Minji (NewJeans) smoked on the livestream, was immediately called a "bad girl", unworthy of being "BTS sister"?

Recently, NewJeans had a livestream with fans to celebrate the 1st anniversary of the Bunnies fandom. Here, member Minji took action that caused mixed reactions.

Accordingly, throughout the livestream, the girls took turns expressing their sincere gratitude to Bunnies for the love and support of fans. However, the moment member Minji held the whistle to join the party made many people "freeze" because they acted like they were smoking.

Specifically, many people believe that instead of holding and holding the whistle with her thumb and index finger in a "normal" way, she uses her index and middle fingers. When brought to his mouth, Minji has a movement reminiscent of inhaling and exhaling smoke. Worth mentioning, this action of her is very natural, making many people wonder if Minji has a habit of smoking.

After the livestream, the moment quickly went viral on social media. Minji's controversial gestures and actions quickly sparked mixed opinions. Some assert:

- She definitely smokes! That's absolutely what a smoker would do. She looks so natural, too!

- Actually, a non-smoker can act like that, but really this got me thinking

I couldn't believe she smoked. She's an idol!

- It's definitely habitual.

However, there were also comments defending Minji:

- So what. Does she smoke or not, anyway?

- Don't be ridiculous. She just accidentally used those fingers. Stop making up stories.

- You're just seeing what you see.

"Why did you say she did it out of habit?" Chances are her hand gesture is coincidental!

Previously, it was considered wrong for K-pop idols to smoke, so many fans were shocked by the suspicion that Minji smoked. There are even suggestions that NewJeans members quit smoking immediately if they actually use this stimulant.

It can be seen that, despite only debuting for a short time, in July 2022, the members of NewJeans have continuously achieved many achievements, even being appointed to ambassador positions alongside stars with admirable fashion resources. This is also controversial.

Earlier, when Chanel chose Minji as an ambassador, many people thought that she was not "qualified" to take on this role.

Other Chanel ambassadors from Korea currently include BIGBANG's G-Dragon, BLACKPINK's Jennie, actors Kim Go Eun, Gong Yoo... The above-mentioned artists have been operating in the entertainment industry for a long time, achieved many great achievements, had to prove their ability and far-reaching influence in the fashion segment to be trusted by the brand to "choose to send gold". Therefore, many people question whether Minji is too immature to play the role of seniors in the Chanel cast.

Fans of the singer believe that Minji shaking hands with Chanel is only sooner or later. NewJeans' playful style of remixing Chanel's vintage outfits brings a breath of fresh air to the brand — as shown above when the group attended the Beauty No.1 De Chanel Garden pop-up event in Seoul. Especially when NewJeans, although it has only launched Kpop for a short time, has a strong fan base, continuously achieved success in the music industry, and quickly created a foothold in Gen 4 Kpop groups.

Minji is also not a dreamer in the realm of luxury fashion. This girl has appeared many times in outfits, handbags and accessories of the French fashion house. The move serves as a premise, revealing the official partnership between Minji and Chanel. Therefore, Chanel's appointment of Minji NewJeans as ambassador was not decided overnight.

Until now, NewJeans is the first Gen 4 K-pop group to be "close friends" with four global luxury brands at the same time. This shows that famous luxury brands that are difficult to recruit ambassadors are gradually "falling in love" with the heat of 5 girls.
