So yeah, literally, they're friends. 😁 https://t.co/e6lQVjHCQcKim Se-jeong revealed while promoting Today’s Webtoon that she has developed a five-tier system to categorize her friends and acquaintances. At the very top are her best friends, TWICE’s Jihyo and ASTRO’s Cha Eun-woo, but the second level also contains people she is close to. The third level is reserved for those she recognizes and greets whenever she sees them. Her Today’s Webtoon co-stars, Nam Yoon-su and Choi Daniel, feature in this category. Next are the people she has heard of but doesn’t say hello to. Finally, the fifth level is reserved for strangers.𝙲𝙷𝙰@se____leneOmo Jihyo commented on Sejeong's IG post!jihyo: you're pretty, I miss you(papago)1192230Omo Jihyo commented on Sejeong's IG post!jihyo: you're pretty, I miss you(papago) https://t.co/nhImVvyzv5Kim Se-jeong ranked her former I.O.I and Gugudan bandmates in the second category."Level 2 friends would be my members that I promoted with, like Gugudan and IOI.”While some netizens felt that the Plant singer’s comments were "relatable," others felt that she was being “careless" for "publicly ranking her friends."Ade@cheesiestbear@gtfoho3s @pannchoa Not just opposite gender, if you read they’re just mad in general why she took names and how ranking people you’re close to isn’t nice 🙄.
