• “Somehow, she’s even prettier.”
• “Seems like she’s matured a lot while I wasn’t paying attention? She looks like that actress from Under The Queen’s Umbrella, seriously gorgeous.”
• “She suddenly became a super gorgeous unnie. When did she grow up like this… I want to see her on stage again soon.”
• “I’m only waiting for all 5 members of NewJeans to come back… HYBE should stop forcing things and let the whole group return.”
