Girl’s Day Hyeri’s Viral Instagram Post Gets “Criticized” By Korean Netizens For Unexpected Reason
It’s not uncommon for celebrities to grab headlines with their online activities. However, Girl’s Day‘s Hyeri has recently set online communities abuzz for a reason that has left many netizens both amused and slightly perplexed.
Just 5 hours ago, Hyeri shared a series of candid shots from her latest photoshoot with DAZED Korea, and it has since gone viral, gathering attention across various online communities. But what’s stirring up conversations isn’t what you might expect.
The former idol has been the subject of public attention lately, especially in the wake of her relationship drama with actor Ryu Jun Yeol. The latter was spotted on a date in Hawaii with actress Han So Hee — igniting a brief online dispute given Hyeri’s long-term relationship with Ryu Jun Yeol before their breakup late last year. Despite the drama, both parties have since issued apologies, and the waters seem to have calmed.
Yet, Hyeri’s recent viral Instagram post is not due to the remnants of past relationship drama but something quite mundane — her decision to wear shoes while sitting on a couch.
The seemingly innocuous choice has sparked a wave of reactions and “criticism,” propelling the post to viral status. A thread on TheQoo discussing this particular aspect of the photos has amassed over 70,000 views and 330 comments. Meanwhile, the pictures themselves have garnered more than 700,000 likes on Instagram.
The photos themselves showcase Hyeri in a stunning light, her hairstyle and proportions earning praise for their striking beauty. However, amidst the admiration, it’s the shoes-on-couch scenario that has dominated the conversation, emphasizing how, sometimes, it’s the smallest details that catch the Korean netizens’ eyes.
- “I didn’t think she was pretty, but seeing her in person totally blew my mind… Her proportions are insane.”
- “No way, I wasn’t the only one who thought of Sojin, LOL. Maybe it’s because of the hairstyle, but she looks beautiful.”
- “Could you please take off your shoes…?”
- “The hairstyle suits you, lovely.”
- “Your hair looks pretty, but those shoes…”
- “LOL, I thought I was the only one bothered by the shoes on the couch, LOL.”
- “Ah, I want to try that hairstyle, but it probably won’t look the same on me.”
- “Crazy beautiful.”
- “Oh, really gives off a Sojin vibe, LOL.”
