Shinji posted on her Instagram, "What should I write? Mang-gu told me to write this!" along with a photo.
In the photo, Shinji is seen sitting on blue stairs, either looking at the camera or smiling brightly. Her new calm hair color catches the eye, and her outfit—a knit zip-up in green and ivory paired with a checkered skirt—creates a lively and cheerful vibe. Her naturally styled bangs and distinct facial features give her a softer impression. Even in a relaxed pose, her signature bright energy and friendliness shine through.
Fans reacted with comments like "Did you dye your hair?" "Always supporting you," "So pretty," "Fighting," "Even prettier in person," and "Hope you're always happy."
Meanwhile, Shinji is set to marry singer Moon Won, who is seven years her junior, next year. Moon Won previously revealed during a meeting with Koyote members that he is divorced and has a daughter, which led to some opposition from Koyote fans. Shinji addressed this by saying, "I saw the comments about Moon Won. It didn't feel good, and I think it affected the members too." She added, "I know most people are concerned about me, but since the wedding is still far off, please watch over us slowly."
