TWICE is officially entering another contract renewal season and word just got out that Jeongyeon recently had a meeting with VARO Entertainment.

A representative from JYP Entertainment stated to Xports News on the 24th:

"TWICE is currently in the process of discussing contract renewals. The company and the members are continuing careful discussions while respecting each other's wishes. We will provide an update once things are finalized."

Earlier that day, reports revealed Jeongyeon had a meeting with VARO Entertainment. If that agency sounds familiar, it's because they manage some huge names, including actor Byun Wooseok and Jeongyeon's older sister, actress Gong Seungyeon.

Regarding this matter, VARO Entertainment quickly clarified things, saying:

"It's true that we had a meeting with Jeongyeon, but nothing has been finalized regarding an exclusive contract."

If we look back, TWICE debuted in 2015, and all the members successfully renewed their contracts together in July 2022. Now that they're entering another contract renewal season, public interest is growing over whether the members will re-sign and keep promoting together as a full group.

TWICE's Jihyo has become a hot topic after attending a baseball event together with her younger sister, Lee Haeum.

According to a report by Xports News via News Nate, Jihyo and Lee Haeum took part as the ceremonial first pitcher and batter at the 2026 Shinhan SOL Bank KBO League match between the Lotte Giants and Kiwoom Heroes on June 21 at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul.

After greeting the crown, the two took their respective positions. Jihyo's powerful ceremonial pitch along with Lee Haeum's swing drew enthusiastic cheers from the spectators.

Born in 1997, Jihyo debuted in 2015 as the leader of TWICE and has spent the past 11 years receiving love from global fans as part of one of K-pop's leading girl groups. Her second younger sister, Lee Haeum, was born in 2002 and previously appeared as a surprise guest on the MBC's 'I Live Alone' in 2023.

In addition, Jihyo's youngest sister also made headlines last month as she took her steps toward her debut. Last month, short-form videos introducing a new girl-group project were uploaded to the official account of ABD (A Bold Dream), a new label established under HYBE.

The group is aiming to debut in the second half of this year, and fans quickly noticed that Jihyo's youngest sister was revealed in the lineup. With striking facial features that closely resemble her eldest sister Jihyo, she has already attracted significant attention, raising high expectations for her future as a girl-group member following the footsteps of her K-pop star sister.

Actress Gong Seungyeon and her younger sister, TWICE's Jeongyeon, showed their deep affection for each other. Jeongyeon expressed sincere gratitude toward Gong Seungyeon for quietly staying by her side during difficult times, revealing the sisters' strong bond.

On the episode of tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' that aired on the 20th, Gong Seungyeon, who is now reaching the peak of her career 15 years after her debut, appeared as a guest and honestly shared stories about her life and career.

In the episode, Gong Seungyeon revealed that she is the eldest of three sisters and talked about their extraordinary bond. She shared, "When we were younger, we fought nonstop," but added, "My mom always told us, ‘Later, you'll become irreplaceable friends,’ and now we get along so well." She described her sisters, saying, "They're the people closest to me," adding, "They're the people I see the most. We contact each other almost every day."

To this, Yoo Jaesuk commented, "I heard Seungyeon used to be quite strict with her younger sisters when she was younger," before revealing a surprise video. In the clip, Seungyeon's younger sister, TWICE's Jeongyeon, jokingly exposed her sister by saying, "She was really scary when we were young," making everyone laugh.

Jeongyeon recalled, "There was this one time when she was having an argument with our parents, so I stepped in to stop them, but I ended up getting kicked in the eye." She added, "I had a shoot for my debut teaser the next day, but one of my eyes was completely swollen, so I had to cover it while filming."

In response, Gong Seungyeon clarified, "I remember hitting her head with my hand, not my foot," before confessing, "That day, I had to walk home barefoot in the middle of winter because I hit her in the car. I thought I was going to be in a big trouble once I got home," sending the studio into laughter.

She also admitted that she fought often with her sisters in the past, saying, "I was arguing with my second sister, and Jeongyeon kept stepping in and taking her side. She threatened to tell our mom, so I remember striking her with her phone when she tried to pick it up," drawing more laughter.

Amid the playful atmosphere, the conversation soon became emotional. Yoo Jaesuk said, "Jeongyeon says there’s something else she wants to talk about," before revealing another video clip. In it, Jeongyeon reflected on the period when she was battling Cushing syndrome and relying heavily on Gong Seungyeon.

Cushing syndrome is a rare disorder caused by hormonal imbalance that can cause rapid weight gain, swelling, and weakened immunity. Jeongyeon, who had even halted her activities at the time, recalled, "It was a period that was mentally very difficult to me," adding, "She noticed something seemed wrong with my body and took me to the hospital. That was when I was diagnosed."

She continued, "She is the type of person who loves staying at home, but she even started exercising together with me because of my condition," adding, "Even after finishing her busy schedules, she would come over and work out with me. Thanks to her, I was able to receive proper treatment and recover healthily."

Hearing this, Gong Seungyeon became emotional and teared up. She confessed, "Jeongyeon was going through a really hard time back then," adding, "I was so anxious about leaving her alone that I even asked her to live with me. At one point, I became scared that she might give up on everything and disappear."

Gong Seungyeon continued, "I couldn't completely understand the exact pain she was going through, so I tried everything. I tried pushing her, scolding her, and even soothing her," before adding, "Eventually, I realized the best thing was simply staying quietly by her side. So I tried my hardest to always be there for her," revealing the depth of their sisterly bond.

Finally, Jeongyeon sincerely said, "I'm so happy that my sister is doing well these days,” adding, "Thank you for being my sister, and I'm sorry for making things difficult for you. I love you so much." Gong Seungyeon emotionally responded, “You once said you wanted me to be your older sister again in the next life, but I actually want to be born as your younger sister in the next life," adding, "I love you so much, and let’s become each other's best friends from now on."

On the episode of tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' that aired on the 17th, a preview clip was released on its official social media account with the caption: "Jeongyeon's hardest times. Gong Seungyeon, who always stayed by her side as her pillar of support."

In the video, Jeongyeon looked back at the time she temporarily halted her acitivities in 2020, saying, "At that time, I relied on my sister a lot. I was struggling mentally, and my sister said, 'Something seems wrong with your body,' and 'I think you should go to the hospital.'" She continued, "That’s how I was diagnosed. It was my first time hearing the word 'Cushing.' Thanks to my sister, I was able to receive treatment properly and become healthy again, so I’m very thankful."

Jeongyeon also openly expressed her affection for her sister. She said, "I'm so happy that my sister is doing really well and receiving a lot of love these days. I’m really grateful that she's my real older sister. Thank you, and I’m sorry," before eventually bursting into tears.

Watching this, Gong Seungyeon became emotional and shed tears as well. She said, "I didn’t expect her to talk about this. I'm sorry for hitting you," making everyone laugh while crying. Recalling those days, she shared, "Back then, Jeongyeon was struggling so much. I felt anxious leaving her alone. Even when she lived in the dorm, I kept visiting her, made her stay at our house, and wanted to keep her close to me. That’s why I suggested that we live together."

She continued, "I’m so thankful that she overcame it all. Hearing people say things like, 'She got so pretty' and 'She's back to her peak visual' makes me happy too," before adding, "My younger sister is someone who does everything sincerely no matter what she does. She does everything so well, so I have absolutely no doubts about her."

Meanwhile, the episode of tvN’s 'You Quiz on the Block' featuring Gong Seungyeon will air on the 20th at 8:45 PM (KST).

TWICE has made new history for K-pop girl groups by drawing approximately 550,000 audiences through their North American Tour alone.

TWICE is currently successfully carrying out their world tour 'THIS IS FOR' across the globe. Starting in Incheon and passing through Asia and Australia, their North American tour included 20 cities with a total of 35 shows, marking their largest-ever North American tour.

According to JYP Entertainment on the 24th, TWICE drew 550,000 audiences from their North American tour alone. With this, TWICE set a new record as the K-pop girl group with the most audiences in North America of all time. The agency added, "TWICE was originally scheduled for 22 shows across 20 cities, but as the tickets sold out quickly, additional shows were added in cities like Vancouver, Seattle, Oakland, Dallas, Washinton D.C., Belmont Park, Hamilton, Orlando, Boston, Chicago, and Austin. Meanwhile, two more shows were added in Los Angeles."

This tour featured a 360-degree open stage that face all seating sections, offering an immersive experience for the audience. Whenever mega-hit songs like 'I Can't Stop Me,' 'Moonlight Sunrise,' 'The Feels,' and 'Fancy' began playing, fans erupted in cheers and excitement.

Furthermore, the energy peaked during the members' solo stages and the performances of 'Strategy,' a track from their 14th mini-album that gained long-running popularity on the U.S. Billboard HOT 100, as well as the Netflix original 'K-pop Demon Hunters' OST, 'Takedown (Jeongyeon, Jihyo, Chaeyoung).'

At their final stop in Austin on the 18th, a special video prepared by local fans was shown, moving the members. They shared, "We are heading toward the end of April now. Since starting the North American tour in January, we have done over 30 shows. Hearing our ONCEs tell us that we have worked hard really makes it feel like the end. Thank you to all the fans who came to see TWICE."

After setting another record in North America, the top K-pop girl group TWICE is also set to achieve another milestone in Japan. On April 25, 26, and 28, they will become the first foreign artists in history to hold a solo concert at the Japan National Stadium in Tokyo for three days. With a maximum capacity of 80,000 people per show, the National Stadium is a massive venue where TWICE will once again elevate their reputation as both the first foreign artist and also the first K-pop girl group to perform there.

Starting with hall and arena venues from 2018 to 2020, TWICE become the first K-pop girl group to hold three consecutive concerts at Tokyo Dome in 2022. Later in 2023, they performed solo soncerts at four major venues in Japan, including Yanmar Stadium Nagai in Osaka, Ajinomoto Stadium in Tokyo, Vantelin Dome in Nagoya, and PayPay Dome in Fukuoka. In 2024, they also became the first K-pop girl group to enter Nissan Stadium, the largest stadium in Japan, showing their unrivaled presence.

JYP Entertainment emphasized, "As TWICE celebrates their 9th Japanese debut anniversary this year, standing at the symbolic venue in the Japanese music market, Japan National Stadium, once again solidifies their status as a legendary girl group with a solid local fandom, public popularity, and immense ticket power."

On 'Salon Drip,' Gong Seungyeon shared a story about being kicked out barefoot by her father after hitting her younger sister, TWICE's Jeongyeon.

On the 14th, the 135th episode of web variety show 'Salon Drip,' titled 'Get ready to meet Team Grand Prince's Wife!' was posted on the Youtube channel TEO. This episode featured IU, Byun Wooseok, Noh Sanghyun, and Gong Seungyeon from the drama 'Perfect Crown.'

As the actors talked about their family, Gong Seungyeon, who is the eldest of three sisters with TWICE's Jeongyeon as the youngest, shared, "I used to hit both of my younger sisters a lot. My second sister and I are only a year apart, so we fought a lot. If I her her once, she'd hit me twice. Jeongyeon would try to stop us, and we'd say 'Stay out of it,' but she'd end up getting hit too." She recalled, "There was this one time Jeongyeon saw us fighting and said, 'I'm telling mom.' She ended up getting hit by a phone."

Gong Seungyeon also shared a story about being kicked out barefoot by her father. She said, "We were in our dad's car. I hit my sister and she cried out in pain. My dad suddenly stopped the car. It was winter and I happened to have taken off my shoes. After stopping the car, my dad opened the door and dragged me out onto the ground, then he just drove off." She continued, "The bust stop was about three stops away. I walked all the way home barefoot in the winter. As I walked, I kept saying, 'Yoo Jeongyeon, I'm seriously gonna kill you,'" causing laughter.

Gong Seungyeon noted that this didn't happen when they were very young, saying, "I think I was already a grown up at the time. Around 20 or 21," adding, "Later, I looked back and reflect on myself, thinking, 'How could I still be so immature even as an adult?'"

Gong Seungyeon revealed, "I apologized a lot to her because she had a shoot the next day. It was the day she filmed the teaser for her debut survival show 'SIXTEEN.' Her eye was bruised and swollen because I hit her. I hit the wrong spot," shocking everyone.

Jang Doyeon reacted, "It's a relief that she made it and debuted," to which Gong Seungyeon agreed, saying, "It would've been terrible if she couldn't debut because of that." Jang Doyeon said, "I really enjoyed watching 'SIXTEEN.' You appeared toward the end of the show and I thought, 'Whoa, her older sister is so pretty and seems to care so much for her.' I had no idea there was a story like this behind it."

IU has revealed the reason why chooses to attend fellow artists' concerts using her own money.

On the 14th, a video titled 'Get ready to meet Team Grand Prince's Wife!' was posted on the Youtube channel TEO.

On this day, Jang Doyeon asked Gong Seungyeon, the older sister of TWICE's Jeongyeon, "Does your sister give you feedback on your work?" to which Gong Seungyeon replied, "Not at all," and added, "She has no choice but to watch 'Perfect Crown.' She's such a huge fan of IU that when she shows off her copies of IU's albums, she tells me not to touch them," causing laughter.

IU also shared her experience attending a TWICE concert. Jang Doyeon noted, "I heard you went to the concert secretly."

IU responded, "I went because I really like TWICE," adding, "Jeongyeon later sent me a DM, but I didn't see it at the time. Seungyeon told me about it on set, so I sent my thanks later on."

Gong Seungyeon explained the situation, saying, "My sister said she wanted to invite IU to her concert, so I told her, 'Do you really think she'll see your DM? She probably gets so many messages.'"

Later, Jang Doyeon mentioned, "I heard that even if you receive invitation tickets, you always choose to pay with your own money to see the show." IU explained, "As a performer myself, watching concerts is a learning experience for me. I prefer to go secretly, watch the entire show, and just enjoy it."

IU also shared, "I've been to TWICE's concerts and also to D.O's concerts. I try to go to as many concerts as possible. It relieves stress and is very healing."

When Gong Seungyeon said, "I heard my sister wanted to give you an invitation ticket, but you already bought them yourself," IU replied, "It's because I really like TWICE," showing her feelings as a fan.

Gong Seungyeon added warmly, "I think that's why this drama became one that my sister will watch from beginning to end, even catching the live broadcasts."

On the 16th, a netizen sent a message to Tzuyu through the communication app 'Bubble,' saying, "Can't you lose some of your leg fat? Your backup dancer is slimmer than you."

In response, Tzuyu wittily replied, "Thank you. Save your money." This platform is a paid service that requires a monthly subscription fee of 5,000 KRW.

Controversy grew as a screenshot of this conversation spread across online communities and social media. Criticism followed not only from TWICE's fans, but also from international K-pop fans.

In particular, international fans voiced criticism of Korean beauty standards after fancams of Tzuyu taken during the TWICE's world tour concert on the 15th circulated online. In the video, Tzuyu performed powerful choreography in a short bodysuit and fur boots. An international fan commented, "I really hate Korea's beauty standards. Skinny legs? That's ridiculous. We need more female idols like Tzuyu," criticizing Korea's strict beauty standards.

This incident has reignited debate among international K-pop fans over the extreme focus of appearance in the Korean entertainment industry. On the other hand, some K-netz disagreed, saying, "Tzuyu has been a 'visual' member since debut," and "It's unreasonable to say one person's opinion represents all of Korea's beauty standards."

Meanwhile, many netizens showed support to Tzuyu's sharp response, saying, "I can't believe someone paid money just to leave a hate comment," "Tzuyu’s response was cool," and "Tzuyu has a glamorous figure."

Momo has reportedly purchased a luxury home in Achiul Village, Guri, Gyeonggi Province this month for 4.3 billion KRW paid entirely in cash. The area is known for its cluster of multi-billion KRW luxury homes. The specific villa that Momo bought is the same area where Han Sohee and Nana had previously purchased units in.

According to court registry documents on the 31st, Momo, who is a Japanese national, signed a contract on the 23rd to buy a 221㎡ unit in the luxury villa 'Arcadia Signature' in Acheon-dong, Guri, for 4.27 billion KRW. The payment was completed on the same day and the registration of ownership was finalized with no mortgage records, indicating that she paid the entire amount in cash.

Arcadia Signature is one of the most exclusive properties in Achiul Village. It is a luxurious, villa-style residential complex built in May 2023. It consists of 2 under ground floors and 4 above-ground floors. It only has 8 units in total, 6 standard units and 2 penthouses.

The unit that Momo purchased, the 'Natural Terrace,' includes 3 bedrooms, 1 study, 3 bathrooms, and a private garden. Residents can enjoy views of both the Han River and Achasan Mountain from inside their homes. The villa also has a fitness room and private lounge area for residents.

Arcadia Signature is praised for its excellent location, because it is only a 15-20 minute drive to areas like Gangnam, Gangdong, Gwangjin, and Songpa in Seoul. It also has convenient access to large hospitals, department stores, and Han River parks. Furthermore, it is highly preferred by celebrities who want privacy because it is the first property in Achiul Village that has its own private entrance, allowing residents to enter and exit discreetly, with 24-hour security system.

Han Sohee also purchased a 203㎡ duplex penthouse in Arcadia Signature for 5.24 billion KRW in August last year. At the time, she took out a 1 billion KRW loan from a commercial bank to buy the unit. Nana also bought a 221㎡ unit in March for for 4.2 billion KRW, taking out a loan of about 2.7 billion KRW. Additionally, Choo Jahyun signed a two-year lease for a 222㎡ unit in late November last year with a security deposit of 3.5 billion KRW.

Achiul Village, where Arcadia Signature is located, is often called 'Artists' Village' as it has been home to novelist Park Wanseo, painter Lee Sungja, and printmaker Choi Jisook. After the greenbelt was lifted in 2006, luxury homes and villas began developing in the area. It is highly favored by many celebrities because it offers quiet, rural living while being close to Seoul. Notably, Hyun Bin bought a penthouse unit nearby for 4.8 billion KRW in 2020, where he started his newly wed life with Son Yejin. Other celebrities reported to live in Achiul Village include actress Oh Yeonseo, singer Park Jinyoung, and the couple Hyuna and Yong Junhyung.

[+347][-55] Other singers must be having a reality checkㅋㅋㅋ She can't even sing well, but she manages to earn money in another country.

[+274][-9] Han Sohee must've earned a huge amount of money too.

[+250][-6] The entertainment industry really is all about one lucky break in life.

[+24][-3] Change the law so can foreigners can't just buy property unless they actually live here. If they don't live in the house they bought, they should be required to pay 10% of the property tax every year.

[+16][-2] I can't even earn 200 million KRW a year even though I work for over 12 hours and only get 2 days off a month... This really makes me have a reality check.

[+15][-0] It seems like the three of them must be close friends, considering they all live in a villa complex with only eight households.

[+10][-1] Apparently, Han Sohee came to Seoul from Ulsan right after her senior year break, only with 300,000 KRW and a dream to become model. She knew no one in the city. She worked part-time and got cast by Musinsa. Her guts are amazing. She probably would've succeeded no matter what.

-Her outfit is so short, I thought her top had ridden up.

-The outfit looks amazing on her, but it's way too shortㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Or do I only think that way because I'm a granny now?

-Considering how difficult it is to pull off that kind of styling, she looks really good.

-Whoa... I've never seen a skirt that short before;;;;

-Is that an underwear...?

-Is leather the trend now?

-That goes beyond just a 'short skirt,' though...?? Is it basically a swimsuit?

-Sana has a great body proportion, she actually looks really goodㅋㅋㅋㅋ She's such a hot girl.

-It's a fashion show, so it's okayㅋㅋㅋ She pulled it off like a hot girl should be.

DAY6's MyDay watch

It can be worn on the wrist just like a watch.

It perfectly captures the unique characteristics of the band's fan club.

It can be customized with official characters.

TWICE's Candy Bong Ver 1 and Ver 3

TWICE's fandom name is Once, but the Korean fans are called Candy and the international fans are Jelly. It looks like the design was inspired by that.

Just like the name, the lightstick resembles a candy shape.

Stray Kids' Nachimbong

The group's name means 'lost kids', so it has a compass emblem.

The intense red color aligns well with the group's name and color. 

ITZY's light ring

It can be worn on the arms and said to have a really strong brightness

It also can be customized

NMIXX's Mixx Stick

I don't know much, but the whale is the symbol of NMIXX's fans in their universe.

It always gets mentioned when people are discussing pretty lightsticks.

Xdinary Heroes' Yeonjang (NB: It means tool)

It reflects their identity as a rock band. It has a simple yet bold design that matches the group's color.

The front and back have different designs.

-NMIXX's lightstick is so f*cking gorgeous.

-ITZY’s lightstick is so unique.

-Wow, this company is truly a master of merch.

-All these designs are far from basic and look so pretty.

It seems like it’s related to yesterday's news (obituary).

They didn't post the teaser that was supposed to be posted yesterday and said nothing about it. They just recently posted an announcement about it.

-Did they faint and just wake up now?

-'Due to recent unfortunate news'? Looks like something happened...

-Did something happen to TWICE?

-'Due to recent unfortunate news' <- Could this because of actor SJR who recently passed away?

-What’s this about?

-Did someone pass away? Ah... Was SJR an actor under their company...?

-Is it because of the obituary? They could've released a notice before hand, though.

-Was that actor under JYP Ent.?
ㄴNope. TWICE is not related to that actor at all.

-Why are they only saying this now? People were already worrying because the teaser hadn’t been posted.

-Isn’t this just an excuse?ㅋ

-Hmm...? I heard JYP idols from other departments still released things despite the news, though...
ㄴEach department at JYP operates independently, so you can almost consider them different companies.

-Didn't JYP post notices about a concert yesterday...?

-This makes no sense at all.

-They should’ve announced it earlier. Besides... He was not even an actor from their company, so what’s the relevance?

TWICE releases announcement regarding their teaser that wasn't posted at 12AM without any notices

Out of all the JYP groups and artists

Who has the biggest for JYP?

As far as profit?

Profit or popularity, anything. Any category.

TWICE and Stray Kids.

As far as profits, those two

I think TWICE is still pretty stronger than Stray Kids

They're selling out stadiums, they sold out in Sofi

But now DAY6 is catching up

They're just selling out every concert right now

TWICE, Stray Kids, DAY6

-The scale of TWICE's tour is insane.

-Not to mention those three groups all have totally different conceptsㅋㅋ

-Park Jinyoung must be pleased.

-TWICE is really popular overseas.

-I was so shocked when I heard that Stray Kids sold out the stadium in Taiwan. DAY6 could probably sell out Gocheok Dome, right?

-DAY6 is under JYP? I didn't know that...

-I just became a DAY6 fan a month ago. I'm currently going through all their albums. They're all really good... I really want to go to their concertㅠㅠㅜ

-TWICE is like a boy group without a military break. 

-TWICE is indeed really impressiveㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-I had no idea DAY6 was under JYP...

-What blessing does Park Jinyoung have to have these three groups under his companyㅋㅋㅋ

-I've gone to TWICE and Stray Kids' concerts!! >< I love them

-Ddeok-go... I just became a fan of DAY6 a month ago... Please let me see them more often...
