GFRIEND delighted fans with a heartwarming "Source Music" interaction with LE SSERAFIM.

Yuju posted a photo on her Instagram story featuring the members of GFRIEND and LE SSERAFIM. All the members were making hand hearts together and she tagged both her fellow GFRIEND members and LE SSERAFIM members, creating a buzz online.

While fans were excited to see this interaction between Source Music girl groups, the photo also sparked a debate. 

Korean netizens commented:

"It's great that GFRIEND is back, but it feels like they're being used to repair Source Music's image. If they had just debuted LE SSERAFIM as GFRIEND’s juniors instead of disbanding the group and creating controversy, the public sentiment wouldn’t have dropped so drastically. What is this?"

"Source is using GFRIEND to climb out of the hole they dug themselves... But regardless, I’m so happy GFRIEND is back."

"When everyone was criticizing the company for disbanding GFRIEND, even coming up with conspiracy theories, now they’re suddenly praising them for reuniting the group? It’s fascinating how quickly public opinion changes. This is why entertainment companies never go under."

"If Source had just done this from the start, things wouldn’t have gone so badly... Seriously, Source."

"Their intentions are so obvious, it’s laughable."

"GFRIEND doesn’t seem to hold any grudges against Source and is happily re-debuting, but only BUDDYs (GFRIEND’s fandom) are upset."

"As a BUDDY, can you honestly defend Source Music and So Sung Jin? We know better than anyone how abruptly and unfairly it all ended. Now, they're obviously trying to restore their image. BUDDYs are staying quiet because they know that for group activities, Source is the only option."

"I hope GFRIEND’s 10th anniversary album comes out soon."

"It doesn’t feel like Source Music’s image is improving, but more like they’re just using GFRIEND."

"They ditched fromis_9 and brought back GFRIEND. Typical of HYBE—discarding what they don’t need anymore."

"As a GFRIEND fan, I’m genuinely upset at how transparent Source Music’s motives are. They disbanded the group when they didn’t need them, but now that reviving old groups is trending, they bring GFRIEND back to fix their image. I hate this, and I hate how some people are just falling for it without any backbone."
