Before comebacks, they drop hints with images resembling the artists' concept photos and they get everything right.

It's not limited to any one agency's idols, they cover all Kpop artists, from soloists to groups, causing their follower count to steadily rise.

At first, people joked that they were just pulling images from Pinterest, but it turns out they’re not only predicting concept photos. 

Spoiling comeback schedules is just the basics. 

They even leak spoilers about upcoming photoshoots. 

They also give spoilers about new lightstick designs 

And exhibitions 

They also leak spoilers about concert news and got it right 

 

They even guessed the title of ILLIT's title track

They spoil all kind of Kpop news and get them all right, causing buzz. Even international fans are wondering about the identity of the person behind this account.

theqoo

-Whoa... What does this person do?

-It's fascinating how people consume this kind of content

-This is making Kpop boring

-I don't like this... At this point, the person behind that account must be someone deeply involved in the industry. Why are they doing that, though?

-They're just an attention seeker.

-Hul... Aespa renewed their lightstick? I hope they fix the brightness this time.

-I checked their tweets about my faves and it's all wrong

-It's an account that everyone who knows already knows, so why the fuss?

-They seem to be an employee of a distribution company or a major record label.

A Kpop spoiler account that's making everyone wonder the real identity behind it

Kim Yoojung as Baek Ahjin, the sociopathic top actress

What should I do? I only pity myself. Do I have to understand others' pain too?

Whoever it is, whenever it happens, for whatever reason... I'll sweep away anything that stands in my way. I’ll rise to a place where no one can touch me.

Kim Youngdae as Yoon Junseo, who aims to destroy her to protect Baek Ahjin

If God really does exist, I want to ask: Why do I love such a wicked person?

You'll be punished. You’ll live as miserably as the pain you've caused others. I know that, that's why I can't leave.

Kim Dohoon as Kim Jaeoh, who blindly protects Baek Ahjin in every moment.

I told you, just use me. I’m just a guy with nothing to lose. I don’t mind if you pawn my life.

I’m too dumb to think about what's helpful to you. I’m just thinking of betting my life on the only person who’s ever been on my side... if that's what you want.

Lee Yeol-eum as Rena, an idol-turned-top actress with an optimistic personality who has a crush on Yoon Jeonseo

(Her character seems to have changed quite a bit from the original webtoon)

Special appearances: Hwang Inyeop as Heo Ingang, Kim Jihoon (Speculation), etc

Director: Lee Eung-bok (Goblin, Mr. Sunshine, Sweet Home)

Planned to air on TVING in 2025.

-I'm looking forward to Kim Dohoon...

-I like all three of them... I hope it turns out fun for me.

-There’s no actor here that excites me.

-I'm so freaking excited for Kim Yoojung's acting as a sociopathㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-Oh... I like all three of themㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I'm so excited!

-Ah... I'm not looking forward to it.

-I like Kim Yoojung, but she doesn’t match the character's image from the webtoon at allㅠ

-Hul... I love Kim Youngdae and Kim Dohoon

-The male lead’s acting is so bad...

-Who keeps casting Kim Youngdae? I don’t think I’ll be watching this because of the male lead.

-Whoa... Based on the images, they all suit their characters.

-The male and female lead casting doesn’t suit the roles. The characters are complex and require strong internal acting, plus the second male lead's character and acting are good, so the lead actor might easily get overshadowed.

-I like Kim Youngdae because he's handsome.

-I haven’t read the original work, but just from the description, it feels like a drama where the second lead fans will go wild.

Daehwi: Recently, 2NE1 Sunbaenims held their 15th anniversary concert, and it was such a hot thing, bringing back so much nostalgia. So I thought that if we also had a reunion concert sometime in the distant future, when everyone has some free time, it would be a huge gift for the fans.

Kang Daniel: It's like a trip down memory lane... Wow, I got chills.

theqoo

-I'll be waitingㅠㅠ

-'In the distant future'

-I miss themㅠㅠ

-They must really miss each other too

-Please do it, I'll go.

-Please do it, I’ll be waiting ㅠㅠㅠ

-I’ll even go with a cane if I have to. I’m still sad I missed the last concert because I was preparing for exams.

-I have bad knees now, but if you guys do it, I’ll still go to the 4th floor at Gocheok Dome.

-I don’t know about a concert, but a talk show might be doable… Please gather someday for the nostalgia.

-Just do it, I’ll definitely go.

-Please do it, I’ll cry if they actually hold a concertㅠㅠㅠㅠ

-'In the distant future'... Yeah....

-But if they're gonna do it, they’ll have to wait for the members in the military to finish their service first...

-I’m waiting for you, guys ㅠㅠ

I will be waiting for WannaOne's Nth anniversary concert (Unreleased cuts from "Do You Want Some Ramyun?")

She was sent on stage with needles still in her clothes.

The strap is about to rip...

Again and again.

Yet again.

Her skin is irritated because of the outfit...ㅠ


......

Please

theqoo

-Needles? Isn’t that insane? That’s terrifying.

-Whoa, if I were a fan, I'd be furious. Why is this happening? And not just once or twice???

-Aespa's stylist is so incompetent. Why hasn't SM Ent. fired them yet?

-The needles and shoes are way too dangerous...

-At this point, I’d believe it if someone said her stylist did this on purpose.

-How is the stylist still not fired? I’m genuinely curious.

-What is this? Are they gluing the clothes together? Everything’s falling apart. Fans must be so angry and upset.

-I'm sooooo exhausted from being angry... Everything is just so terrible.

-This only happens to Karina...? Is the stylist jealous of her or what?

-Are they trying to injure her with those needles and shoes?

-Maybe it’s just me, but this looks like harassment at this point...

-They seriously need to change Aespa's stylist... This is too much.

-This is seriously very upsetting..........

-Why don’t they replace the stylist? The stylist must be an anti-fan.

-This is seriously dangerous. Is Karina just putting up with it? What’s going on?

-Fans must be so stressed to see this...

Fans are getting tired of talking about Karina's outfit issues

 

Ranks 7th on Melon TOP 100

Ranks 11th on Melon Daily Chart

theqoo

-Isn't this the group that was rigged? The one where Lee Haein actually ranked 1st in?

-Their previous songs were much better. This one’s really bad... I stopped listening after one play.

-Their previous releases are better.

-Rigging aside, I think their previous releases are better. It's kinda surprising to know that this is their highest-ranked song yet...

-The song is really good. Super super.

-I don’t know their older songs well, but this new one is good.

-This song is indeed very good. It's the song I listen to on my way to and off from work.

-If they maintain the song quality, the ranking for the next song should also be decent.

-The song was good, I listened to it while getting ready for work today.

-I understand the members worked hard, and the song is good.... But honestly, I can't support them...

-They’ve consistently released good songs.

-The song is good, but my all-time favorite is Stay This Way.

-This is very surprising because this song is not as good as their previous releases. I think songs like We Go and DM are way better than this one.

7-year-old girl group Fromis9 is finally gaining recognition...

I was like 'What's being angry gonna get you?ㅋㅋ' but after watching the fancam, I'm seriously pissed. What are they doing? Seriously, what are they thinking? These days, the trend is to wear long skirts or pants that allow idols to perform comfortably. But instead, they give her this outfit that's not even f*cking pretty. Why? Even though her value is f*cking high, why? Most of her fans are women, so who is this for? Please f*cking listen to your consumers.

No fan likes having to say things like this. We don’t criticize hair, makeup, and coordination for fun. Every fan wants their favorite idol to have the best styling that perfectly suits them, making them shine. But the only thing that stands out right now is the face she was born with. So, what exactly is the styling team doing?

I just wish all the staff around Aespa would focus on doing their jobs well. Stop showing off your friendships with the members on Instagram and just do your actual job properly. Please focus on your main work for once. All of you~

theqoo

-Why are they doing this, seriously?ㅠㅠㅠ She looks so uncomfortable.

-It's amazing she can even dance in that. I bet she was stressed out because she had to keep worrying about it.

-Most of Aespa's fans are women, so why did they dress her like that? Who is this for?

-What is wrong with them? Seriously, though... Just change the styling team.

-Do they not think about how the outfit affects the performance?

-It's not only short... The material also looks really bad.

-On top of everything, the outfit isn’t even pretty, and the fabric looks cheap.

-Why do they keep putting Karina in risky outfits? At this point, it’s starting to seem like they do this intentionally;;;

-This reminds me of Joy. Looking at the last clip, even the blonde member's outfit is short.

-Aespa’s stylist has constantly caused controversies, and yet nothing changes.

-This has been pointed out so many times, and nothing gets fixed?

-Aespa is always struggling because of their stylist.

-It must be so distracting when she dances...ㅜㅜㅠ

-Her dress is really revealing and short...

-Aespa’s outfits are always disappointing in terms of quality.

-Don’t they do fittings beforehand? How does this keep happening?

-Even Giselle’s outfit is super short. How is she supposed to dance in that?

Karina's outfit today is getting a lot of negative reactions from fans...

Singer Gureum's agency hinted they will be taking legal action against Baek Yerin's agency for using their work without permission.

Gureum's agency stated, "We would like to address the issue regarding People Like People Inc. (hereafter PLP), who has been performing our artist Gureum's works without permission. This situation is not just about simple unauthorized use; we have no choice but to take the following actions and measures."

The agency continued, "Gureum was previously a member of the band 'The Volunteers,' contributing to numerous songs through producing, composing, and performing. After his exclusive contract with Blue Vinyl ended on February 28, we received a unilateral agreement from PLP regarding the free transfer of neighboring rights and waiver of rights to unreleased songs that were not agreed upon during Gureum's withdrawal from The Volunteers. We rejected these terms after discussing them with our artist."

Additionally, the agency mentioned that they had requested PLP to refrain from using Gureum's works multiple times since 10 June 2024. PLP responded by agreeing not to utilize Gureum's works. However, the agency found that PLP had performed several songs without Gureum's consent, including at the Asia Pop Festival, and had confirmed the unauthorized use of personal equipment in a music video for The Volunteers.

Ultimately, the agency stated, "We have no choice but to proceed with legal action to protect our artist's rights and prevent recurrence." Furthermore, they noted that there have been interpretations of the artist's social media posts, dissemination of false information, defamation, and personal attacks in some communities, and they intend to take strong legal action against the creators of malicious posts.

Finally, Gureum's agency stated, "We hope this serves as an opportunity to correct the wrongful actions of some in the industry who take others' creations and assets lightly. We will do our utmost to ensure that many artists, including Gureum, can continue to produce good music."

theqoo

-What the heck... She attacked another singer but she doesn't even have awareness of copyright?

-Did they part on bad terms...?

-Why did she attack another singer for plagiarism...ㅋㅋㅋ She's the bigger problem here.

-Almost all of Yerin Baek's songs were worked on with Gureum... so there aren't many songs to sing.

-? Didn’t they have dating rumors? I guess their relationship soured.

-Weren't there dating rumors surrounding Baek Yerin and Gureum?

-But this is a different issue.

-But can’t you sing a song without the original artist's permission? Isn’t it possible if you pay?

-Can’t you sing a song if the original artist doesn’t give permission? Don’t most people cover songs and sing them?

-Does that mean you can't sing a song if the songwriter doesn't give you permission to...? That's strange.

-I guess their relationship soured quite a bit...

-What’s going on?

-Just how badly did they break up for things to turn this way...

Baek Yerin accused of using a work without permission ... Gureum's reps, "We will be taking legal action"

T-ARA's Jiyeon expressed her position following the news of her divorce from professional baseball player Hwang Jaegyun.

On the 5th, Jiyeon's legal representatives released an official statement, saying, "They could not overcome their differences, leading to an agreement to divorce after a period of separation, and submitted a request for divorce mediation to the Seoul Family Court for procedural progress."

Jiyeon continued, "I apologize for delivering this unfortunate news. We have proceeded with the mediation process for divorce by mutual agreement."

She added, "I kindly ask for your understanding that we haven't been able to express our position quickly, and I will try to greet you with better news in the future."

On this day, it was reported by a media outlet that Jiyeon and Hwang Jaegyun had submitted a divorce mediation request to the Seoul Family Court last month, indicating that they are undergoing divorce proceedings. Rumors of their divorce had spread widely after commentator Lee Kwanggil mentioned during a KNN baseball broadcast in June, "Did you know Hwang Jaegyun is divorced?"

Following this, the commentator apologized, stating that he had caused misunderstanding and harm to the couple, and Jiyeon's former agency representative at the time also stated, "After directly confirming with her, the divorce rumors are unfounded," but ultimately, the couple has chosen to go their separate ways.

The two were married in December 2022.

Below is the full statement from Jiyeon's legal representatives, Taeseong Law Firm.

Hello, this is Attorney Choi Yoona from Taeseong Law Firm, representing Jiyeon.

I am delivering an official statement on behalf of Jiyeon.

The parties could not overcome their differences, leading to an agreement to divorce after a period of separation, and we have submitted a request for divorce mediation to the Seoul Family Court for procedural progress.

We kindly ask you to refrain from sensational reports and speculative comments. Thank you.

Below is Jiyeon's statement.

Hello, this is Jiyeon. First, I apologize for delivering this unfortunate news.

We have proceeded with the mediation process for divorce by mutual agreement.

I kindly ask for your understanding regarding the delay in expressing our position.

I will try to greet you with better news in the future. Thank you.

theqoo

-I hope the two of them find their own happiness. Fighting.

-What's so wrong with getting a divorce if they can't overcome their differences? They can both live well in the future.

-They're young, have no kids, and divorces are common these days. It's no big deal.

-Oh Gosh, they're really getting a divorce i the end. If you feel like it's not working out in the early stages of marriage, getting a divorce is indeed the answer. I hope the two of them find their own happiness.

-They both must have gone through a lot emotionally. I hope they find happiness.

-If you get married, you might end up getting divorced, so why force yourself to live together if it’s not working out?

-They did well. There’s no reason to suffer together if they’re not compatible!

-They got married quickly and also got divorced quickly.

-Once you realize your relationship is not working, it's better to wrap it up quickly.

-Jiyeon-ah, I'm always rooting for you.

-Dating and marriage are different. It's totally understandable.

-If they feel like their marriage's not working out, it's better to go separate ways quickly before they have kids. Divorce isn't a bad thing anyway.

-Jiyeon-ah, be happy.

-Coach Lee Kwanggil was right. He thought his mic was off when he said that and ended up apologizing after it blew up.

-This means baseball insiders already knew about their divorce at that time.

-I wondered how long it would last when they got married...ㅠ They’re getting divorced sooner than I expected.

'Divorce rumors' Jiyeon responds, "We couldn't overcome our differences... Decided to divorce after being separated"
