Shuhua of i-dle Sparks Controversy with Soojin Photo!
Shuhua has reignited a sensitive topic in K-pop after posting a photo that seemingly features former member Seo Soojin’s hand. Fans are now buzzing about the implications.
On September 29, 2025, Shuhua shared a carousel of images labeled “daily life.” Among them, a BBQ dinner photo includes a hand grilling meat, which fans quickly identified as Soojin’s, thanks to her distinct tattoo.
Soojin left i-dle in 2021 amid serious bullying allegations, which were strongly denied by her. The situation spiraled into a massive controversy, forcing Cube Entertainment to announce her departure despite her protests.
After leaving, i-dle continued with five members while Soojin kept a low profile. Recently, she resurfaced as a solo artist but has remained distant from the group.
Now, Shuhua’s casual post is reopening discussions fans thought had settled. Reactions vary widely—some applaud Shuhua for maintaining their friendship, while others criticize her for appearing to revive the controversy.
The topic is still sensitive in South Korea, and fans are closely monitoring the situation.
