2NE1 is currently in Pyeongchang to perform in a concert. This place looks beautiful! I do hope that Dara gets some time off to “hit the slopes”. She has been working so hard lately that she surely deserves a much needed rest. We all know how much she loves to snowboard. Hopefully, she gets a chance to.

SHINee‘s Minho is much beloved for his talents, but now his appeal got kicked up another notch after netizens espied his chivalrous manners towards 2NE1‘s Sandara Park.

Snapshots from an Etude commercial shoot were shared online under the title, ”Minho taking care of Sandara. It’s heartwarming”.

The two stars were reportedly on standby, and Minho made sure to take care of his co-star by ensuring that she was protected from the cold. Minho was seen putting a jacket on Sandara several different times, as the photos show him wearing different outfits. Sandara looks a bit taken aback by Minho’s manners, who is actually 7 years younger than her.

Prior to this incident, Sandara had previously mentioned on SBS‘s ’Strong Heart‘ that “I like younger boyfriends. I’d like it if he would have a cute appearance but have a masculine, tough personality.” It seems that without knowing it, she went on to describe SHINee’s Minho indirectly.

Netizens commented, “Nuna is pretty~ Replay~ kekeke”, “Minho is handsome and even has nice manners”, “They look good together”, and “I would totally support this couple.”

This video is a refreshing insight into Pop Artist Mari Kim. She was the one who created the art for 2NE1’s 2nd Mini Album as well as their “Hate You” Music Video. Mari Kim also shared about how YG kept on telling her to draw Dara thinner and thinner in her art. Check out the full interview below:

Here’s a fun trivia for you guys shared by the wonderful people of MYX Philippines:

“FUN TRIVIA! We have insider information that the guys of ZE:A share the same make-up artist as 2NE1’s Sandara Park. Mie, the make-up artist, worked with the 2NE1 member before working with ZE:A. Mie reported to Sandara that she’s currently in the Philippines who then relayed the message to our insider who promptly met with Mie while they were taping for MYX. It’s a small world after all!”
