Song Ji-hyo faces criticism for sharing 'Running Man' group photo without Jeon So Min?

2023-11-13
"Running Man", the longest-running variety show in Korea, has caused quite a stir on the internet. After members, Gary left the show in 2016 and Lee Kwang-soo in 2021, and new members were added, fans' beloved Jeon So-min announced that her last recording would be on October 30th.
On the episode aired on the 5th, which was also the day Korean media broke the news, it was Jeon Somin's penultimate recording. In the show, the older members teased Jeon Somin, asking, "Didn't you say you were leaving? Why are you still here?" The sight of them joking around warmed and amused the fans.
However, the day after the show aired, on the 6th, Song Ji-hyo posted a group photo with the members of "Running Man" on IG and wrote in the post "I ♥ Singapore". In this photo, only Song Ji-hyo, Yoo Jae-suk, Ji Suk-jin, Kim Jong-kook, HAHA, and Lee Kwang-soo were seen, with no sight of Jeon So-min, who had announced her last recording on October 30.
After Jeon So-min left, 'Running Man' started filming in Singapore. Singaporean media reported on the 4th that the members of 'Running Man' visited local night markets and shopping streets for filming. After Jeon So-min's departure, 'Running Man', which was reorganized into a six-member system, also took photos with fans during the filming process, which was very friendly.
On the other hand, Song Ji-hyo suffered from malicious comments due to the six-person photo she uploaded. Many netizens pointed out that Jeon So-min has not yet fully exited the show, but Song Ji-hyo, seemingly indifferent to Jeon So-min's feelings, prematurely revealed the formation of a six-person team for "Running Man". Especially, as it has been quite a while since Song Ji-hyo uploaded related photos of "Running Man", she has faced even more criticism and malicious comments.
This is not the first time Song Ji-hyo has received malicious comments. As a veteran member of "Running Man", she has long drawn viewers' dissatisfaction due to her casual attitude during filming, which is perceived as dragging the show down. Many netizens even left comments asking Song Ji-hyo to leave the show. Despite Song Ji-hyo putting more effort into her appearance and participating more actively in interviews and games, she still couldn't avoid the malicious criticisms and comments from netizens.
Many netizens also expressed: "I get choked up seeing the photo of the six people from 'Running Man' because of Jeon So-min. Many fans are still not prepared for Jeon So-min's departure, but posting a photo of the six-member group seems a bit too early." "Because Jeon So-min left the show, They seem to joyfully upload the photo of the six members." "They rarely upload group photos from 'Running Man', but they uploaded one immediately when Jeon So-min left," and "They have no sense of timing," "It is you who should leave," etc.
