An Min Young, a standout from 'Single's Inferno 3', initially caught the public's eye with her striking looks and budding romance with crowd-favorite Lee Jin Seok.

However, the discovery of her Instagram account led to a wave of criticism, not for her natural beauty, but for her seemingly unrecognizable appearance in her posts.

Accusations of heavy Photoshop and filter use were rampant among netizens.

Comments from netizens included:

"Omg im so shocked of how much editing you do in each of your photos.. hope you learn how to embrace your natural self..you are already beautiful… this photo looks nothing like you"

"The filter is too much"

"Someone please take photo shop away form her"

"GİRL!!!! You're already beautiful"

In response to the backlash, Min Young addressed the comments in a post-show Instagram update. She admitted to feeling "embarrassed" while watching the show due to her perceived flaws.

An Min Young stated, "Thank you, everyone, I love you. And thank you to everyone who watched the show. I was so embarrassed watching my flaws and it made me want to try harder. I will strive to be more humble in the future."

Interestingly, her recent Instagram updates have garnered a more positive reception.

Previously, An Min Young was known for her heavy use of filters in her online content. However, her latest posts show a less filtered and more authentic version of the Min Young that fans fell in love with on 'Single's Inferno 3'.

Netizens have since praised An Min Young's beauty in the comments section. Unlike her previous posts, there were no criticisms about her use of filters.

Fans are hopeful that An Min Young will continue to reduce her use of filters, recognizing the beautiful woman that they all see.

IU recently revealed that she watched her own concert film in a public theater, but shockingly, no one recognized her—even when she dropped a hint!

On February 27, a new video featuring IU was released, showing her inside a car on her way to Daejeon.

She excitedly shared, “This is a surprise stage greeting for UAENA! I picked this location through a ladder game when I did stage greetings.”

Previously, IU had let fate decide which city she would visit after her stage greetings. She happily said, “There are UAENAs everywhere I go. Wherever I go, it's a flowery path.” The game ultimately led her to Daejeon.

IU originally hoped to explore the city, saying, “I wanted to visit Daejeon's pride, Sung Sim Dang, and walk around, but my team said it wouldn’t be possible. The lines are too long, and it’s freezing outside.” She sighed, adding, “So, things turned out this way.”

Dressed up for the occasion, IU smiled, saying, “I don’t get to meet UAENAs in Daejeon often, so I wanted to make a surprise appearance looking my best.”

She also joked about enjoying surprise events, adding, “As long as Hanteo oppa drives me safely, I’m happy.”

But what really caught fans' attention was IU’s unexpected confession—she had secretly watched her concert film in a theater, but no one noticed her! “No one recognized me at all. There weren’t that many people, and it was a weekday… but still! I even gave a hint!” she said, sounding both amused and surprised.

Later, when IU finally appeared at the theater, her fans were overwhelmed with emotion. Some even burst into tears, prompting her to gently say, “You really didn’t expect me to come, right?”

After wrapping up her stage greeting, IU laughed at herself, saying, “Wait, did I just do a 40-minute one-woman show? I must have talked so much.”

On her way back to Seoul, IU reflected on the day, sharing, “It was so cold today. I shook hands with all the UAENAs. My hands are usually cold, and since the weather was freezing, I think I made a lot of people’s hands cold, too. But after touching so many warm hands, mine became warm, too. I still haven’t washed them.”

Her love for her fans truly knows no bounds!
