Netizens commented:

No, IU is in her 30s, but she still looks pretty young. Who the hell do you think you are?

She's f***ing 30, so of course she certainly didn't look like a girl anymore, isn't really that obvious? It's not like IU isn't talented and lives off of her girly image, but this person is putting her down with a fact like this. you should take care of your own life.

She does not really look old at all from the pictures that were posted here. She just looks so tired from practicing outside so much. She's so pretty, so why are people saying she looks old?

Why are you comparing her face now to how it looked when she was on "Hyori's Bed and Breakfast" five years ago? Instead, you should try comparing your own face now to how it looked five years ago.

What is this person is talking about? She still appears to look like she is in her early 20s.

What are your thoughts?

Former AOA member Kwon Min Ah—who opened up in the past about being bullied—has once again shared a deep and emotional message on social media, leaving fans feeling concerned and sending love.

On April 23, Min Ah took to her Instagram to write:
“I don’t know if I’ve become completely twisted, or if I’m just scared. Maybe I’m afraid the same thing will happen again. Everything feels scary. And I want to say something sharp to myself too—get it together.”

Along with the message, she posted a selfie where she wore a red knit top, had her hair half-up, and showed a soft pout with a calm expression. Though her outfit and style looked casual, the mood of her words felt heavy.

Fans aren’t sure if Min Ah was directing the message toward someone else or simply speaking to herself. The final line, “get it together,” sounds like a tough love reminder to herself—but also makes many wonder what she’s been going through recently.

People quickly filled the comment section with supportive messages, telling her to stay strong and reminding her she’s not alone.

Min Ah debuted with AOA in 2012 and left the group in 2019. In 2020, she made headlines when she revealed that she had been bullied during her time in the group. The confession caused a huge reaction in the K-pop world, leading to conversations about idols’ mental health and group dynamics.

Recently, she surprised fans when it was revealed she began working as a manager at a dermatology clinic, showing a new side of her life outside of the entertainment spotlight.

Fans continue to cheer her on, hoping she finds peace and happiness in whatever path she chooses next.
