Actress Jeon Jong Seo, known for her strong presence in both films and photoshoots, is facing criticism over her recent Instagram activity. Her friendship with Han So Hee, which was made public in a photoshoot, has taken a backseat to the new controversy. Jeon has been caught following an account that has left negative comments toward Girl’s Day member Hyeri, raising eyebrows among fans and netizens alike.
The Account in Question
On Instagram, Jeon Jong Seo follows only 19 accounts, which is why her following of the handle @catsaretheavengers immediately stood out.
This private account, which displays a picture of the planet Saturn as its profile image, was found to have posted several antagonistic comments on Hyeri’s Instagram.
Under one of Hyeri’s posts from April 25, a user had commented negatively about Han So Hee, suggesting that the actress had lost all her endorsement deals.
In response, @catsaretheavengers fired back, defending Han So Hee and mocking both Hyeri and actor Ryu Jun Yeol, Hyeri’s long-term boyfriend.
Here are the interactions:
@pej_521521_: So sad how Han So Hee’s trying so hard to buy back the followers she lost.
@catsaretheavengers: Still has more than your unnie and Ryu’s followers combined… Come on…
@catsaretheavengers: It’s ridiculous that you think she can buy 17.3M followers in the first place…
@catsaretheavengers: It was good when Hyeri got a lot of Likes thanks to Han So Hee, huh? Too bad you don’t get that many anymore. Aw.
The malicious comments left many wondering why Jeon Jong Seo would follow such an account. The account’s true identity is still unknown, but netizens have been quick to speculate about the person behind the account.
Han So Hee Connection?
What fueled even more speculation is that the Saturn picture used by @catsaretheavengers had previously appeared on Han So Hee’s Instagram in a post from July 2. This coincidence has sparked a rumor that @catsaretheavengers might actually be Han So Hee herself or at least someone close to her.
