A recent video clip showing a non-interaction between IVE’s Wonyoung and ENHYPEN’s Sunghoon has gone viral on social media, stirring up discussions in the K-pop community. The two, who were previously co-MCs on Music Bank for about a year from 2021 to 2022, have gained attention over the incident, reigniting conversations about the pressure idols face when interacting with one another.
What Happened In The Clip?
The clip in question was taken from a March 2022 episode of Idol’s Snack Spree, where Wonyoung and Sunghoon appeared together. In the video, Wonyoung struggles to open a pack of snacks, while Sunghoon, seated nearby, remains passive, avoiding helping her.
“This is so funny. Jang Wonyoung: ‘Don’t help me no matter what.’ Park Sunghoon: ‘Don’t ask me to help you no matter what,’” wrote the netizen who reposted the clip on Threads.
The exchange of awkward glances between the two idols immediately became a hot topic, with many fans interpreting it as a sign of the extreme scrutiny placed on K-pop stars. The original poster also commented on the situation, clarifying that the lack of interaction was likely due to concerns over potential backlash.
“At that time, Sunghoon and Wonyoung were MC partners and got a lot of hate, so they had to avoid this kind of situation as much as possible,” said the original post.
The viral clip sparked a wave of reactions from netizens, many of whom expressed frustration over the pressures idols face regarding even the most basic social interactions.
“They both look so embarrassed. Their expressions are so funny. So cute,” one commenter noted.
“Idols these days are so pitiful. They can’t even open a pack of snacks [for each other],” another added.
Some users expressed how they felt the idols had managed the situation humorously and professionally, while others voiced their frustrations with the constant scrutiny and criticism aimed at these young stars.
“They relaxed all of a sudden [afterwards]. So funny,” one fan remarked.
“Antis are so annoying,” another user pointed out, highlighting the difficulties idols face in navigating public perception.
