Chanhyuk: Company doesn’t matter, but it’s about the people you work with. “There’s also something like this. Even though we say we created a “company,” we just used that word because it’s easier for people to understand. But in the end, it’s not really about the company, it’s about the people. Like, who you work with. And what kind of experiences you share with them, that’s what really matters the most. So with these people, whether we go, volunteering or travel somewhere, we always move together as one group. Because if not and later on, when I write and release a song, if we hadn’t shared those experiences, I’d have to explain everything. Like, “I went somewhere and had this kind of experience…” But since we’ve all lived it together, I can just say, “Hey, I wrote this kind of song this time,” and they’ll be like, “Oh, yeah, I get it. I know exactly what that is.” It just makes everything so much faster, right?”

🐸 “Suhyun actually has more talent than what she’s shown so far. She’s good at dancing, her expressions are great, and of course, she can sing—she has it all. Recently, we started living together, right? And that made me want to sort of ‘produce’ her life. Since she’s still within the range where I can reach her, and she still listens to me well, I find myself saying, ‘Then let’s try this, let’s do it like this.’ I get excited imagining things for her, almost like I’m dreaming on her behalf. Watching her live a better life and picturing that for her gives me a sense of fulfillment. So I think we’re at a stage where, in the not-so-distant future, Suhyun might be able to release her own album.” ❤️🥹 :inslowmag:

ahh… listening to the song feels like the whole album is indeed truly dedicated to suhyun🥺 from the track 1 itself, it’s like talking to someone who’s completely worn out, it contrasts the city with this “rumored paradise,” which isn’t really a place but more like healing, peace, or something more meaningful. it’s basically saying that the struggles you go through, the pain, the exhaustion, even the “blisters” are part of the journey, and there are things you’ll only understand once you leave what’s familiar. and even if you feel like something inside you is broken or can’t be fixed, there is a place (or state) where that pain won’t define you anymore. and maybe the most important part is you don’t leave just to escape. you leave to find something real, like love, meaning, or yourself. 🫶🏻 Paradise of Rumors MV:

a little tmi abt akmu’s independent label:🤭 AKMU left YG this January 2026 and started their own company called “Cemter of Inspiration,” which literally means a spring where inspiration comes from. Chanhyuk said they chose that name because ever since before debut, even during auditions, he’s constantly been asked, “Where do you get your inspiration from?” and that question never really stopped. So he was like, “Let’s just call the place we’re in the source of inspiration,” since they’re basically always “scooping” ideas from it every day. What’s funny is how they run it LOL😭 they call their employees “Yeonggam” (Inspiration), meaning people who give them inspiration. Chanhyuk is the “head of the center,” and Suhyun is literally called “Princess.” And yes, their staff actually address her like that in real work situations, like “Princess, I’m contacting you about accounting,” and she replies “Yes, Yeonggam” 🤣🤣 They even introduced their managers as “Go Yeonggam” and “Hwang Yeonggam,” and when asked about company welfare, one of them said at first it felt like a downgrade from their previous job🤣 but after a couple of months, he realized it was actually pretty good, to the point he felt like he could “bet his life” on it. And apparently Suhyun teases them a lot about that HAHAHA

IU & Lee Sangsoon talks about AKMU’s new album as IU recommend’s AKMU’s “Joy, Sorrow, a Beautiful Heart. 🥹 🐥 This is a song that was released yesterday, AKMU’s “Joy, Sorrow, a Beautiful Heart.” 🧑🏻 I also watched the music video. It was such a beautiful MV. 🐥 Have you seen the “Paradise of Rumors” music video? 🧑🏻 Yes, There was another one released along with it too. 🐥 Another music video? 🧑🏻 There were two in total, and they were filmed with a similar tone, and honestly, it just makes you look forward to AKMU even more now. 🐥 To me, although they’re my (hoobae) juniors, and also like my really cute younger siblings, but as musicians, they’re incredibly admirable. 🧑🏻 These days, you really feel like, “Wow, there are truly genius musicians out there.” 🐥 Geniuses, really. 🧑🏻 It actually makes me feel relieved, in a way. 🐥I listened to the whole album yesterday, and I just thought: it’s so great that AKMU exists. 🧑🏻 I really hope musicians like them continue to come out in our music industry. 🐥Right, right. 🥹❤️🌸

AKMU thanked IU🐥 for the shoutout yesterday! ❤️ and yeah even here, they will really tease each other! 🐰 (reading a comment) “For AKMU, did you hear that yesterday on Lee Sang-soon’s radio show, IU gave you a shoutout? She said, “They may be my cute younger siblings, but as musicians, I truly respect them, they’re geniuses,” and praised you highly.” 🐰 Thank you so much. Yes, we heard it. 👩🏻 Since you worked with IU on NAKKA, when you release an album like this, did she reach out to you or give you any kind of feedback? 🐰 We don’t really keep in touch often, but more than anyone else, we always support each other from the heart. We keep up with each other’s activities, and she’s someone we respect and admire the most, a senior we truly love. 🐰 And she actually said that her most cherished junior isn’t AKMU as a whole, but specifically Lee Suhyun. (😅🤣) 👩🏻 Ah, she really picked one person. 🐰 She really singled me out and said, “Suhyun, you’re the junior I cherish the most.” Hearing that… she’s someone I love so much, truly like an older sister to me. When she gave that shoutout, I immediately cried. What do I even do? I just feel nothing but gratitude, always… that kind of feeling. 👩🏻 Ah, then Chanhyuk, you seem a bit frozen there. 🐸 No, I mean… I don’t want to start anything like, “Oh, she likes me more,” some kind of tension. I’m not interested in that. 🐰 Yeah, me neither. No fighting. It just facts. Fact check. 👩🏻 From the younger sibling’s perspective. 😅🤣🤣

🧑🏻 No, but what really amaze me is that the two of them debuted at 16 and 19, right? And now it’s already their 13th year since debut. They’ve become independent from their company. 🐸 And now that I think about it, I should’ve given you my business card… oh, I actually have one here 🧑🏻 It says Lee Chanhyuk ‘Cemter Director’ ㅡ contact information is confidential. What is this? 👸🏻 So you’re just giving out the name? I mean, at this point… 🧑🏻 Did you print a lot of these? 🐸 If you look at it, the surface is kind of rough, right? You actually have to tear each one by hand, they’re all handmade. So whenever we need one, we tear it like this. 🧑🏻 Suhyun, you must have something too, right? What’s your role in the company? 👸🏻 Yes, I’m in charge of being the ‘princess’ at the Cemter of Inspiration. 🧑🏻 I see. And what does the role of a princess involve? 👸🏻 The role of a princess isn’t that extensive, but it’s actually very important. First of all, the most important thing is bringing smiles, giving a lot of smiles. And also, just existing as a princess… existing well. Because that in itself is valuable. 🧑🏻 Alright… that’s… okay? 👸🏻 Yes… I think so. 👸🏻 And sometimes, we have a full team meeting once a week, and I recommend animes during that time. 🧑🏻I see… this interview is getting more and more difficult. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

“I get excited imagining things for Suhyun, like dreaming on her behalf. I find satisfaction in picturing her living a better life. But the truth is, Suhyun doesn’t really like performing. She tried it once with ‘NAKKA,’ and after that, she fell into a slump. So I was like, ‘Okay, okay, okay. We still have to keep making music.’ Then something interesting happened: while watching her start to dream again, I began to think, ‘I want to try more performance too.’ And now, it’s like that again. She actually has more talent than what she’s shown so far. She’s good at dancing, her expressions are great, and of course, she can sing, she has it all. Back then, I didn’t really know what she wanted to do. And she didn’t know either. But now, she’s in the process of figuring that out, trying things, kind of archiving herself. And I think, in the not-so-distant future, she might be able to release her own album.” 🥺 ah i think chanhyuk is soft-launching suhyun’s full album soon. and can i just say… or haven’t we even said it already?? that he is the best big brother ever… how he choose his words, describing / talking about suhyun. aaaaa!! 🎥 eyesmag
