Despite the wholesome post, eagle-eyed fans noticed that Gaeul was missing an arm in one of their photos. DIVEs then concluded that the bizarre occurrence was the fault of excessive editing by the group's agency, Starship Entertainment.
See the photo below:
- "Maybe her arm just did that."
- "It's not just Gaeul's arm. There are inconsistencies all over this photo and they were definitely editing solo pictures to put together. Wonyoung and Yujin are actually not standing next to each other."
- "Look at the bottom of their legs. Some contain different curtaining than others and the floor ends in different places."
- "Wonyoung's arm doesn't match with Gaeul's position. They just didn't have a picture of the whole group together, so they did the worst job ever in editing them."
In other news, IVE will release their upcoming EP "I've Mine" and title track "Baddie" on October 13, at 1 p.m., KST.
