In the latest twist of celebrity gossip, the K-pop world finds itself embroiled in controversy as unfounded allegations against Jeon Somi and TWICE's Chaeyoung surface, drawing sharp criticism from netizens.
On April 5, Xports News purportedly reported rumors suggesting that Jeon Somi might have been the source behind the revelation of Chaeyoung's relationship with Zion.T.
The report insinuated that Jeon Somi leaked the news in a purported act of revenge, citing a seemingly innocuous photo uploaded by Chaeyoung as evidence.
Netizens swiftly took to social media platforms to express their dismay and disbelief at the baseless accusations.

Many condemned the reporter responsible for the article, labeling it as sensationalist and speculative fiction rather than genuine journalism.
HERE ARE SOME OF THE NETIZENS' COMMENTS:
What's up with reporter these days?
It was already requested not to spread the photo precisely because she deleted it for a reason, and we need to respect that. The photo isn't anything bad, to be honest, but it was already requested not to keep spreading it (:
I didn't realize, I mean, with everyone analyzing everything, WTF with people getting upset about that.
This person is writing a fictional story, Lol.
You guys are doing too much. Why don't you write a novel while you're at it
Solidarity Among Fans
The overwhelming sentiment among netizens was one of solidarity with Jeon Somi and Chaeyoung, rejecting the unfounded claims and urging for responsible reporting.

Awaiting Official Response
For now, both Jeon Somi and Chaeyoung have yet to officially address the allegations, leaving fans to await further developments with bated breath.
Knetz hate it so much when they see a good relationship between idols that they're ready to stoop so low just to stir things up. You guys are begging for a drama when clearly the girls are just fine. Get out and touch some grass! Leave the girls alone!
