In a community thread, Minnie sparked reactions from netizens due to her runway performance and debut. The clips and photos uploaded caused mixed reactions from internet users, who criticized Minnie's makeup, walk, and the video's background song choice.
On October 1, K-netz established a forum titled, "(G)I-DLE Minnie Debuts on the Miu Miu Runway With Her Walk." The author then uploaded content showing Minnie treading the runway, but netizens focused on the idol's facial expressions and styling more.
However, some were endeared by her "nervous" look during the walk.
I'm feeling so bad for her. It was her first time and she was so nervous too. The hate is so unnecessary and why tf some nevies are talking shit abt her. Like shut up, she did a pretty good job. I'm so proud of her. Love u Minnie https://t.co/kfbeiA0wLK
