„Of course, when it’s each other’s birthdays, we report on each other’s current status and talk about trivial things (simple chitchat).” – Mashiho
In recent news, Fans of the K-pop group TREASURE raised concerns when members Yedam and Mashiho appeared to be missing from a recent group photo uploaded on Weverse.
Observations of apparent photoshopping, including a blurry space and an extra sneaker in the image, led fans to believe that the two members were edited out. The photo was taken during TREASURE’s 2021 Summer Camp, where all 12 members were initially present.
YG Entertainment had announced Yedam’s temporary hiatus to focus on music studies and Mashiho’s extended break for health reasons.
Fans criticized the entertainment company for the alteration and demanded an explanation, though YG Entertainment had not responded at the time of the report.
Additionally, it was announced that TREASURE would make a comeback with 10 members, with preparations underway for a summer album release and upcoming concert projects to commemorate their second anniversary.
