In the video, the Starship family showed their sibling-like chemistry and fans who watched the clip raised high expectations about their wholesome interactions.
Amid the anticipation, IVE Rei suddenly became the talk of the town when an internet user noticed changes in the female idol's face.
In a post, the OP wrote:
"A lot of Starship kids are coming out next week on 'Knowing Bros.' (and) looking at the preview, IVE Rei's double eyelid came out really weird.
What did you do to her charming face? Are you kidding me?
Starship made Bona look old by touching her eyes even when she was so pretty. It is Rei's turn this time?"
