Net users who saw the photos left comments like 'Good memories,' 'Ojeongbakhap (a coined term from the initials of Oh Hayoung, Joy, and Yerin) is the best!' 'Love the 96 line!!' and 'It's been over 10 years since graduation.' They were born in 1996 and are now 29 years old. Although they debuted in different groups, they have deepened their friendship while working together for over ten years.
