Shuhua of i-dle posted a photo on social media that is believed to be with former member Sujin, which has unexpectedly sparked reactions. Recently, she posted several photos along with the caption "Daily Life" on her social media. The published photos included Shuhua going about her daily life. At this time, the last photo Shuhua posted became a topic among fans. It was an ordinary photo of grilling samgyeopsal, but attention was drawn to the hand of the person grilling. This person, who has a tattoo on the back of their hand, was presumed to be Sujin, as she also has a number tattoo in the same position. Shuhua and Sujin debuted in (G)I-DLE in 2018. However, Sujin suspended her activities in 2021 due to allegations of bullying during her school days, and subsequently left the group. Her exclusive contract with the agency also ended, and she has continued her career as a solo artist since November 2023, two years later. When the photo suggesting the two met was published, opinions among net users were divided. One net user questioned, "There was no good way to leave, so why post a photo of meeting? They could meet quietly, right?" Another net user pointed out, "It's not that they should cut ties, but they shouldn't make it public. It's naive thinking." However, some voices argued that the meeting was not problematic. Responses included, "Do we have to censor who we meet?" and "It's understandable they are close since they relied on each other as members," and "It's just daily life, and they didn't post a face photo, so it shouldn't matter." i-dle announced their re-contracting as all members last November, marking their seventh year since debut. They will hold their first Japan arena tour, "2025 i-dle first japan tour [Aoi-dle]," following the release of their Japanese EP "i-dle" on October 3.
