Following news that Apink's Bomi has been in a relationship with Black Eyed Pilseung Rado for eight years, footage of the idol supposedly leaking STAYC's "STEREOTYPE" before its release has been shared online.
Black Eyed Pilseung are the main producers of STAYC and have been in charge of their discography since their debut in 2020. They have also worked with several K-pop groups, including Apink. With news that Rado and Bomi are dating, people are wondering if that's how Bomi was able to spoil STAYC's song before its release.
Keep on reading for all the details.
Did Apink Bomi Spoil STAYC's 'STEREOTYPE' Before Release?
A clip of Apink member Bomi singing "STEREOTYPE" by STAYC before it was released is circulating online.
In the video, Bomi is seen hosting a live stream with Hayoung. As they read the comments, Bomi suddenly starts singing "Oh baby, baby, baby," which is the final line of the chorus of STAYC's "STEREOTYPE."
The issue? Bomi sang the line seven months before STAYC made their comeback.

At the time, fans of Apink believed Bomi had spoiled the girl group's new song. They were left shocked when, instead of Apink, STAYC released the song on September 6, 2021. Following the release, fans theorized that Bomi could have sung the guide or the demo, and STAYC ultimately released the song.
However, following reports that Bomi and Rado have been dating for eight years, people believe that she could have had the chance to listen to the song since her boyfriend helped produce the track. If she had been given the chance to listen to the song before its release, it could have gotten stuck in her head, leading her to sing it accidentally.
so that one time when bomi sang stereotype...... PLEKWJSEJEHFH

Soma Pandas (Apink fans), however, believe that the song was originally meant to go to Apink. They claimed that it was meant to be an Apink comeback and that the girls even had photo shoots to prepare for the release, but it was ultimately scrapped and given to STAYC instead.
