The talented sibling duo AKMU recently staged a comeback with their track “Love LEE.” They actively participated in various music shows to promote their latest release. For Suhyun, this experience became a golden opportunity to meet and interact with some of the 4th generation idols, with NewJeans being her personal favorite. Remarkably, Suhyun likened the idol group to the beloved Japanese anime “Oshi no Ko,” drawing intriguing parallels between the world of K-pop and the captivating narrative of the anime.
On August 27, 2023, Suhyun took to Weverse to share details about her encounter with NewJeans while filming for “Inkigayo”.
“Firstly, my largest wish for this round of promotions was to watch NewJeans,” she wrote. “After hearing that they would be performing this week at ‘Inkigayo’, I was looking forward to it so much.”
“As I walked around in a sleepy state, someone greeted me,” Suhyun continued. “I greeted them too, and when I saw their faces, it was NewJeans. Holy Moly. My eyes widened to the biggest they’ve been this year, and I was suddenly wide awake. Then, I looked at each and every member carefully. I confessed that I love them.”
The AKMU member revealed that she was called away for rehearsals. However, the production team allowed her to finish quickly so she could watch NewJeans performing.
“All of their eyes were sparkly like the idols in ‘Oshi No Ko’. They must’ve been so tired, but their freshness was a wall,” Suhyun wrote. “It still lingers with me… Their tiny faces and delicate features as they smiled beautifully at me… To commemorate this, I must listen to all of their songs.”
We can’t really blame Suhyun for gushing about NewJeans. With that in mind, we’re happy for the AKMU member who got to meet her favorite hoobaes at “Inkigayo: last weekend.
