Funny how I was standing in this exact place at The MixC Shenzhen just a month ago, and today Ningning is there for the Bvlgari event. What a coincidence.
She's the only Chinese celebrity I truly admire.
Shenzhen is such an amazing city, so modern and beautiful.

KARINA about the importance of family
-i am a daughter who started working in society at a young age. my mom would always tell me not to worry, because no matter what i do, i always have a place to come back to. they always tell me, "even if you fail, you can always come back to your family. having a place to come back to is a blessing/happy thing, so you are a happy person."

aespa GISELLE in a new interview with Vogue Korea for Dogue.
Vogue Korea: Many international artists involved with “DOGUE” mentioned wanting to visit a concert venue together. Where would you like to take Cooper?
🌙: A concert venue is a definite no—it’s way too loud. I’d love to show him the ocean in Hawaii. We’ve only been to the beach together once, back in Japan. I really love Hawaii; I’ve been there twice this year alone, and I want him to see the beautiful scenery. I’d love for him to run and play freely by the sea.

Giselle would definitely be devastated if Cooper ever passed away. I can’t even imagine it. I still remember when I was younger and cried so much after finding out that my cat had died in a car accident. 💔🥺
aespa GISELLE recalls her 13th birthday when she adopted Cooper with Vogue Korea for her special interview for Dogue:
Vogue Korea: GISELLE recalls an unforgettable thirteenth birthday. The pivotal moment came when she lived with her aunt for a while around the age of six and spent time with a dog. Upon returning to her family home, she begged her parents to adopt a dog, eventually discovering a baby Cooper hiding in the closet as a surprise gift. “You know how it is, right? Greyhounds look mature when they grow up, but as puppies, they are incredibly cute! The moment I opened the closet, out came this tiny, wiggly, adorable Cooper. It remains one of my happiest memories."
GISELLE beamed as she reminisced about that time. Just as her childhood in Tokyo was special, the daily life she and Cooper are building together in Seoul now is equally precious. Although the weight of reality has increased, Cooper has become a source of vitality for GISELLE—dispelling the fears of living abroad—and a steadfast companion who protects her. Their bond has grown even stronger. “My parents love him too, of course, but I was the one in the family who wanted Cooper the most. Since he’s getting older, I really wanted to spend his final years by his side.”
