Line distribution in i-dle has long been a point of debate among fans, particularly when it comes to Shuhua.
Over the years, fans have often argued that she receives significantly fewer parts compared to other members.
Now, a post about the interaction between Soyeon and Shuhua has gone viral, reigniting debates.
i-dle recently revealed the behind the scenes footage of the group recording their latest track “mono.” The viral post claims that Shuhua was noticeably struggling during her parts.
I watched the behind-the-scenes video of i-dle’s mono recording, and Shuhua was honestly shockingly bad, but Jeon Soyeon kept praising her.
She was seriously showering her with compliments. But meanwhile, Shuhua was tugging at her hair, barely listening.

Op also shared that having watched the clip, they don’t understand why fans in the past argued against Soyeon when it came to line distribution.
Watching Jeon Soyeon direct Shuhua was honestly pitiful. It probably has something to do with how Shuhua’s fans previously organized a mass campaign demanding Jeon Soyeon leave the group because Shuhua had fewer parts during “Hwaa.” (After that, Shuhua started getting parts almost on par with main vocalist Miyeon.)
Shuhua is seriously blessed.
Where else would she find a leader like this?

The post sparked even more scathing reactions from Korean netizens in the comment section.
- “If Jeon Soyeon had personally chosen the debut members from the start, Shuhua probably wouldn’t have made it in.”
- “It’s a group Jeon Soyeon created. What’s this nonsense about organizing a campaign to kick her out? LOL. Shuhua fans are hilarious.”
- “She just knows how to handle her, that’s all.”
- “What was she even chosen for, honestly?”
- “I really wish they’d stop debuting Chinese members…”
It seems that a simple interaction between the two girl group members in the studio has triggered a viral controversy.
