‘You need a lesson': Nana doubles down on criticism of THE BOYZ's Sunwoo over viral video with guard (VIDEO)
SEOUL, April 13 — Actress and former After School member Nana has reportedly stood by her criticism of THE BOYZ's Sunwoo, after a viral video of the idol sparked controversy over his behaviour toward a security guard. According to a report in The Korea Times, the footage, which circulated widely on social media, was said to show Sunwoo dropping his wireless earbuds and remaining still as a security guard picked them up and returned them using both hands. Sunwoo reportedly accepts them with one hand, without bowing or visibly thanking the guard — a gesture netizens have called disrespectful. 'He needs to be scolded,' Nana was reported to have commented under a post of the video. In response to fan backlash, she later doubled down in another comment, reportedly saying, 'Where did you learn to act like that? You can tell everything from one thing.'

The Boyz bring out LP No. 3
The Boyz made a comeback with third full-length album 'Unexpected' on Monday. As the album title suggests, the band has explored new genres and concepts for the album and the members are happy with the results. Although they are bringing out a new album in less than five months, a short term in K-pop cycle, the bandmates were more excited than concerned, Kevin said as they could 'feel how everyone was serious about music.' The fact that it is their first set after signing with new agency, One Hundred, in December, was not much of a factor in putting together an LP. 'It was more about wanting to make another memory as a full group,' said Sunwoo. Lead single 'VVV' best sums up the album and 'the music video and the choreography inspired by boxing are really cool,' according to Sangyeon. He will not be able to promote the album, however, as he is enlisting on the day of album release. He will serve as a member of Army marching band.
