YG Entertainment revealed BLACKPINK member Jisoo is working on a solo project.

On January 2, YG Entertainment revealed that the BLACKPINK member was currently working on a solo project and that they had already filmed the jacket photos for the album.
BLACKPINK’s Jisoo is currently doing her best working on a solo album. Although she has been busy since last year with a world tour, Jisoo has already filmed the album jacket photos and is working on music to keep her promise to fans. She will be returning to fans soon with good news.
— YG Entertainment
The statement comes days after BLACKPINK was rumored to be leaving YG Entertainment for the label’s affiliate THEBLACKLABEL, which was founded by longtime YG producers Teddy and Krush and is a subsidiary of YG Entertainment.
YG Entertainment has since denied the rumors stating that BLACKPINK still had time left on its contract with the label.
As part of the 2022 MBC Gayo Daejejeon (also known as MBC Music Festival), IVE‘s Jang Wonyoung and Leeseo performed a special cover version of sunbaeIU‘s “strawberry moon” on December 31 (KST).

And, as per usual, MBC‘s YouTube channel uploaded a video of the performance that showcased the two members singing while sitting on high stools.
Since the performance, however—especially following the video upload, the girl group members and their agency, Starship Entertainment, have come to face immense criticism.
The initial flak came from the fact that Jang Wonyoung and Leeseo were “obviously lip syncing.” Though some pointed out that lip syncing is generally more accepted at these year-end festivals (considering the short practice time frame), most agreed that the idols “didn’t put in any effort at all” to make the performance “worth watching.”

“So they don’t want to be singers. They just want to sit pretty like dolls.”
“I wonder if both of them are so busy and exhausted that they can’t even sing a single track live…? Because, no matter what the excuses, singers should sing on stage. And idols are singers, too. This is kind of disappointing.”
“Obviously lip syncing. I wonder if it doesn’t embarrass them at all. I would understand if their vocal chords are all damaged and they’re just not in the condition. But for singers to go on stage to sit and act like they’re singing? How is that acceptable?”
“I can’t believe IVE won daesang, though… What a shame.”
“The members should absolutely be mortified. A lip synced performance? TBH, they don’t even look like they want to put in the effort to make it at least seem real. Is this all it takes to be singers? Just to look pretty on stage?”
Then, as the backlash continued over thousands of comments under the YouTube video and across online K-Pop communities, others accused Starship Entertainment of “recycling” the exact audio that was recorded five months ago.
Insisting that the AR came from a cover video shared to IVE’s official YouTube channel back in July 2022, fans expressed disappointment at both IVE and Starship Entertainment for being “insincere.”
You can play the videos at the same time and you’ll be able to hear that it’s one audio.
— Netizen
One fan clarified, “It’s not that [the fans] are looking for a reason to hate on the members, but more so that [they] want to know if there was no other way for the performance to have been done.”
So they really couldn’t even record a new version of the AR, huh? They’re literally just sitting pretty. What effort is being made here, for that performance? An effort to look good?
The fact that the whole thing was lip synced is already low effort. But for the AR to have been months old, recorded for another video…? It’s disrespectful, especially considering the size of the event this was. I know IVE members must have worked really hard to get where they are now. But I also feel like they could do better.
— Netizen
In general, the fans expressed disappointment in the fact that IVE “seemed reluctant” to put on a good quality show for their fans.
| theqoo
“People are more understanding of idols lip syncing cover performances at these year-end festivals because there are three broadcasting stations. Idols usually have to perform their own songs, sometimes arranged differently. They have covers, collaborations, and more. So it’s taken into consideration the sheer amount of time and effort needed in such a short period of time. But this performance…? This isn’t a cover. This is basically a replay of their five-month-old video.”
“Some idols put together special performances and have their choreographies down to a T even after having been on an international tour all this time… Yet for them to half-a*s a cover performance like this, lip syncing while sitting down?”
“This is the worst… I feel like Starship Entertainment pushed through with this because they can. It’s impossible to overlook how unprepared the members were. And I refuse to believe that there wasn’t any time to prepare. They had time. They just didn’t want to put in the effort.”
“It’s MBC and Starship Entertainment getting in over their heads. Jang Wonyoung is a popular member, so they want to put her on stage. But they couldn’t get her to practice.”
“Wow…”
“[The fact they re-used the audio] is the most baffling to me. How insincere!”
“Like, I don’t actually mind lip synced performances all that much. Especially for year-end shows like this, I’m fine with lip syncing. I’m fine with seated performances, too! But for them to re-use an old audio… Now, that is disappointing. It no longer is about the members’ abilities to sing or not. It’s about their sincerity for the stage.”
Some even argued that IVE and/or Starship Entertainment “got in over their heads” and threw together a “subpar performance,” when “other artists—who can sing live—could have wanted and/or needed the opportunity.”
I hope the members feel bad for what they’ve done, to themselves and to fellow K-Pop idols. IVE isn’t the only group who was packed with schedules at the end of the year. If things got really out of hand and they realized they had no time to put the performance together, they should have turned down the stage…
Like, what was even the point of this? A lot of other idols would have appreciated the opportunity to be on stage. I’m a general K-Pop fan and this just absolutely breaks my heart. This is an opportunity completely wasted…
— Netizen
Neither the members nor Starship Entertainment has responded to the online heat.

YG Entertainment kicked off 2023 with a bang: A new girl group named BABYMONSTER will be making its debut soon, and the level of excitement among K-Pop fans is running high!
Following the teaser that garnered international attention, alleged member Ahyeon has gone viral with her “pre-debut” pictures circulating on the internet.

Said to be born in April 2007, Ahyeon (or Jung Ahyeon) is being considered an “all-rounder”…
There are some footage of Ahyeon in her childhood also being circulated. Based on these videos, the member is thought to be able to speak Chinese and English as well!
In addition to praising Ahyeon’s potential, K-Pop fans online commented on how the star-in-the-making shares an uncanny resemblance to a handful of her sunbae idols!

“I see SISTAR‘s Dasom.”
“I don’t think I’m the only one who sees Kim Garam and Huh Yunjin.”
“She’s a mix of Kim Garam and Huh Yunjin.”
“I see a bit of Jennie, Yunjin, and even Rosé.”
“Wow, she’s gorgeous.”
“A 07-liner… She’s young.”
“I see a little bit of Jennie, Kim Garam, Huh Yunjin, and actress Kim Ji Won. She’s super charming!”
| theqoo
“I see LE SSERAFIM‘s Yunjin + Kim Garam + APRIL‘s Chaewon + TWICE‘s Jihyo. Somewhat ethnic?”
“Whoa, I definitely see Yunjin. She has gorgeous features. So pretty!”
“Huh Yunjin + Kim Garam, for sure.”
“Since the teaser came out… I guess people are sharing all kinds of pre-debut pictures.”
“Wow, I see it! I see Huh Yunjin, Kim Garam, and even actress Go Yoon Jung.”
“I think she’s 70% Kim Garam and 30% Huh Yunjin.”
| theqoo
“For sure… There’s a Go Yoon Jung vibe.”
“So beautiful!”
“I thought I saw Kim Garam in the teaser video, TBH. She’s like a twin.”
“Hey, I thought I saw Jennie + Huh Yunjin, too! I’m glad we’re all seeing the same thing.”
“I see all of them. Jennie. Kim Garam. Huh Yunjin.”
“Good to know I’m not the only one who sees Kim Garam.”
“Isn’t there a bit of Dasom, too?”
Meanwhile, some K-Pop fans are concerned that BABYMONSTER members might be “too young” for debuting.
Following Dispatch‘s New Year’s Day relationship reveal, actor Lee Jong Suk penned a letter to his fans. In the letter, the actor mentioned “Kang Dan I” while explaining his feelings about his friend-turned-girlfriend IU.

How should I word this…? I was moving on with my life, doing my own thing. But there was always a part of my heart that belonged to her.* She was weird like that. I think you would all understand it if I put it this way; She was like Kang Dan I to me.
— Lee Jong Suk
So who is Kang Dan I? While the comparison might be puzzling, K-Drama fans are swooning at this romantic confession written between the lines of the letter.

Kang Dan I is one of the two main characters of the 2019 K-Drama Romance Is A Bonus Book. Brought to life by actress Lee Na Young, Kang Dan I is a strong-rooted woman making her waves in the workplace no matter the obstacles.
And while this character description could fit IU, it’s not quite what Lee Jong Suk must have meant, according to the Bonus Book fans.
IU
In the series, Lee Jong Suk is Cha Eun Ho; A successful editor-in-chief who has harbored a crush on Kang Dan I for as long as he can remember. Cha Eun Ho is a perfectionist in all nooks of life, except for when it comes to the neighborhood-noona-turned-love.
Bonus Book fans believe that Lee Jong Suk mentioned Kang Dan I to highlight the fact that he has been in love with IU for a long time—even when the timing and circumstances have kept the two apart.
Cha Eun Ho adored Kang Dan I with his whole heart, so much that he couldn’t risk confessing his feelings for her and messing up the friendship he had with her. Instead, he sided with her each step of the way and rooted for her life.
Then, in time, through the ups and downs, the two ended up together in love.
— Romance Is A Bonus Book Fan
In fact, one particular scene from Episode 10 is thought to capture Lee Jong Suk’s long and deep running feelings for IU.
In the scene, Cha Eun Ho confesses his feelings to the unsuspecting Kang Dan I, promising to keep things the same regardless of what happens between the two; Much in line with how Lee Jong Suk kept it casual with IU for a whole decade.
Cha Eun Ho: Hmm. I wonder since when. I don’t know since when I’ve had feelings for you.
Cha Eun Ho: How do you tell the season changes? From spring to summer, summer to fall, and fall to winter… Do you know the exact moment when winter turns to spring? Likewise… I don’t know since when I’ve had feelings for you.
Kang Dan I: But Eunho-
Cha Eun Ho: See? This is why I didn’t want to tell you at first.
Kang Dan I: Then you should’ve kept it secret for me.
Cha Eun Ho: How could I? You asked me how I felt about you. I’m a man, after all. You had me cornered and I didn’t want to keep lying about my feelings.
Cha Eun Ho: But I’m not going to make any moves. At most, I’ll bring you presents. Like the necklace. That’s all. I’ve been doing that all this time. Whenever I have something good to share, I’d want to share with you. And I’ve been doing so. That’s how we’ve always been.
…
Cha Eun Ho: Yes, I do have feelings for you. But I’m not going to pursue them, not when it doesn’t feel right. So don’t mind me. You keep doing whatever you want, however you want. Date other men, if you want. Just keep being you. That’s all I ask of you.
Kang Dan I: But what about your feelings? What are you going to do?
Cha Eun Ho: Are you worried that I’ll be sad and lonely? I have not once felt that way in the time that I had feelings for you. I worked hard and kept myself busy. I even went on dates, too. I really wasn’t all that desperate because of my crush on you. It’s not like I threw myself on the line for love. I kept it easy for myself. So please don’t overthink this.
Thanks to these interpretations, the new couple is being heralded as “true love.”
