On the June 8 episode of MBC's popular television show "Hangout with Yoo," viewers were treated to a heartwarming yet humorous revelation about friendship dynamics among K-pop idols.
The show featured an indoor flea market where Kim So Won, a former member of the disbanded K-pop girl group GFRIEND, was a guest.
Upon her arrival, Kim So Won received an enthusiastic greeting from Mijoo, her friend from another disbanded girl group, Lovelyz. Their animated interaction prompted host Yu Jae Seok to comment, "I heard you two are very close."
Kim So Won affirmed, "Yes, we are. But we haven't seen each other much lately."
The conversation took a lighthearted turn when Mijoo, laughing awkwardly, admitted:
"Yeah, we didn't meet up as much after I started my relationship." Kim So Won then jokingly added, "She abandoned me after she started dating!"

Curious about their bond, the "Hangout with Yoo" members delved into how the two became close friends.
Mijoo explained, "So Won is actually younger than I am, but we're really good friends. We often used to promote our albums around the same time."
Later in the episode, while Kim So Won was browsing through items, Yu Jae Seok expressed his admiration for GFRIEND's music and requested a performance.
Despite initial hesitation, Kim So Won obliged, saying, "Oh, it's been so long, like three to four years. I've forgotten the moves, but I'll try to remember as much as I can."
To everyone's delight, Kim So Won delivered a flawless dance performance, proving that her skills remained sharp despite the passage of time.
This episode comes in the wake of Mijoo and Song Bum-keun's relationship confirmation on April 18, following rumors about their romantic involvement.
The change in Mijoo's social dynamics with her friends like Kim So Won adds a relatable layer to the complexities of maintaining friendships amidst new romantic relationships.
