AKMU's Lee Su-hyun Opens Up About Overcoming Slump with Brother's Support

AKMU's Lee Su-hyun recently revealed her struggles with a slump and expressed gratitude towards her brother, Lee Chan-hyuk, which has become a hot topic.

On March 27, tvN's 'You Quiz on the Block' official SNS shared a preview video of the upcoming April 1 episode. In the video, AKMU met with Yoo Jae-suk to discuss their upcoming fourth studio album.

When Yoo Jae-suk asked, "I heard you two live together. Who suggested it first?" Lee Chan-hyuk admitted, "I suggested it," confirming that they are currently living together.

The highlight of the video was Lee Su-hyun candidly sharing her past experience with a slump. She confessed, "It started as a work-related slump and escalated into a severe life slump." She added, "I was in such a serious state that I didn't even realize it. My brother pointed it out, saying that saying 'I'm okay' seemed the most dangerous." She expressed her gratitude for her brother's willingness to help her.

Listening to her story, Lee Chan-hyuk said, "I felt that if I didn't take care of Su-hyun now, she might ask me years later, 'Why didn't you help me back then?' I didn't want to be that person." He continued, "I wanted to help her blossom, just like I create music. I hoped she could experience the world as I see it."

In response, Lee Su-hyun said, "He's my savior. Having such a wonderful brother and a family that never gives up on me is a blessing," creating a heartwarming atmosphere.

Meanwhile, AKMU parted ways with YG Entertainment last year and established their independent label, 'Inspiration Well.' They announced the release of their fourth studio album on February 23, marking their first in seven years.
