Recently, news has been circulating about NewJeans’ treatment under SOURCE Music, where they trained before eventually becoming part of ADOR for their debut.

On July 24, Yuju posted a story on her Instagram account. While it isn’t uncommon, netizens couldn’t help but notice that the sound she had used was NewJeans’ song “Hurt.”

While Yuju didn’t make a comment, netizens unsurprisingly thought there was meaning behind the specific song and timing of her story. GFRIEND trained and debuted under SOURCE Music, so many think it might be linked to that and assumed that Yuju might be showcasing her support for NewJeans.

I said it~ LOL

GFRIEND has always been very positive about NJ. The last time they were talked about this much, Umji uploaded a post with their song to. This doesn’t mean at all that MHJ is innocent. She’s a manipulative and liar bitch but clearly she’s not the main issue for GF https://t.co/K6Z6NDPJeE
