Minzy Takes Center Stage in NewJeans, Showcasing Care for Members

Minzy of NewJeans has once again demonstrated her role as a central figure in the group, showcasing her leadership and care for her members. While her dazzling stage performances are well-known, it is her thoughtful and warm treatment of her teammates that has recently drawn renewed attention. ADOR released a behind-the-scenes video titled "2026 Summer of NewJeans" on the official NewJeans YouTube channel on the 24th. The video captures the members filming their 4th anniversary content in Los Angeles, offering a glimpse into their natural daily lives. Particularly notable was Minzy's quiet yet firm presence. While Hanni was filming in front of the camera, Minzy was seen quietly spending time in the background. She had started drawing, and only after realizing she was being filmed did she react with a surprised laugh. Her doodles, starting with a four-leaf clover and then clouds and grass, culminated in a rabbit drawing behind Hanni, creating a warm atmosphere even in small playful moments. After completing her own individual filming, Minzy did not leave the set immediately. Instead, she stayed until the end of Hanni's final shot. Her care was especially evident when Hanni struggled with tuning her guitar. Minzy approached her first, asking, "Aren't you cold?" to check her condition. When Hanni replied that she was fine, Minzy responded with a witty compliment, saying, "You look like a very soulful band guitarist." Hanni also remembered this moment as special. After the filming, she said, "The guitar and the grass felt natural and familiar," and added, "And Minzy came to see me." Though just a brief comment, it was filled with the trust and affection between members. Minzy demonstrated the meaning of team relationships by staying to watch Hanni's moment even after her own schedule was complete. Minzy's other charm was also evident during her individual filming. She personally sat in the driver's seat to learn how to operate the vehicle for a driving scene. When the car started moving, she excitedly said, "I'm driving in LA," showcasing a human side different from her calm stage persona. After filming, Minzy thanked Hanni, saying, "Thank you so much for being my daily secretary today," and the two ended the day with laughter, saying, "It was really fun." Minzy has served as the stabilizing center of NewJeans since their debut. On stage, she displays a powerful presence, and off stage, she carefully monitors her members' emotions, maintaining the team's balance. This behind-the-scenes footage clearly illustrates why Minzy holds such an important position within NewJeans. Leadership does not always mean leading from the front. Sometimes, it means quietly standing by and making others' moments shine. As Hanni said, "Minzy came to see me," the footage revealed another form of power that drives the NewJeans team forward.
