EJ having a bulbasaur plush 💔💔💔 my poor baby

She's so lucky to have such a good dad

"i love bulbasaur and pokemon. i think i dressed up as ash for three years in a row for this children's day thing they used to do at school when i was a kid , and when i was learning english , i used to watch the english dub to practice listening. we got to record the opening for horizons last year , which was the coolest shit i've ever done in my life." she shares , skittish and grinning toothily— a side she rarely ever shows. "i still have all my old cards somewhere at my dad's house— maybe i'll pick them up next time i visit and do a live showing them off , since the fans has been asking about it for a while. i've got some good ones!"

"and yeah , my dad's awesome. i probably don't call him as much as i should , but i'm trying to be better about that." she concludes with a nod.

lemon slices is the web series of honeylemon's short videos and vlogs , released on the group's official youtube channel since pre–debut. the series gives fans a personal glimpse into the girls' daily lives , with behind–the–scenes content , casual hangouts between the members , reactions , and more.

FAN–FAVORITE MOMENTS

in one of their earliest vlogs , the girls recorded their typical morning in the dorm , back when the six of them shared one living space. the vlog is hilariously chaotic but candid , showing joori trying to get everyone up and ready ahead of work. meilin refusing to get out of bed , ej still half–asleep while brushing her teeth , and the girls all eating breakfast together are highlights from the vlog.

a vlog uploaded after debut , showing meilin , ej , and kenzie rehearsing and preparing their iconic pre–debut dance video to "press" by cardi b. they went to the ceo of seventh heaven and said "we want to make history" , and that's what this was.

in one of her solo vlogs from 2021 , kenzie spends her off day doing pilates , eating at a cafe , and hanging out with one of her closest idol friends , mark of nct. the two casually visit coex mall , getting tickets to the aquarium , shopping , and taking pictures in a photobooth before getting dinner. it's one of the most viewed videos on the honeylemon channel.

in another vlog , the girls are seen rehearsing , getting ready before , and then unwinding after their performance at the 2024 waterbomb festival. however , it's beloved by fans because in it , the girls finally get ej to explain a few of her tattoos on camera. she shows off the tattoo of haku from spirited away that takes up most of the sleeve on her left forearm , the words beside it , and the art on that same hand , before lifting up her shirt and showing the flower on her torso— the clips have been turned every way but loose in edits on tiktok.

the girls get a few of their managers together in their practice room and teach them the choreography to what was their newest song at the time , o–m–g , introducing some of their staff members to their audience. the winner , their primary manager , maeum , is beloved by fans and still often interacts with the girls on camera.

joori , ryuhyun , and anna visit a cate cafe in seoul together on an off day , and spend the whole vlog fawning and cooing at the animals. they get particularly attached to a rescue cat that insists on sitting with them , and anna and ryuhyun plead with joori to let them bring it home with them , and even though she refuses for the entirety of the video , the kitten can later be seen roaming around the dorm in the backgrounds of later vlogs.

FAN–FAVORITE MOMENTS

interactions with locals and even being recognized in some instances. the girls do challenges that force them to leave their comfort zones and have conversations with people , that end up either being quite pleasant or silly.

one day in fiji , the girls all split up and engaged in various activites ; ryuhyun and melin went on a quest to try all kinds of fijian foods , ej somehow convinced an extremely skittish joori to go snorkeling with sharks with her , while anna and kenzie opted to relax and took mud baths at a spa.

in the final episode of season one , the girls all get together around a bonfire on the beach and read letters they were tasked with writing to each other before the trip. the scene is really emotional , with all six of them getting teary as they express their admiration for each other and discuss their friendships and career. ej tries to lighten the mood by cracking a joke at one point , but just ends up crying too , which actually does make the rest of the girls laugh.

in an episode of season two , the girls are introduced to activities like skiing , snowboarding , and ice skating. while anna is a natural , apparently having done all of this while growing up in canada , the rest of the girls struggle to pick the skills up , leading to hilarious wipeouts and competition. they do , for the most part , eventually get the hang of it with guidance from anna and the instructors.

the fanservice mama... off the charts. so much hand–holding , impromptu cheek kisses , affectionate touching , words of affirmation , sharing clothes and beds , "dates" ( 80% of the time , ej and kenzie at the scene of the crime ). let's just say they were robbed of a glaad award nomination!

one night in the swiss chalet , the girls get ( responsibly ) wine–drunk and play a game of mafia. the game is filled with laughter and dramatics as they get a little too into their roles , and eventually gets so intense that , hilariously , at one point their conversation is almost completely censored with beeps due to them playfully cursing at each other.

a third season of the show has been confirmed to be coming out this year , rumored to have been filmed somewhere in south america.

🎀 for ej

₍ᐢ. .ᐢ₎ ... slipping  through  my  fingers

characters  :  go "ej"  eunji  ,  dad

warnings : childhood trauma (?) idk the actual traumatic event that leads to ej acting the way she does isn't mentioned or even alluded to , but she behaves like a child with trauma would in this drabble. lmk if there's anything you think should be added!

notes : this takes place in 2009 , when ej is eight years old. it's really really old lol i found it while going through my drafts.

words : 544

there are exactly twenty–four wooden slats nailed into ej’s bedframe, holding her mattress up and keeping the whole bed from falling apart.

being her main hiding place after having yet another emotional outburst, eunji’s had plenty of time to count them— hundreds of times now, it feels like. laying flat on her back, arms at her sides, with nothing better to do, she’s even memorized the weird patterns on each, sometimes reaching out to trace them with her tiny fingers.

she had actually started the day off well, but when dad refused to give her more time to play at the park, it felt like the end of the world. she kicked and screamed and cried the whole way home, where she was immediately sent to her room to calm down.

she did not calm down.

she trashed her bedroom first, making a point to direct every hard–cover book she’d ripped from her ladybug–themed bookcase and every heavy, plastic toy at her door, just so her dad would hear it, before finally melting into a puddle of tears when she ran out of things to throw. then, she crawled under the bed and cried until she couldn’t anymore.

there’s a little cobweb in the corner (luckily, she isn’t afraid of spiders— or any bug, for that matter), a few balled up socks, the bulbasaur plushie she’d wanted to bring to school for show–and–tell last monday and threw a fit over when she couldn’t find it.

mostly, it’s just quiet down here. dark, since the light from her bedside lamp only reaches so far. safe.

eunji’s eyelids, sore from the crying, have grown heavy, but just as she feels herself actually falling asleep, the squeal of her bedroom door being opened has her jolting right back awake.

her dad sighs heavily at the mess of toys and books before him, takes careful steps over it all before his socked feet come into eunji’s view, standing before the bed. then, he’s climbing under to be with her, absentmindedly whispering about being his "bad back" to himself as his body comes into contact with the floor.

wordlessly, she scoots over until her arm is pressed up against the trim of the wall, making room for her father. he still doesn’t fit all the way under— his whole left arm and leg stick out from the side of the bed. it must look really funny from the outside, she figures.

there’s a beat of silence. it’s obvious that he never really knows what to say when it comes to her. her older brother, jisung, was never like this. he’s never had to deal with raising a bad kid before.

she keeps thinking that, some day, he won’t come looking for her. that her father will finally have had enough of her, just like everyone else, and she’ll finally get what she deserves— to be left alone.

but, for now, he just asks, “feeling better?”

eunji nods, suddenly yawning, earning an endeared chuckle from the man. “and sleepy.”

“yeah? well, dinner’s almost ready. i made your favorite.”

suddenly, she’s wide awake, voice suddenly pitched high with excitement. “pancakes? with shrimp?”

“mhm. and scallions— that green stuff you like— too. c’mon, let’s get out of here.”

and so they do.

★ SEVENTH HEAVEN'S MOST NOTORIOUS SCANDALS.

branded as the highest of the heavens , home to only the best of the best idols , seventh heaven is a label known for their polished and high quality image. yet , despite their elite pr team working tirelessly behind the scenes , some things are just too large to contain. below , you'll find some of the company's most notorious scandals , controversies , and dramas.

after a painstaking two years , the legal battle between seventh heaven and the former members of nabillera has finally ended.

four of the five members of trailblazing girl group nabillera— kim minji , naomi utaura , seo jinah , and nandhini "nani" pillai— first filed a lawsuit against their label seventh heaven in 2013 , citing mistreatment as reason to terminate their contracts.

seventh heaven then filed a counter lawsuit against the four women for over ten billion krw , claiming they had broken their contracts and inflicted significant financial damages to the company by abruptly halting group activities.

throughout the trial , the four members alleged that they had endured grueling schedules and withheld earnings under seventh heaven. they also accused the label of using media play and pr to smear them , following the leaking of messages between the members that painted them as jealous of bandmate ara. the company vehemently denied these claims , insisting that the members had been adequately compensated and that their contracts were legally binding.

today , it was announced that the court ruled in favor of seventh heaven , stating that their was insufficient evidence to prove contract violations. as a result , minji , naomi , jinah , and nani have been ordered to pay damages to the company , though the exact amount has not been revealed.

baek ara , the only member to remain signed to seventh heaven , has been deafeningly silent on the matter. seeing as she was the only member to not participate in the initial lawsuit , she's remained signed to seventh heaven as a highly successful soloist.

following the ruling , minji , naomi , jinah , and nani expressed their disappointment but thanked fans for their unwavering support. "we fought for what we believed was right , and while the outcome is not what we hoped for , we are grateful to those that have stood beside us," they wrote in a joint statement.

seventh heaven has yet to release an official statement , but industry experts speculate that the verdict could set a precent for future disputes between idols and their agencies. meanwhile , fans remain divided— some expressing frustration over the ruling , whilst others hold out hope that the four women will one day return to the industry on their own terms.

stay tuned for further updates.

in the midst of the controversy surrounding golden hour's ahri and nabillera's ara's dating scandal , fellow golden hour member isaac has ignited another firestorm after posting an impassioned rant on the group's official fancafe.

ahri , the main vocalist of monster rookie group golden hour , was recently revealed to be in a relationship with ara of nabillera , who is currently promoting as a soloist amid the legal dispute between her former groupmates and label. the news , while met with support from some , has triggered intense backlash , with certain fans demanding ahri's removal from the group and sending ara hateful messages , including death threats.

isaac took to fancafe to express his frustration , beginning with : "i love each and every one of our fans but this is getting out of hand." he went on to criticize those leaving cruel messages and emphasize ahri's important to the group and formidable work ethic.

however , the most controversial part of his message was the blunt line : "i hate to burst your bubble , but all of your favorite idols are dating. it was never going to be you. go outside."

his words quickly spread throughout the wider k–pop fandom , screenshots going viral on twitter , with some applauding his honesty and looking out for his members as the leader , while others considered the post rude , out of touch , and disrespectful to the fans that had built golden hour's career. the post remained up for an hour before seventh heaven intervened , forcing him to delete it and issue an apology.

isaac's official statement read : "i sincerely apologize for my previous words. i let my emotions get the best of me , and i deeply regret offending anyone. i will be more mindful of my words in the future."

netizens were quick to dismiss the apology as insincere , calling it forced and not a genuine change of heart. on the other hand , some fans expressed disappointment that he was made to apologize in the first place , arguing that he had simply told the truth.

meanwhile , aside from their own initial apologies for surprising fans , have been silent on the matter.

ara is confirmed to be in stable condition after overdosing.

it was initially reported that the former nabillera member was suddenly rushed to the hospital after being found unresponsive in her gangnam apartment yesterday morning.

today , law enforcement informed yonhap news that ara was being treated with narcan— a medication designed to rapidly reverse opioid overdose— before she was transported to the hospital.

when asked for comment , ara's label seventh heaven stated , "we ask that you respect ara's privacy and keep her in your prayers at this time."

fans and ara's celebrity friends have taken to social media to express their concern and well wishes , with #weloveyouara and #staystrongara trending worldwide. the incident has also started conversation online emphasizing the need for better mental health support in the entertainment industry.

as of now , ara remains under medical supervision , and it is uncertain when she will be discharged. seventh heaven has yet to release further updates on her condition or future activies.

our thoughts are with ara and her family.

in  a  shocking  turn  of  events  ,  golden  hour’s  isaac  kim  and  myst’s  shimizu  yumeko  have  suddenly  announced  that  they’ve  welcomed  their  first  child  and  are  planning  to  be  married.  seventh  heaven  ,  both  of  whom  are  signed  to  the  label  ,  confirmed  the  news  at  12:00  kst.

the  agency’s  statement  reads  as  follows  :

“hello.  this  is  seventh  heaven. we  are  pleased  to  share  that  isaac  and  yumeko  have  recently  welcomed  a  healthy  child  into  their  family. the  artists  and  their  families  are  celebrating  this  joyous  occasion  privately  ,  so  we  ask  fans  and  reporters  for  their  kind  understanding. yumeko  and  isaac  will  continue  to  work  hard  as  artists. we  ask  you  to  send  them  lots  of  blessings  and  messages  of  celebration. thank  you.”

a  source  from  seventh  heaven  confirmed  that  the  couple  do  intend  on  getting  married  in  a  private  ceremony  ,  only  to  be  attended  by  family  and  friends.  they  also  added  that  they  wouldn’t  be  able  to  confirm  any  other  details  surrounding  the  engagement  and  the  birth  ,  as  it  is  a  matter  of  the  artists’  privacy.

yumeko , who was placed on an indefinite hiatus back in march due to an undisclosed “illness” , and isaac have both shared handwritten letters on their personal instagram pages announcing the news and apologizing for surprising fans.

the  couple  first  started  dating  in  2016  ,  with  dispatch  revealing  the  relationship  just  months  after  yumeko  debuted  in  i.o.i  ,  after  receiving  cctv  footage  and  intel  from  the  owner  of  a  hotel  they’d  reportedly  been  checking  into  together  for  months.  though  ,  in  december  of  that  same  year  ,  they  were  confirmed  to  have  already  broken  up  ,  due  to  “busy  schedules”.

however  ,  in  2018  ,  it  was  once  again  reported  that  they  were  dating  ,  and  from  then  on  began  a  cycle  of  the  two  breaking  up  and  getting  back  together  for  several  years. due  to  the  on–and–off  nature  of  the  relationship and speculations of cheating  ,  many  considered  them  to  be  toxic  together  ,  leading  fans  and  netizens  to  criticize  both  idols  ,  calling  them  “messy”  and  “unprofessional”.

though  it’s  unclear  when  the  two  could  have  gotten  back  together this time around  ,  given  that  the  baby  is  confirmed  to  have  been  born  sometime  this  week  ,  it  can  reasonably  be  concluded  that  they  reconnected  in  at  least this past  december  or  january.  regardless  ,  they  seem  to  have  moved  on  from  their  rocky  past  ,  with  isaac  writing  ,  “the  most  precious  gift  came  to  us  ,  and  we’re  looking  forward  to  this  new  beginning.”

congratulations to the couple!

a couple weeks ago , naomi utaura , formerly of nabillera , surprised everyone when she directly shaded her juniors , honeylemon.

although both nabillera and honeylemon are both respected figures in the k–pop inudstry and considered icons in their own rights , there's always been contention between their two fandoms , mainly regarded to as silly up until now.

naomi , now working as an actress , was being interviewed by vanity fair when she was  asked  about  her  juniors and their overwhelming success. she responded ,  "i  mean…  nobody  is ever  better  than  the  original  ,  right?  even  that  company  seems  to  know  it  ,  since  they’ve  given  them  several  of  our  throwaways.  best  of  luck  to  those  girls  ,  though  ,  because  the  going  will  get  tough  when  they  run  out  of  concepts  of  ours  to  steal."

when the interview was published , social media erupted , with some agreeing with naomi , some expressing their disappointment in her , and others calling her washed and bitter. despite the backlash , naomi has remained firm in her stance and none of nabillera's other members have commented on the matter.

honeylemon's leader park joori has responded in her speech while accepting the trophy for their newest song new me on music bank today. she gave the usual rigmarole thanking fans and promising to continue working hard , before adding , "and thank you to our ceo for always looking out for us. some people are still so bitter after years of being ungrateful... but with your support we'll continue to shine and be artists that bring pride to our fans and the company." she smiled while indirectly referring to the lawsuit that cost naomi her career in the korean entertainment indsutry.

naomi has yet to respond , but knowing her , it's only a matter of time.

fawn has officially announced her departure from myst.

after seven years with the group , it was announced today that fawn would not be renewing her contract with seventh heaven. instead , she's chosen to continue her thriving career as a soloist with the company's subsidiary label , halo music , under the management of esteemed producer ahn sojung.

this comes just eight months after the group returned from a two–year indefinite hiatus , although fans aren't necessarily surprised. rumors of tensions between the members have been flying since 2021 , when yumeko suddenly announced that she'd given birth. in the two years she promoted as a soloist , fawn's career took off and many noted that she didn't seem too thrilled to be with the group again to promote their comeback single better things last july.

nevertheless , she still included her former bandmates in the heartfelt letter she posted to her instagram today , writing , "thank you for being my sisters and sharing some of the best years of my life with me."

despite the kind message , all four of the remaining members of myst unfollowed fawn on instagram about an hour after the post was made. she later unfollowed them all , as well.

fawn , who's real name is darunee suwannarat , first made her debut as the main rapper of i.o.i in 2016 alongside her best friend yumeko , after placing seventh on the first season of produce 101. once i.o.i disbanded , she debuted once again with myst in 2017 , and began her solo career with the single snappin' in 2019. in 2022 , invu became her breakout song , winning her the title of best solo artist at the mama awards.

seventh heaven has confirmed that myst will go on with its four remaining members— lee eunyu , kitamura namie , shimizu yumeko , and lee haseul— for the time being and are set to comeback with a studio album in the third quarter of this year.

₊˚⊹♡ touch is the first english single by honeylemon. it was released on january 10 , 2025 , through seventh heaven and republic records. the song is credited as being composed and produced by in–house producer lee baekho , with lyric credits going to both baekho and kenzie. the members are currently promoting the single in the u.s. // formatting inspired by @hjnxx <𝟑 .ᐟ

following the release of their fifth mini–album , cherry bomb in november of 2024 , honeylemon's management announced plans to release their first official english single in january. they began posting photo teasers on december 29 , and the song was officially released on january 10. an accompanying music video was uploaded to youtube simultaneously with the single's release , portraying the members as sad and lovelorn before they regain their confidence and move on. currently , the music video sits at 10 million views.

to promote the song , the group performed on american talk shows like the tonight show starring jimmy fallon , good morning america , and the kelly clarkson show , as well as mtv fresh out live. they also did two performances on korean music programs , inkigayo and show! music core , and won five trophies.

while in los angeles and new york , they sat courtside at a lakers game and the lakers girls performed 'touch'. they also collaborated with social media personalities the sturniolo triplets for a video and took a friendship test for buzzfeed , answered their most googled questions for wired , and played a game of 'most likely to...' for variety. these appearances made for plenty of viral moments online , especially on tiktok , with kenzie being the most talked–about member for her looks and sense of humor.

'touch' was a commercial success , peaking at #1 on the circle digital chart for six non–consecutive weeks , #5 on the billboard global 200 , and #24 on the billboard hot 100. it also reached #1 in hong kong , singapore , thailand , malaysia , and japan , as well as the top ten in india and new zealand.

critically , however , responses were mixed. one critic wrote that the song was a jarring downgrade from the boldness and production of the group's previous comeback , "2 spicy" , and gave it two out of five stars in a negative review. meanwhile others wrote about it positively , one calling it a "dreamy and infectious dancepop bop".
