Oh My Girl's Mimi reveals her shocking eating habits.

In episode 10 of MBC's 'Omniscient Interfering View' that is scheduled to be released at 5 PM (KST) on the 25th, endocrinologist Woo Changyoon will appear as a guest.

Ji Sukjin began the conversation by asking, "How long do you want to live?" to which Mimi answered, "I want to live for as long as my strength allows. Wonderful things keep coming out in the world, don't they? I think I'd be so upset if I died without experiencing them." Meanwhile, Ji Sukjin, who turns 60 this year, reveals his strong desire for a long life, saying, "I really want to live past 120."

Dr. Woo Changyoon explained, "Our understanding of aging and lifespan is becoming deeper as the time passes by. We need to prepare for the future now," while introducing the recently popular concept of 'well-aging.' He explained that while the concept of 'anti-aging' in the past focused on fearing and preventing aging, 'well-aging' is about naturally accepting the aging process while maintaining bodily functions as much as possible. In particular, he emphasized, "Aging is deeply connected to inflammation," and shared special tips for reducing inflammation.

Mimi's shocking eating habits were also revealed. She confessed, "As soon as I wake up, I eat ice cream. I usually eat two or three at once," showing her extraordinary love for ice cream. Dr. Woo Changyoon warned, "Eating sweet foods immediately after waking up can stimulate the body as strongly as smoking or drinking alcohol," but Mimi responded, "I eat it for my own happiness and mental health."

Dr. Woo Changyoon continued offering realistic health advice. In particular, he stressed the importance of protein intake, saying, "Consuming high amounts of protein promotes the release of hormones that suppress appetite after meals."

Ji Sukjin revealed that he has been eating tomato soup every morning for the past three years as part of his health routine, but then drew laughter as he unexpectedly confessed, "I eat boiled eggs with coffee at night. It makes me really happy." In response, Dr. Woo Changyoon joked, "I think I could extend your lifespan by 10 years."

On the 24th, tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' released a preview video titled, "Lee Joon secretly lived in the school practice room to avoid cockroaches when he was in high school."

Lee Joon, who graduated from the dance department at Seoul Arts High School, shared that he practically lived inside the practice room. He explained, "There were long lockers big enough for someone to fit in. I would hide in one, and after the security guard finished patrolling and locked the building, I would come out," adding, "A practice room with all the lights off is really scary. I practiced dancing there and even slept there too."

Lee Joon explained there was a reason he spent his school years pushing himself through intense dance practies and staying overnight at school. He said, "At the time, my family was going through severe financial difficultes. Our house was infested with cockroaches." He continued, "One habit I still can't get rid of is that even now, whenever I sleep somewhere else like on '2 Days 1 Night,' I always lift the pillow to check underneath it first. Back then, every single time I lifted the pillow, there would be four cockroaches underneath, and whenever I went to brush my teeth in the bathroom, there would even be cockroaches crawling on the bristles of my toothbrush."

Lee Joon added, "The house I used to live in is still there. Sometimes I visit it, and it feels like I've returned to those days. Then when I come back home, my current house is so nice that it feels incredibly strange. It makes me feel like I haven't changed much from back then, but at the same time, I realize I'm now living with and receiving so many things."

Meanwhile, the episode of tvn's 'You Quiz on the Block' featuring Lee Joon is scheduled to air on the 27th at 8.45 PM (KST).

Yoon Hajeong, who previously announced that she will be getting married in October, has now shared her wedding pictorial.

On the 24th, Yoon Hajeong posted on social media with the caption, "Even the weather was on our side during our wedding photoshoot day," along with photos from her wedding photoshot. In the pictures, she wore a wedding dress that emphasized her slim figure and collarbones. Although her fiancé's face was blurred in every photo, his tall stature and physical appearance still attracted attention.

Yoon Hajeong first gained popularity after appearing on the Netflix's 'Single's Inferno 3' in December 2023, where she formed a love line with basketball player Lee Gwanhee. She became well known for her honest and easygoing personality. Recently, she officially announced her upcoming October wedding through social media.

She shared, "We happened to cross paths by chance around a year after I filmed 'Single’s Inferno,' and since we already knew each other, it didn't take long for us to start dating." She added, "I thought I would meet the person I'd marry on 'Single's Inferno.' I never imagined I'd meet my future husband outside the show instead." She continued, "When 'Single's Inferno 3' was airing, we were already dating, so my fiancé would laugh, clap, and cheered whenever I appeared on the screen." She also revealed, "He said he's actually thankful I wasn't chosen and ended up leaving Inferno alone. He joked that if I had become part of the final couples on the show, we probably never would have met."

Kim Soohyun’s side: “Kim Soohyun should now return to where he belongs”

After police concluded that the allegations raised by Garo Sero Research Institute CEO Kim Se-ui regarding actor Kim Soohyun and the late Kim Saeron dating while she was a minor were false, Kim Soohyun's legal representative released another statement.

On the 23th, attorney Go Sangrok stated on social media, "Actor Kim Soohyun is simply a victim of a crime, not someone standing on the equal position with the defendants (currently suspects) in the trial process."

He continued, "That is why we have not responded to the absurd claims repeatedly made by Kim Se-ui on YouTube until now, and we plan to continue maintaining that principle."

The Seoul Gangnam Police Station recently wrote in its arrest warrant request submitted to prosecutors, "The suspect intentionally spread false information to defame actor Kim Soohyun despite fully knowing that he had not dated the deceased while she was a minor and that he was not responsible for the circumstances surrounding her death."

Previously, actress Kim Saeron, who had been taking time for self-reflection following a drunk driving incident, posted a photo of herself posing cheek-to-cheek with Kim Soohyun and deleted within about three minutes in March 2024, sparking dating rumors between the two. At the time, Kim Saeron stated, "I am currently preparing an official statement," but a few days later added, "After much consideration, I decided not to release one." Kim Soohyun's agency, Gold Medalist, denied the rumors, saying, "The rumors are completely groundless. We have no idea the intention behind Kim Saeron's actions."

Kim Saeron later passed away at her home on February 16 last year at the age of 25.

From March 10 of the same year, Garo Sero Research Institute CEO Kim Se-ui, alongside with Kim Saeron's bereaved family, claimed through broadcasts and press conferences that Kim Saeron had dated Kim Soohyun for six years starting from when she was in the third year of middle school while he was in his late 20s. As evidence, they also released screenshots of KakaoTalk conversations, audio recordings, and private body photos.

On March 31, exactly 21 days after the allegations first surfaced, Kim Soohyun held a press conference and refuted the claims, stating, "I did not date the deceased when she was a minor," and argued that some of the evidence presented by the bereaved family, including KakaoTalk conversations with the deceased, had been fabricated and were fake.

Dayoung: “I didn’t get a tan. This is actually my natural skin tone ... I used foundation three shades lighter all over my body during girl group promotions"

Dayoung made a guest appearance on 'Omniscient Interfering View' and shared the story behind her late-blooming success, including how she flew to Los Angeles using her own money and eventually achieved first place as a solo artist.

On the episode of MBC's 'Omniscient Interfering View' that aired on the 23th, singer and actress Lee Jooyeon and WJSN's Dayoung appeared as guests.

In the studio, when Yang Sehyung told Dayoung, "You look like a foreigner," she honestly replied, "I'm from Jeju Island. I can't speak English." Then Jeon Hyunmoo added, "You look like someone who just came out of a tanning salon," and Dayoung responded, "Everyone thinks I got a tan, but this is actually my natural skin tone."

She continued, "When I was promoting with WJSN, I used foundation three shades lighter all over my body. Back then, I used up a whole bottle of foam cleanser every two weeks because I had to wash the foundation off my entire body," She drew attention by adding that promoting with her natural skin tone now feels much more comfortable.

In the following VCR footage, Dayoung's highly productive daily schedule was revealed. She woke up exactly at 5 AM, with her phone filled with early-morning alarms. Dayoung explained, "I wake up early because nobody contacts me at dawn, so I can focus completely on myself." As soon as she opened her eyes, she started her day by watching motivational videos.

Dayoung, who had dreamed of becoming a singer since the age of four, also revealed the emotional story behind her solo debut. During WJSN's contract renewal discussions, she felt limited trying to prepare a solo album while balancing variety show activities. She confessed that she told her agency she was going on a vacation to her hometown in Jeju Island, but instead bought a plane ticket to Los Angeles and flew the very next day. She stayed there for three months and produced an album using her own money. 

After booking the flight, she remembered singer Eric Nam, whom she already knew personally. With his help, she was able to resolve issues like getting introduced to local composers and getting assistance with the translation. Dayoung joked that she spent so much money during that time and said, "I'm basically bankrupt now." After independently producing a high-quality album and concept, she eventually received approval from her agency, successfully debuted as a solo artist, and even achieved first place on music shows.

Looking back on her win, Dayoung said, "At the time of my comeback, there were four solo artists promoting. There were so many fierce competitors. I thought to myself, 'This will probably be my last solo album,' but after winning first place, I felt a sense of relief, thinking, 'Maybe I’ll get to release another album,' and I started crying," creating an emotional moment.

While Dayoung pursues absolute perfection in her work, her life at home turned out to be much more practical and laid-back. In this episode, the interior of her house was revealed. Her belongings that casually scattered around showed that she focused more on functionality over aesthetics. In this space, she studied English early in the morning while wearing a face mask pack. She impressed the panel members by revealing that she mainly watches White House press briefings to learn the accent and proper pronunciation. Furthermore, she also demonstrated strict self-discipline with her diet by holding back her cravings and snack on vegetable sticks insead.

Lee Jooyeon shared her thoughts about dealing with malicious online comments.

On the episode of MBC's 'Omniscient Interfering View' that aired on the 23th, Lee Jooyeon and Dayoung appeared as guests.

To mark Family Month, Lee Jooyeon invited her parents to her home, where they shared conversations while eating a meal she personally cooked. Regarding her father, she said, "He used to work as a public servant, but after retiring, he now works part-time at a bank." Her father happily mentioned that many people recognized him since his appearance on the previous episode. 

Lee Jooyeon's father talked about Lee Jooyeon's personality growing up, saying, "She was such a messy child that her nickname was 'Dung Fly.' Since her name is Jooyeon, we also called her 'Joopal.' We never had any celebrities in our family, so it felt unfamiliar to us. I actually opposed her becoming a celebrity. She's not unintelligent at all. In her third year of high school, she even won the grand prize in mathematics," speaking proudly about his daughter.

Her father added, "Back then, whenever I read online comments, it truly broke my heart seeing so many terrible things written about her. I'm so glad that these days there are many good comments."

Lee Jooyeon smiled and said, "I personally don’t spend much time online, but my dad reads everything. Even if there are hurtful comments directed at me, I’m okay. What really worried me was my family getting hurt because of them. That broke my heart, even though I could endure it myself." She then added with a laugh, "But now there are so many warm comments that my dad says he feels full even without eating."
