Recently, Shin Ye Young expressed on Facebook how she felt wronged and bemoaned the unfairness of the criticism she received after her appearance on 'Superstar K7', and her rant has belatedly caught the attention of the media. She wrote, "I'm definitely a victim of manipulative editing. The 'me' shown on broadcast is mostly a made-up concept. The problematic parts of the broadcast were when the videographers approached me with hidden mics, initiated conversation while pretending to be all empathetic... but they were actually secretly filming, and when around ten videographers shoved a mic in between my legs and filmed me when I politely declined to be filmed due to my poor health at the time."

She explained, "There are definitely sound reasons as to why I said the things I said then. On the show, they never explain those reasons and construct a story based on random cuts they stitch together. Right before the airing of the problematic episode, I got a call from the writer in charge [of the show]. The writer told me not to explain myself on social media no matter how unfairly I may be portrayed," shocking those who read her confession.
Earlier last month, Shin Ye Young had been swept up in a controversy regarding her attitude in her rival mission with Cheon Dan Bi. The two contestants were practicing Sung Si Kyung's "Goodbye One More Time" but because of her poor health, Shin Ye Young had a hard time with the high notes. During the rehearsal, their vocal trainer pointed out Shin Se Young's lackluster performance and Cheon Dan Bi had suggested that the two swap their parts. Shin Se Young had then said, "I think [Cheon Dan Bi] is jealous of me," spilling tears, which led the viewers to criticize Shine Se Young for being selfish.
