Netizens wonder if Girls' Generation's Sunny has joined her uncle Lee Soo Man’s new company

AKP STAFF

Fans are buzzing with speculation about whether Girls’ Generation’s Sunny has officially joined her uncle Lee Soo Man’s new company.

On a popular online forum, netizens analyzed a close-up from a recent video featuring Sunny and Sooyoung, where Sunny is spotted wearing a unique beaded bracelet. Upon closer inspection, fans noticed that her bracelet featured the letters and number "A2O," which also happens to be the name of Lee Soo Man’s new Singapore-based entertainment company.

As previously reported, Lee Soo Man, the founder and former head producer of SM Entertainment, is preparing to reenter the music industry with a fresh lineup of “Rookies” (pre-debut trainees). His company, A2O, which stands for "Alpha to Omega," aims to pioneer a new music genre called "Zalpha-Pop." 

This fresh brand, targeting the global "Zalpha Generation" (a blend of Generation Z and Generation Alpha), reflects his vision for a new era in pop music.

Netizens shared their reactions to Sunny’s potential move, noting it “makes sense” for her, as Lee Soo Man’s niece, to join her uncle's venture. Last month, she was also spotted in China with Lee Soo Man and composer-director Yoo Young Jin, possibly scouting new talent.

Here’s how fans are reacting:

"Uh, what’s this?"

"Isn't he her uncle? Sunny's dad is Lee Soo Man's older brother."

"Since Sunny is his niece...?"

"Since he's her uncle, she might go."

"Sunny is his niece, so it makes sense she'd follow him. She completed her contract with SM, and Lee Soo Man left around that time, so there's no real awkwardness with SM."

"Oh."

"She’ll probably go."

"Going seems like the better option."

"Since she’s his niece, it might be much more comfortable for her to go."

"She'll go, they’re family."

"If it were me, I'd go too since it's a family company."

"A recent photo surfaced of them together, and since Sunny is Lee Soo Man's niece, she might be leaning that way? Plus, she left SM a while ago."

"I think she’s already gone. This time, I feel like we'll see Girls' Generation as a full group at the SM concert. Will she appear?"

"Ah... I feel a bit sad somehow ㅜㅜ"

"Since she's his niece, maybe it’s better than going somewhere less fitting?"

What are your thoughts?
