(G)I-DLE Yuqi Reveals 'Flirting' With Same Guy as Minnie, Group Set THIS Rule After Incident

During the broadcast, Yuqi started narrating:

"We're in our seventh year now, so I think we can talk about this. I was roommates with Minnie. We were extremely close. Back then, we had no secrets and we were like 16 or 17 years old. There are boys and girls, right? For the first time, there was this guy who made my heart flutter."

She continued:

"At that time, there was a person I liked. There was someone who contacted me. That's when that friend's name appeared on Minnie's cell phone. I've never heard of him being in touch with Minnie unnie, so I wondered, 'Is he also talking to her?'.

I felt nervous and frustrated that I couldn't hold it any longer and I asked, 'Are you talking to that friend, too?' and she (Minnie) said, 'You too?'"

Shuhua who heard this can't help herself but make a side comment, shouting:

"He's a trash!"

Minnie recalled:

"For the first time, things became really awkward for us. We had no secrets, but we felt very guilty since we didn't know each other. Since then, we decided on the rule that when we debuted as members of the same group, we should not like the same guy, no matter what."

Soyeon then continued that this rule applies to all of the members and explained:

"We decided to do the same in the group. Tell us as soon as you start to contact him. It's on a first-come, first-served basis."

Nevies, Netizens React to (G)I-DLE Yuqi & Minnie's TMI

Following the story, this immediately spread among Nevies (fandom) and other K-pop fans, showing interest in the same guy that they flirted with back then.

As fans emphasized that they both knew him during their pre-debut days, fans are guessing that he was a trainee as well back then, and it is also possible that he's also an idol by now.

Netizens are also quick to feel jealous of the guy who was able to talk with the two stars who both exude unique beauty and personalities, not to mention that they are currently two of the most popular idols.

However, the guy wasn't able to avoid the criticism of web users who tried to dash on the members at the same time, calling him "cheater."

Here are some of the comments:

• "No, because I need them to drop THE NAME."
• "The way he was definitely an idol, too."
• "Bro went for the two-in-one package."
• "This is so NewJeans 'Hype Boy' coded."
• "K-pop dating tea must be so good I need more idols to spill."
• "Can they talk more about something like this?"
• "So he was unofficially officially two-timing?"
