In particular, the episode attracted the attention of K-pop enthusiasts as she finally reunited with Purple Kiss Chaein for the first time in 10 years since SBS' "K-Pop Star Season 3," touching viewers.

Aside from showing their dance prowess by covering the song, "Upside Down," the two also completed their reunion with a commemorative photo after the broadcast.

While a lot talked about their beautiful friendship, other netizens, however, were more invested in Chaeyeon's appearance.

According to netters, the female idol has more mature visuals now, compared to when she was still active as IZ*ONE's main dancer.

In the released photo, Lee Chaeyeon showed off her sharp eyes, nose, and jawline. On top of that, her Ashton's gray wavy hair and her clear eyes were recognizable well. Among her features, what stood out most was her slimmer face, losing the chubby cheeks she has during her group activities. Some people also emphasized that her nose bridge got higher, implying a 180-degree change in appearance.

With this, the idol was accused of doing plastic surgery on her face. On Instagram, Korean web users bombarded her posts with criticism and hateful comments about her visuals.

Some of the comments left are:

  • "As expected. Looks like people nowadays are doing plastic surgery all over the place."
  • "Awww, you look prettier before."
  • "You just look old, why is that..."
  • "What's wrong with your nose?"
  • "Anyone can tell there's something wrong with her nose."

Malicious commenters continued to torment her on her posts, not only accusing her of going under the knife but went on by criticizing her performance as a soloist.

Fortunately, Lee Chaeyeon's fandoms, WIZ*ONE (IZ*ONE fans) and CHAERISH (her solo fandom) always got her back and immediately defended her from hateful words.

To prevent the idol from seeing more negative comments about her, Chaeyeon's supporters counterattacked by leaving cheering messages for the idol, reminding her that she's always pretty despite any change in her face, as well as she has top-tier skills and experience that everyone was envious of.

Lee's fans responded:

  • "No, you are so pretty."
  • "These people's lives were all miserable they get satisfaction by judging other people's lives, I think. However, Lee Chaeyeon is doing fine and happy so you all were still losers."
  • "We love you so much our precious Chaeyeon!"
  • "Chaeyeon, you've always been like yourself, then and now, so let's ignore all the bad people's words. Let's only look at the pretty thing, just like what you are."
  • "Please continue to smile a lot. You don't know how much you encourage me when you dance and sing hard, most especially when you are smiling."
