Controversy sparks as netizens discuss fromis_9's Lee Chae Young and her Instagram story that catches their attention.

Over the weekend, Lee Chae Young, a member of the K-pop group fromis_9, delighted fans by sharing some artistic photos on her Instagram and Instagram story, offering a glimpse into one of her beloved hobbies.

However, observant netizens quickly noticed an object that drew their attention - an e-cigarette discreetly tucked into a pocket in front of Lee Chae Young.

As e-cigarettes continue to be a topic of heated debate in the K-pop world, netizens once again had varied reactions.

Here are some comments from the internet:

"Smoking isn't a big deal; many idols smoke. Why all the fuss?"

"It's not surprising anymore since so many idols have been caught smoking outside their schedules."

"Idols are just like regular people. They smoke, drink, and yes, they even poop!"

"She's an adult, so there's nothing wrong with it."

"Instead of bothering idols who haven't broken any laws, focus on those who have."

"If it were a male idol, fans would find it cool and support him."

"Are we even sure that's her? Didn't she recently change her hair color to black?"

"People are overreacting. It's not like she took a deliberate photo to promote e-cigarettes. It was probably an accident. Let's just relax."

"Considering she might be in a car, it could be someone else's cigarette. Aren't we jumping to conclusions? I heard those e-cigarettes are strong even for experienced smokers."

But some people were more negative and said things like:

"This behavior is typical of a K-pop group nearing disbandment, acting as if they don't care about anything."

"I've always felt that Lee Chae Young had a delinquent image. Even now during promotions, she acts like she's everyone's boss."

"As a Flover (fromis_9's fan), I think she has the right to smoke since she's an adult. But why did she have to post a photo? It hasn't been a week since Ji Sun's incident. Fans can't protect you forever."

"It's true that female idols should keep their smoking habits hidden to maintain their image. It might not be the most relevant thing, but a lot of female idols smoke. It's often suggested to them when they debut and start feeling stressed as public figures."

Interestingly, a similar e-cigarette was also spotted during a recent live broadcast by Noh Ji Sun, another member of fromis_9, which further fueled the discussions surrounding this topic.

Producer Rhymer had a funny and proud moment on TV when he revealed that he got more screen time than actor Kim Woo Bin — and his parents couldn’t be happier.

On the May 1st episode of tvN’s variety show Handsome Guys (episode 21), cast members Cha Tae Hyun, Kim Dong Hyun, Lee Yi Kyung, and Shin Seung Ho were joined by guest Rhymer, filling in for Oh Sang Wook, who was away for the Fencing Sabre World Cup.

The team took on the challenge of suggesting lunch and dinner menus for hardworking office workers.

This wasn’t Rhymer’s first appearance on the show. He had previously joined a special episode focused on people born in the Year of the Snake, where he stood out with his unique and quirky charm.

During the episode, Cha Tae Hyun brought up how Rhymer’s screen time had felt a bit short the last time he appeared.

But Lee Yi Kyung jumped in, saying, “It seemed like you were on a lot,” and Rhymer agreed, adding a proud moment from home.

He said, “It ended up being longer than I expected. My parents even said, ‘You were on longer than Kim Woo Bin,’ and they were really happy about it.”

Rhymer’s lighthearted story had everyone laughing, showing how even the smallest moments on screen can be a big deal for proud parents.
