The latest photos of Jewelry member Seo In Young's wedding have sparked rumors that former member Cho Min Ah was ostracized by the group.

On February 26, Seo In Young had a wedding ceremony with her non-celebrity husband. On this day, former Jewelry member Lee Ji Hyun posted photos congratulating Seo In Young and garnered much attention as all the former Jewelry members - Park Jung Ah, Lee Ji Hyun, Ha Joo Yeon, and Kim Eun Jung - however, there was one noticeable absence, Cho Min Ah.

Many wondered where Cho Min Ah was at the wedding, and some even accused Cho Min Ah of intentionally not attending the wedding due to pent-up feelings against the group. However, Cho Min Ah took to social media and stated she didn't even receive an invitation to the wedding.


Additionally, Cho Min Ah brought up the fact that while the other former Jewelry members appeared on various television shows together, she was not invited to any of the shows, nor was she contacted about appearing on them with the group.

Cho Min Ah explained, "I didn't say anything about this for the past 8 years, but I talked to Jung Ah unnie about this. I told her, 'If you guys are going to appear on a show together as Jewelry, then at least tell me so that we can go on the show together,' but I didn't hear back from her. I told Lee Ji Hyun unnie the same thing, but she didn't even read my message."


When netizens criticized Cho Min Ah for not attending an important event of a former fellow member. Cho Min Ah replied, "Some people were saying to me, 'Is it so hard for you to go to a friend's wedding?' but I wasn't even invited to the event, so how can I know the date and time of the event to attend? I never cursed at anyone, nor did I bully someone. I tried to live a life that would not be shameful. 'Jewelry' had a lot of member changes, and I don't understand why my family and I have to suffer because of people talking about being part of 'Jewelry' when they appear as a group."


Meanwhile, every time Jewelry members appear in programs together, many have been asking where Cho Min Ah is. Since Cho Min Ah would be the only member not seen with the other members, there have been speculations that Cho Min Ah is not on good terms with the other Jewelry members.

To be fair, the group had a total of ten members, though not all at once, with multiple lineup changes. If these five developed a close enough bond to keep in touch, leave it at that. Don't go forcing friendships and making things weird for people.

There must be a reason why she was left out. We should hear from both sides.
