Speculation is buzzing among netizens regarding the closeness of IVE members Jang Wonyoung and Ahn Yujin.

A recent post on an online community forum titled, "Annyeongz seem like they're not that close," has captured the attention of fans.

"Annyeongz" is the affectionate nickname given by fans to the friendship between Ahn Yujin and Jang Wonyoung, who both rose to fame through the idol survival show 'Produce48' and were former members of the girl group IZ*ONE.

The post's author expressed their thoughts, stating, "IVE's Annyeongz don't appear as close with each other lately. As a devoted DIVE (IVE's official fandom), I've heard a lot about how close and special their bond is".

The author added, "However, it seems like Rei and Ahn Yujin are closer, while Jang Wonyoung seems somewhat distant. They appeared closer during their IZ*ONE days, and as a fan, it saddens me to see this change."

In response, netizens shared their views:

"I'm not a fan, but it looks like this post is trying to suggest that two people who are obviously close are not."

"Close or not, in the workplace, not everyone needs to be best friends. Sometimes, you only talk about work. They spend a lot of time together, so it's natural that they might not click in every aspect."

"It seems like Jang Wonyoung might be setting boundaries."

"I'm not entirely sure. Maybe they don't talk as much because they're already so close. Considering Jang Wonyoung and Ahn Yujin's personalities, it's a possibility."

"The dynamics change in the real world compared to school."

"Why does it even matter? Is it such a big deal if they're not as close as before?"

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.
