IVE Yujin's Shanghai vlog draws praise and questions over its edit

IVE's (아이브) latest [IVE LOG] entry, a vlog from a two-night, three-day trip to Shanghai that also features a dog, drew a wave of comments centered on member Yujin. The most-liked reactions praised her bare-faced look, with one viewer writing that "seeing her bare face, it's exactly her Produce-days face — a true natural beauty" (민낯 얼굴 보니까 프듀 얼굴 ㄹㅇ그대로네 진짜 자연미인 그자체). Several commenters said she looked lovely even while eating, one noting "our Yujini even looks pretty eating." Others simply left affection, calling her "so lovable" and a "pretty queen."

A large share of the reactions focused on the vlog's food-heavy content. One commenter praised that "much of the vlog is a food tour," in keeping with the members' well-fed reputation, while another described the clip as "my comfort watch." The dog in the vlog also drew attention, with viewers calling it "the world's cutest dog" and joking that being "this cute and pretty should be a crime." Several said they were glad to see Yujin "eating well," framing the whole thing as an easy, feel-good watch.

The other main thread in the comments concerned the clip being taken down and re-uploaded in a shorter version. One highly liked comment said the writer was "so glad I got to watch the original version before it was taken down," recalling the banter between Yujin and her friends that "made the vlog so funny." Others were more critical of the handling: one asked why the video had been deleted a day earlier, another noted the original ran about 18 minutes and remarked sarcastically that Starship "does its job so well," and a Portuguese-language commenter lamented that the parts where she interacted with friends appeared to have been cut. Some urged the team to "at least post a notice before taking it down."
