“Never Beating the Co-workers Allegations” – Netizens Discuss IVE Leeseo’s Behaviour During IVE’s First Anniversary Video

As one of the most sought K-pop groups in the industry right now, the group IVE from Starship entertainment is getting a lot of attention from the media.

During IVE's 1st anniversary video "HAPPY IVE DAY" netizens can't help but notice the apparent awkwardness of their group hug, particularly involving member Leeseo after being seen awkwardly hugging member Gaeul.
