Seo In-young has shared her honest feelings regarding her conflicts and relationships with her fellow Jewelry members.
A video titled “Why did Jewelry’s Seo In-young and S#arp’s Lee Ji-hye cry while talking about the past?” was recently released on the YouTube channel ‘Mipji-aneun Gwanjong Unnie’.
In the video, when asked who she fought with most in Jewelry, Seo In-young admitted, “To be honest, I didn’t get along well with Lee Ji-hyun. Back then, I wondered why she was acting like an ice princess.” She added, “We’re very close now and worry about each other when we talk, but our vibes just didn’t match when we were younger.”
She continued, “That’s why I hung out with Jo Min-ah. But now, I haven’t been in contact with Min-ah. I feel sorry about that. Min-ah always reached out to me, but I was going through some difficult things.”
She confessed, “Min-ah isn’t the type to just say what I want to hear. I wanted her to tell me I was right about everything, but I hated hearing things like ‘I don’t think that’s quite right,’ so I just stopped contacting her. I think that was my own shortcoming. That’s why I didn’t invite her to my wedding. I’m sorry.”
Hearing this, Lee Ji-hye remarked, “If Min-ah was the only one not invited to the wedding, she could definitely feel hurt.”
Previously, Jo Min-ah was swept up in feud rumors after she did not attend Seo In-young’s wedding in 2023.
At the time, Jo Min-ah expressed her disappointment, saying, “How could I know to go if I wasn’t invited?” She added, “Even while we were in contact personally, since the show ‘Three Wheels’ in 2015, I’ve watched on TV as the other three recorded shows like ‘Sugar Man’ and ‘Together with God’ without any notice to me, as if I’d been stabbed in the back.”
She took a firm stance against critics, stating, “Someone messaged me asking if it’s that hard to attend a friend’s wedding, but how would I know where and what time it was if I wasn’t invited? I have no reason to be criticized or talked about behind my back.”
She further added, “Regardless of what happened within the group 20 years ago, I thought we were building a new friendship as we met again over time. While I feel deeply hurt that my calls weren’t answered and I wasn’t invited to a precious day, I’m trying to believe there was a reason for it.”
