On May 24, Joy revealed a new look with a chic bob haircut and a choker, paired with a two-piece outfit that balanced softness with a subtle edge. After her performance in Abu Dhabi, she shared a warm message thanking international fans for their support and expressing her love for the city.
She is also preparing to release Love Conditions, a collaboration track for the film Even If This Love Disappears from the World Tonight, set to drop on May 27. On the personal side, she continues her public relationship with singer Crush, recently drawing attention when he performed at her sister’s wedding, showcasing the couple’s steady connection.
