Some fans supported the OP’s tweet, claiming that it shows HYBE is trying to copy NewJeans, but others said that Wonhee seemingly deserves it due to ILLIT fans’ comments about Minji.

this photo basically shows what newjeans were vs the cheap knockoff hybe is trying to replace them with 😭 https://t.co/J7jY3SEr26

Yet, many fans hit back at the post’s narrative, hating how fans were being malicious toward two young female idols and calling them both beautiful. Many didn’t understand how fans could claim to love K-Pop and Korean culture but be so rude about their visuals and cyberbully idols for their visuals in the name of fan wars.

I find it odd how kpop stans will complain about how normalized plastic surgery is but then will continue to make post like these against idols that don’t get anything done to their face and alter their ethnic features. Mind you, hyein has a similar side profile as wonhee aswell. https://t.co/FPX6VjRJ3k pic.twitter.com/zWf3nnzJKg
