In the behind-the-scenes videos, netizens noticed that during the group’s introduction, Mingyu repeated the names, calling Seoyeon “Seoyonie,” a cute, more informal form. Many thought it showed that due to Mingyu and Jihyo being close for a long time, he has probably been around the young idol since she was a child and has watched her grow.

Mingyu calling Seoyeon “Seoyeonie” 🥹 It’s probably because he’s known her since she was little considering how long he and Jihyo have been friends !
