Kim Heechul’s family connection made a surprise appearance on TV, and even he couldn’t believe it!

On the March 21st episode of KBS Joy’s 20th Century Hit Song, the show celebrated its 5th anniversary with a special theme—songs people love to belt out in the final minutes at karaoke.

During the ranking, Choi Young Joon and Noh Sa Sa’s 100 Great People Who Shined Korea (1991) took 9th place. Lee Mi Joo was shocked and said, “I didn’t know people actually sang this song at karaoke.”

Kim Heechul laughed and replied, “What’s more surprising is that there are others besides me who sing this song.”

He then curiously asked, “Is the person who requested this from Wonju? A classmate of mine? There’s someone just like me.”

However, to his shock, the person who left the comment was none other than his own older sister!

Realizing this on-air, Heechul burst into laughter, exclaiming, “Wait, that’s my sister? My sister is another crazy one like me?”

Fans were entertained by his hilarious reaction, with many now curious about his sister’s personality and whether she’s just as fun as Heechul!

The NewJeans contract dispute is getting more intense, and now, some fans have started a truck protest urging ADOR to talk things out.

On March 27, trucks were spotted in front of HYBE’s headquarters in Yongsan, Seoul, displaying messages like “We respect NewJeans, but we can’t let them walk a dangerous path” and “NewJeans has 6 members, but the penalty is for 5.”

These protesting fans are worried about NewJeans’ decision to keep fighting the lawsuit despite the court already ruling in ADOR’s favor. They warn that if NewJeans loses the main case, the financial penalty could be massive.

The court previously dismissed the group’s claims for contract termination, raising concerns that the members could face even bigger disadvantages in the next trial.

NewJeans first notified ADOR of their contract termination last November and later rebranded as NJZ, preparing for independent activities.

However, the court sided with ADOR, stating there was "not enough reason to justify ending the contract." Despite this, NewJeans has filed an objection, and a new hearing is set for April 9.

The group firmly claims that “trust with ADOR is completely broken, and we cannot work together anymore.” But inside the fandom, opinions are split—some want to support the members no matter what, while others worry that “this fight might only hurt them in the end.”
