Cho Min-ah and Seo Inyoung, both former members of the group Jewelry, have tearfully reconciled after clearing up long-standing misunderstandings and sharing their true feelings.

A video titled "The Reason Seo Inyoung Didn't Invite Only Cho Min-ah to Her Wedding" was uploaded to the YouTube channel 'Seo Inyoung's Reformation' on July 1. In the video, the two discussed everything from the past 'Yanggaeng (red bean jelly) controversy' to the misunderstandings surrounding the wedding.

When Seo Inyoung asked Cho Min-ah if she had any 'anti-fans,' Cho coolly admitted, "Because of the Yanggaeng." In the past, after obtaining a baking certification, Cho operated a cafe called 'Space Goddess Bakery' but faced criticism for setting prices too high. When she became embroiled in a controversy over the price of her Yanggaeng, which was significantly more expensive than market rates, Cho added fuel to the fire by stating, "There is nothing wrong with it."

Seo Inyoung joked, "Our lives are divided into my divorce and your Yanggaeng controversy," to which Cho replied, "I'm sorry. I didn't know how the world worked. It was my first time in society. I thought it was enough to make things with good ingredients and sincerity." When Seo retorted, "That's too long. Just say, 'I was wrong to sell the Yanggaeng,'" Cho laughed and apologized, saying, "The bread was expensive. I'm sorry," bringing laughter to the set.

The two then opened up for the first time about their inner thoughts from the time they grew distant due to the wedding. Seo Inyoung married in 2023 but went through a divorce about a year later. While all other Jewelry members attended the wedding, Cho Min-ah's absence had raised questions.

Explaining the reason, Seo Inyoung recalled, "People think I married someone who wasn't right for me, but back then, Min-ah tried to stop me first. She said, 'Isn't it too rushed, Inyoung?' But at the time, I was mentally struggling so much. My mother had passed away, and I was in a state of chaos. I just wanted to hold onto something and live happily, but since Min-ah kept saying she felt hurt, I ended up saying, 'Why are you always thinking about being hurt?' I didn't even have the capacity to explain my situation."

Cho Min-ah explained her reason for not attending the wedding, noting that she was more curious about the reason than feeling 'hurt.' She shared her honest feelings, saying, "I got calls from reporters and tons of DMs. They asked, 'Why were you the only one who didn't go to the wedding?' I really didn't even know where it was held, so I couldn't go. What I wanted to hear wasn't an apology, but the reason. 'Why didn't she tell me?' I was so curious about that. She was a friend I loved so much."

After hearing Seo Inyoung's explanation, Cho Min-ah reflected on her own heart, saying, "After Inyoung told me the reason, I realized, 'I was immature.' Inyoung just wanted to receive congratulations, but I approached it too realistically. I think I was very narrow-minded." Seo Inyoung also wiped away tears, saying, "Thinking about it now, Min-ah wasn't a friend who asked for much. I should have just understood her a little bit, why did I do that? I'm sorry."

Seo Inyoung, who has been running the YouTube channel 'Seo Inyoung's Reformation,' is experiencing a second heyday with her honest talk and human charm. Recently, she received a great response from fans by reuniting with Jewelry members to perform their hit songs.
