Previously on January 8, NewJeans’ Haerin published several photos on the Instagram account “jeanzforfree”, run by the members of NewJeans themselves. The female idol also added the caption, “A little year-end look back. Next time, I will post some landscape photos”.
Haerin’s photos mostly showed just herself, except for an image of two polaroids taken with all NewJeans members. However, in this photo, Minji’s face was “censored” with what looks like black marker, while the other members weren’t.
Upon noticing this, many netizens found this to be inappropriate, even speculating about a possible conflict between the group. However, some defend Haerin, explaining that the female idol was likely “taking revenge” on Minji, who used to put a sticker on Haerin’s face in a photo.
Below are some comments from netizens:
- Posting this is basically an appeal to get attacked. What is it even supposed to mean?
- It’s simply inappropriate to post group photos with only one member being drawn over. It’s not like Minji is making ugly faces either
- Is this HYBE at work to sabotage NewJeans again?
- There are many images of the group with all 5 members. Why would she end the year with a post like this?
- The conflict rumors are ridiculous. Haerin is simply taking revenge. They behave like truly close friends
