THIS 5th-Gen K-pop Idol Worries Fans After Unfollowing Agency, Deletes Posts on Social Media Account

MADEIN Gaeun has worried fans regarding her latest activity on social media.

On November 11, fans expressed their concern over Gaeun's social media activity, as the idol had deleted her posts on her official Instagram account.

Furthermore, Gaeun unfollowed her agency 143 Entertainment, its CEO, and removed MADEIN from her profile.

On social media platform X (formerly Twitter), the news caused anxiety among fans, who hoped that the latest update on Gaeun wasn't related to something serious. Meanwhile, others weighed in theories about the idol's social media activity.

Their sentiments were also based on how unusual activities on social media can indicate signs of a departure or conflict with the agency.

"Hopefully it doesn't mean anything since she still follows the members and MADEIN," one netizen shared. "Hopefully everything is alright."

Another commented, "I feel like she lowkey hates the transition of LIMELIGHT to MADEIN, it seems to me like she feels overshadowed by others."

However, some encouraged others to avoid speculating.

Later on, 143 Entertainment released an official statement, disclosing that Gaeun would be undergoing a temporary hiatus due to health reasons, and that MADEIN will continue its activities with six members.

MADEIN debuted on September 3 with its first extended play "Rise" and its title track "Uno." The group was initially under the name LIMELIGHT but re-debuted later on.

The group has seven members, namely Gaeun, MiU, Suhye, Serina, and Nagomi, alongside former Kep1er members Mashiro and Yeseo.
