K-Pop Star Jeon Somi Faces Public Decorum Debate Over Taxi Photo
K-pop singer Jeon Somi has sparked a public decorum debate with a photo taken inside a taxi.

On the 27th, Jeon Somi shared several photos and videos on her Instagram with the caption "One random day." The posts showcased her enjoying a carefree time in Japan.

One particular photo, showing Jeon Somi with her feet up inside a taxi, drew criticism from some netizens. They argued that placing feet on the seat while wearing shoes in a taxi, used by many, is against public decorum.

Conversely, others defended her, noting that her feet did not touch the front seat, thus seeing no issue. They urged restraint, suggesting that excessive criticism based on a single photo without context is unwarranted.

Meanwhile, Jeon Somi debuted with the group I.O.I in May 2016 through Mnet's survival program 'Produce 101.' The group is reportedly preparing for a reunion to mark their 10th anniversary, with venue bookings already completed. Member Yoo Yeonjung hinted on a radio show last year, "I can't reveal details, but think of us reuniting in the warm spring when we debuted."
