[Reporter’s View] Idols Who Openly “Cheat” Off the Prompter… Questions About Their Authenticity
An idol showcase is always a place where excitement and tension coexist. It’s where the first impression of a new album is shaped, and where the public and media can observe the artist’s attitude and authenticity up close.
One of the most noticeable trends at recent showcases is the way idols use prompters. The device itself is now an industry standard. With multilingual members in many teams and with media interviews being especially difficult for rookies, it’s natural for agencies to provide a safety net. The issue isn’t whether prompters are used — but how they are used.
A quick glance to check the flow is no problem. But some groups nowadays read from the prompter as if it were a full script, heavily relying on it. Their pronunciation and tone become unnatural, and they recite lines mechanically. A recent girl group showcase was no exception.
“Today Marks My 10th Debut Anniversary” — Jung Chaeyeon: “DIA and I.O.I Days Are the Assets That Made Me Who I Am” [Interview]
On September 15, 2015, Jung Chaeyeon took her very first steps as a celebrity — exactly ten years ago today. As the saying goes, “Even rivers and mountains change in ten years,” the once-innocent eighteen-year-old girl has stood on countless stages, passed through the fierce competition of auditions, and now stands before the public as an actress.
Starting as a member of the girl group DIA, then drawing attention as part of the project group I.O.I, Jung Chaeyeon steadily built her trajectory in a different path as an actress, stacking up a variety of works one by one. Today, as she marks her 10th debut anniversary, she is no longer just a face filled with potential — her diligent steps have brought her closer to the word “trustworthy.”
When asked how she felt about reaching her 10th debut anniversary, she briefly smiled. The number “10,” which once felt like a far-off future, seemed to make her slightly shy now that it had finally arrived before her. Yet within that unfamiliarity was a calmness that only someone who has faithfully filled their years could have.
“In the past, whenever I saw senior artists in their 10th year pass by, I would wonder, ‘When will I reach that point? What kind of person will I be then?’ I used to imagine it a lot. But now that I’ve actually reached it, I feel the same. Rather than feeling that something has dramatically changed, I feel like I’m still steadily walking in my own place. So, in a way, I think my worries about how I should live my future have grown bigger.”
"We're still moving forward"... POW's growth, maturity, and anticipation [Xport News Interview③]
Music filled with their own stories—an honest chronicle of youth living in the present. Based on this path of growth, the group POW is now preparing to leap even further. That’s why fans are even more curious about the new sides they’ll show on their next stage.
Their third EP album, "Being Tender," is packed with the freshness of summer. With a more energetic and expanded musical world, POW is drawing attention for how their charm will unfold this summer.
"POW’s Summer Begins Again"… A Sparkling Story of Youth and Growth [Xports News Interview ②]
The growth narrative of boy group POW is closely tied to their new EP, Being Tender. Moving forward step by step while maintaining their own pace and staying true to their identity, POW’s sincere journey resonates more deeply through this album.
Their 3rd EP, Being Tender, based on European-style youth culture, showcases a more mature musical world, with leaders Yorch and Jungbin taking charge of the album's overall production. The EP includes various genres with tracks like the title song "Being Tender", "Reason", "Celebrate", and "Fingerprint", demonstrating POW’s broadened musical spectrum.
It’s been nearly two years since POW announced their debut with the pre-debut single "Favorite" in September 2023. Since then, POW has steadily built their unique color through a string of releases including "Dazzling", "Valentine", "Boyfriend", and "Gimme Love".

POW: “In a sharp-edged modern society, we hope Being Tender sincerely reaches your heart” [Xports Interview ①]
Boy group POW has returned with their new album Being Tender, filled with the refreshing brightness and freshness of summer.
Returning about 8 months after their second EP Boyfriend, POW has continued steady activities with their special single Gimme Love and OST track Always There.
After capturing the radiant and youthful moments of late summer with their 2023 pre-debut single Favorite, POW now comes back with an even more refreshing charm. Music fans are paying attention to what kind of youth sentiment they’ll deliver this summer.
Recently, POW (Yorch, Hyunbin, Jungbin, Dongyeon, Hong) sat down for an interview with Xports News to talk about their third EP album Being Tender. During the conversation, they shared their thoughts ahead of official promotions and expressed their determination for continued musical growth.
[YTN Interview] From ‘Today’s practice completed’ to Cross-dressing Acting… How POW Learns to Be Tender to Fans
Boy group POW is ready once again to color the summer. Their third EP album ‘Being Tender’, released today (27th) at 12 PM, comes about eight months after their previous project ‘Boyfriend’.
Through Being Tender, POW talks about the more delicate and gentle emotions of youth. To prepare for this album, the five members built up their stamina, directly participated in songwriting and composing, and even boldly changed their hairstyles.
“Fans probably wondered what kind of POW we’d show this summer,” said member Hyunbin.
More than just a comeback, this album was a redefinition of POW’s identity. Built on the group’s signature European youth sensibility, this concept layers on a more mature visual and emotional tone—highlighted with the keyword “tenderness” expressed in each member’s unique way.
Yorch carries tuna cans for stray cats.
Hong takes care of sick members by giving them medicine.
Jungbin remembers fan letters in detail.
“Tenderness just has different ways of being expressed,” said Hyunbin — showing that each member is living their version of a kind and thoughtful youth.
Not only in their music and on stage, but also in daily life, the five young men of POW are contemplating “how to become tender.”
This interview captures POW's sincerity about youth, kindness, and their passion for the stage.
[JOY Interview] POW: “This is our fiery youth… We’re steadily climbing, one step at a time.”
Today (27th), POW releases their 3rd EP album ‘Being Tender’ at noon.
“Right now is the peak of our passionate youth.”
Boy group POW is growing steadily. Their dream of becoming singers has firmly taken root, and their sincerity toward music is becoming the nourishment that helps them bear fruit one by one. Though the road ahead is still long, the five youths expressed,
“Please continue to watch over our journey and growth.”
POW (members: Yorch, Hyunbin, Jungbin, Dongyeon, and Hong) will officially release their 3rd EP album, Being Tender today at noon.
"I said we slept together to look cool"... Ju Haknyeon, idol or just emotionally immature
"I drank alcohol, but I didn't engage in prostitution."
Ju Haknyeon admitted to meeting the AV (adult video) actress. However, he limited that admission to just "a drinking party." He drew a clear line against the prostitution allegations (which were originally raised by a media outlet).
Ju Haknyeon has turned the situation into a "truth game". He portrayed himself as an underdog in the entertainment industry, saying, “Someone without power can be destroyed over something they didn't do (like prostitution).”
At the same time, he framed this situation as a symbol of hope — a fight between a weak individual (himself) who simply attended a private drinking session with an AV actress and the powerful company pushing him to leave the team.
"I'm determined to go all the way to uncover the truth. I hope this fight can become a small source of hope for someone out there." — Ju Haknyeon
But what exactly is Ju Haknyeon feeling so wronged about? And what warning did the agency give him?
Dispatch retraced the events of May 30 — the night in question — and included testimonies from individuals connected to THE BOYZ.
③ "Seunghyub, a Remarkable Leader · Admiration" N.Flying's Genuine Love and Romance
Praise for the members is endless, and their perfectly synchronized teamwork knows no bounds. The unique bond among N.Flying members, seen in YouTube content, shines brightly even in interview settings. While Seunghyub may appear slightly reserved and shy alone, once with the members, he becomes a complete chatterbox, and together they are so hilariously funny that they could rival professional comedians. Even with just three members together, they bring so much joy; imagining the full five-member group flying around is both exciting and highly anticipated.
Celebrating its 20th anniversary, Joy News 24 highlighted N.Flying's most dynamic activities this year while eagerly anticipating the full group's activities next year. Seunghyub, Cha Hun, and Hweseung, the trusted-listen band of N.Flying, recently conducted an interview at the FNC headquarters. The youngest member playing bass, Seo Dongsung, completed his military service on November 7th, and drummer Kim Jaehyun is set to be discharged in February next year. Cha Hun, who returned in September after completing military service, has been actively engaging with the public through various festivals and tours in Japan alongside Seunghyub and Hweseung. Currently leading the band boom, N.Flying is considered a top-tier leader in the domestic music scene, receiving top priority invitations for major festivals and university events as a true mainstream band.

② N.Flying: The 'Trustworthy Band' Proven by Talent…“We Want to Become a Great Brand”
2024 has been a year of incredible growth for the band N.Flying, marked by a relentless schedule. If they so much as blinked, new engagements would pop up, as love calls poured in for them. Four consecutive days of live performances were the norm, and they even performed twice in one day at various festivals. This highlights N.Flying’s unmatched influence, being the top choice for performance bookings.
This momentum is grounded in their passion, as they pour their all into every moment. Sometimes, their intensity is so fierce that it’s even a bit intimidating. They consistently train and never slack in practice, proving everything through sheer talent. On top of this, they are admired for their great character as well.
Those who have connected with N.Flying, no matter how brief or significant the interaction, support the band wholeheartedly. While their positive results are certainly a reason, it’s the kindness and consideration they’ve shown that truly moves people. Many industry insiders often comment, "Every member of N.Flying is genuinely kind and works hard."
① N.Flying: “Back as a Complete Group for Our 10th Anniversary, and We’re Confident We’ll Soar Again”
N.Flying has led the way in 2024’s band wave, heating up the scene across all areas—from dramas and OSTs to music variety shows, festivals, and university events. With the return of members from military service, N.Flying will reunite as a complete group in February, saying, "We believe we’ll soar once again," as they hint at a promising future.
For its 20th anniversary, JoyNews24 sat down with N.Flying’s Lee Seunghyub, Cha Hun, and Yoo Hweseung at the FNC building for an interview. Despite their busy schedule, all three members answered every question sincerely and wholeheartedly with bright expressions and energy. Lee Seunghyub, in particular, seemed far more relaxed compared to the end-of-series interview for tvN’s Lovely Runner, likely because he was with his bandmates. The interview was filled with laughter thanks to the trio’s endless banter and playfulness, showcasing their ‘likable band’ charm with their kindness and thoughtful answers.
The five-member band N.Flying continued its activities with Lee Seunghyub and Yoo Hweseung filling in for the absence of the instrumentalist members, who were in the military, until September when guitarist Cha Hun completed his service. Their youngest member, bassist Seo Dongsung, was discharged on November 7, and drummer Kim Jaehyun is set to complete his service in February.
During the "military hiatus," Seunghyub and Hweseung had pledged to gather as many fans as possible for N.Fia, aiming to perform in even larger venues once the group was complete again. To honor this promise, Seunghyub and Hweseung have been continuously active, from dramas to festivals, without a break. Seunghyub received acclaim for his acting in the tvN dramas Lovely Runner and Love Next Door, while Hweseung has promoted the band through musicals, OSTs, and other musical ventures. Recently, they have earned the title of "stage masters" due to the constant flood of performance requests for popular festivals, local events, and university festivals.
NewJeans' Hanni Criticizes HYBE and CEO Bang Si-hyuk at Parliamentary Hearing
Hanni (20, Pham Hanni), a Vietnamese-Australian member of the group NewJeans, openly criticized HYBE and its chairman, Bang Sihyuk, regarding issues of workplace bullying and ostracism.
On the afternoon of the 15th, Hanni appeared as a witness at the National Assembly's Environment and Labor Committee (ELC) hearing in Yeouido, Seoul, and stated, "I heard a manager from one team in HYBE say, 'Ignore them.' I don’t understand why I had to go through this."
She added, "I know that if I don’t speak out, this will quietly be overlooked and buried. This is something that could happen to anyone. I’m here because I don’t want seniors, colleagues, and trainees to experience this."
Hanni further revealed, "From the early days of my debut, I encountered a high-ranking official at HYBE, but I never once received a greeting from them." She continued, "Living in Korea, I understood that you must greet older people properly."
Family By Choice actors Hwang Inyeop, Jung Chaeyeon, and Bae Hyunsung’s Marie Claire Korea October 2024 Issue photoshoot and interview
While they bickered throughout the shoot, the warmth they showed soon after made it clear that we don’t even need to ask about the chemistry between the three actors.
Bae Hyunsung: Earlier, during the last cut, noona (Jung Chaeyeon) was happily running ahead, and we followed her from behind. The drama set felt similar to that. Noona would lead the atmosphere, and we would just follow along, saying, “Yeah, let’s go.”
Jung Chaeyeon: I was like a ray of sunshine, hahaha.
Hwang Inyeop: When we were filming in Gyeongju during peak cherry blossom season, the blossoms fell quickly within a few days. I was lamenting how quickly spring passed, and Chaeyeon said, “Why are you sad? It's here right now,” with a laugh. She really was that kind of presence.
Jung Chaeyeon: I’m thankful that even when I made such bold comments, they were always well received. Maybe because the characters in the drama were affectionate, the set was really harmonious. (Everyone falls silent for a moment.) Wasn’t it?
T-ara Eunjung Heraldpop Interview ③
T-ara was a groundbreaking group that debuted through MBC's Radio Star. Reflecting on that time, Ham Eunjung shared,
"There were only two pages of script, and even the broadcasting station was very against it. We couldn't even get our greetings synchronized. It was only when each member took turns doing talent shows that people started to get to know who we were. Our debut was really chaotic, but we were told, 'You need to be harshly criticized and debut under pressure, even from outsiders.' We felt that debuting under protection wouldn't have worked against the bigger idol groups from major agencies,"
Ham Eunjung also mentioned how she feels when she sees 2nd-generation idols making a comeback and the actors she worked with back then.
"When 2nd-gen idols make a comeback, I feel envious and think they look amazing. In 2012, during T-ara’s prime, I appeared on We Got Married on MBC and had a golden period. Meeting Baek Sunghyun and Lee Jangwoo again feels really nice. It’s like meeting old friends, and because we already know each other, there's no need to act superior. It's like a mutual recognition of each other."

T-ara Eunjung Heraldpop Interview ②
Her appearance in daily dramas has diversified her fanbase.
"In the past, many of my fans were around my age and had grown up with me. But now, I’m recognized by a lot of viewers in their 50s and 60s. The way they express their love feels different—it’s almost like how a trot singer is adored. I sometimes think, 'Wow, they really like me this much?' These days, I feel a different kind of passion from this new fandom compared to when I was active with T-ara. There are also younger fans, teenagers, who recognize my songs after watching the drama with their moms and realizing the T-ara songs they used to sing are mine."
In 2021, Ham Eunjung won the Best Supporting Actress award at the KBS Drama Awards for her role in Be my Dream Famly. With Suji and Uri receiving high praise and surpassing 15% viewership, she’s now hoping for another award.
"I really want to win an award, especially the Best Couple Award. Typically, the Best Couple Award goes to actors from major, well-funded dramas that are popular that year. A daily drama couple has never won it,"
T-ara Eunjung Heraldpop Interview ①
Since debuting, have there ever been times where you felt so mentally exhausted that you considered seeking therapy?
"When I look around at my friends, it seems like many of them have gone to therapy, but I never really felt the need. I sometimes wonder how I managed to get through tough times, but I think I would just sit at home like a philosopher, thinking, 'Oh, I see. That can happen. What’s next?' and then move on. Looking back, I guess my mental resilience is stronger than my friends'. Even the doctor I consulted told me I should come talk, and I do feel like going sometimes when I just want to chat casually. But I think I’ve found my own ways of coping and recovering. I’m someone who feels happiness in small things, so I stay in a relatively healthy mental state."
Suji and Uri exceeded 15% viewership, a rare achievement for a daily drama in recent years.
"I think viewers loved the comfortable and playful bickering between my co-star Baek Sunghyun and me. We just focused on acting without knowing much about the internal workings, but it felt good when the CP (Chief Producer) from the news department even treated us to a meal. The success of the drama seemed to have positively affected the news as well. It's truly a great feeling to be recognized. This is my third daily drama with KBS, and they've been very supportive. I'm just grateful for surpassing the 15% viewership mark."
