NMIXX’s Seolhyun’s personal Instagram account was recently leaked online by a user named @BBOSONGEEEEE on various popular online communities. This incident highlights the ongoing issue of privacy concerns for K-pop idols on social media.
Unexpected Turn of Events
The leaked photos, primarily selfies and glimpses into Seolhyun’s daily life, surprisingly didn’t spark outrage among Korean netizens. Many comments expressed a sense of indifference towards the leak, even seeing it as a positive reflection of Seolhyun’s down-to-earth personality.
Supportive Comments
Netizens praised Seolhyun’s genuine and wholesome image, evident even in her private moments. Here are some of the comments:
- “The focus shouldn’t be on these details. The photos are actually quite sweet.”
- “It’s normal for idols to have personal social media accounts. The real problem is those who invade their privacy.”
- “Her natural charm shines through. It’s endearing and strengthens her positive image.”
- “This incident only makes her genuineness and innocence more apparent.”
- “Those trying to cause trouble only ended up highlighting her pureness.”
- “Seolhyun’s behavior shows she’s a truly kind person.”
International Fans Share Similar Sentiments
Similar to Korean fans, international followers echoed the sentiment that the leak was ultimately a futile effort. They expressed more concern about the invasion of Seolhyun’s privacy rather than the content itself.
Previous Controversy and Recent Activities
This leak comes after rumors swirled in 2022 about the legitimacy of Seolhyun’s personal Twitter account. Recently, on the YouTube show ‘Season B Season,’ Seolhyun revealed her admiration for a member of TWICE as the reason behind signing with JYP Entertainment.
Seolhyun disclosed that she chose JYP despite successfully auditioning for SM, JYP, and YG Entertainment, specifically mentioning her fandom for TWICE’s Sana. The show’s host, BewhY, also complimented Seolhyun’s resemblance to a mix of TWICE’s Tzuyu and Sana.
NMIXX’s recent EP release, ‘Fe3O4:Break,’ has solidified their place in the music industry, garnering significant attention and popularity.
