, and Hyein), without any caption.

The photo was of a short, handwritten letter from a fan that read, “I love you. I support you.” Touched by the heartfelt words, NewJeans added a crying cat emoji, showing how much the support meant to them.

Fans quickly noticed and filled the comments with love and encouragement like “We’ll be here no matter what” and “NewJeans forever.”

This quiet but emotional post comes as NewJeans remains in a hiatus following a contract dispute with their agency ADOR.

Back in November, the members announced they would be starting solo schedules under a new name, NJZ, claiming ADOR had broken the terms of their contract. However, ADOR fired back with legal actions, including a lawsuit and a request to stop the girls from signing with other agencies or brands.

Last month, the court sided with ADOR, which forced the group to pause activities under the NJZ name. Their social media was also renamed from NJZ to “mhdhh” earlier this month.

Member Danielle recently opened up about her feelings in a long message on her birthday, just days after the official trial started on April 3 at the Seoul Central District Court.

Even though they’re not currently promoting, NewJeans’ fans continue to show strong support — and this small fan letter proves just how much that love means to the members.
