Lovelyz member Jin drew criticism after her comments on Korea's recent elections prompted accusations of right-wing leanings. Online users then highlighted her following of U.S. President Donald Trump.
Jin posted about ballot shortages during the elections and described voting as essential to democracy. Observers linked the shortages to conservative areas and interpreted her remarks as support for election-rigging theories popular among right-wing groups. Users searched her social media activity and noted that she follows Donald Trump. Comments described the discovery as unsurprising yet disappointing, with some citing her past promotion of extreme diets and religious content. Fans expressed mixed reactions on platforms including X, stating the news hurt because Lovelyz ranks among their favorite groups. The discussion remained centered on the idol's public posts and online follows without further statements from the artist or agency.
