Netizens expressed confusion after IVE's Gaeul seemed to be missing an arm in the group's recent concert backstage photo.
On October 8 KST, IVE held Day 2 of their 'Show What I Have' 1st world tour concert in Seoul. Following their concert, 'IVE OFFICIAL' took to their Twitter page to share some backstage and concert stage photos of the group. While the atmosphere was great, as both the artists and fans had a great time, one photo immediately furrowed the eyebrows of many netizens. The photo in question was a group photo of the IVE members backstage, where the girls were all lined up in their white stage outfits posing for the camera. Upon a closer look, member Gaeul seemed to be missing an entire right arm, cut off right at her elbow.
Netizens were quick to criticize IVE's Twitter account manager, suspecting that this odd photo had likely resulted from unnecessary photoshop of the IVE members.
Netiizens commented:
"What kind of photo editing do you need to do, in order to make an entire arm disappear?"
"I get that it was at night, but how can you just upload a photo without a member's arm, without even double-checking?"
"Even Wonyoung's arm looks weird in the photo."
"Wow, such genuine work (sarcasm)."
"Camera was on night mode I guess..."
"Aren't Rei and Gaeul already famous for being very thin among 4th generation idols? I wouldn't have found it necessary to photoshop them."
We know. AKP covered this story six hours ago. I have not seen any website accidentally cover the same story twice as often as AKP does.
