WINNER’s Mino Unfollows Nam Tae Hyun After Being Cropped Out of Instagram Photo
WINNER's Mino unfollowed former member Nam Tae Hyun on Instagram after the latter cropped him out of an uploaded photo.
According to allkpop, netizens have discovered that the 23-year-old rapper and fellow member Lee Seung Hoon are no longer following the 22-year-old former YG singer. The rest of the boy group members Kang Seung Yoon and Kim Jin Woo, however, are still among Nam Tae Hyun's social media followers.
What made Mino's move especially interesting was the fact that Nam Tae Hyun posted Friday an old Allure pictorial where Mino was cropped out of the uploaded photo.
Nam Tae Hyun took a break from their group activities in October due to worsened psychological health. He's reportedly suffered from mental health issues since his trainee days.
This caused the group's comeback to be delayed.
Mino confessed in an interview that their delayed comeback made him feel impatient.
"We don't promote often, and there have been a lot of incidents where our song [releases] have been postponed," Soompi quoted the rapper as saying. "I am always sorry and grateful to fans who wait for us. We are making the effort to make up for it with even better songs."
He added, "Of course, there are times when I get impatient because I know that fans have been waiting a lot. But I think I can lose something when I am impatient. We are making the effort to show you a more polished version of us."
YG eventually announced Nam Tae Hyun's departure from WINNER in November and cited that the singer's psychological recovery remains unpredictable.
The two-year-old boy group posted December 9 their first photo as a four-member group. The remaining members showed smiling faces and looked friendly.
Nam Tae Hyun also uploaded several photos of himself on Instagram. He was also spotted DJ-ing at a club in Gangnam last week.
