Spotted: The absolute peak of K-pop fame is apparently just eating spicy chicken feet in a van alone.

Saw this in the parking lot behind the studio tonight. Everyone talks about the glitz and the perfect stage outfits, but she was just sitting there with a giant box of dakbal, staring at her phone with the saddest face I've ever seen on a celebrity. No manager in sight, just her in a baggy hoodie. The moment she realized someone was looking, she put on that huge signature idol grin and waved like everything was fine. It felt so incredibly lonely, honestly.

Wait, is this ? I thought she was at the afterparty?

She looks exhausted. Can we stop acting like idols are machines for two seconds?

I just want to know if she actually finds any peace when she's alone.

Keep it civil in the comments, guys.

It's the contrast that kills me. That smile in the photo vs the real look on her face.

I saw her yesterday and she seemed so happy, what changed?

I've worked on set with her. She's always like this after a show. It's like she switches off the moment the lights go out.

That is definitely her. I recognize that hoodie from her live stream last month.
