Singer and actress VIVIZ has sparked discussion by posting a message containing dialect expressions on her social media.
On the 9th, VIVIZ shared a photo along with a brief post saying, "Why is this so hard?" It is known that she spent her school years in Ulsan and Changwon, among other areas in the Gyeongsang region.
The released photo shows VIVIZ without makeup, gazing blankly at something.
VIVIZ's use of dialect expressions has drawn attention amid ongoing controversy surrounding member Won-i of the group Lissunne's recent remark "scary."
Won-i, originally from Geoje in Gyeongsangnam-do, sparked controversy after saying "scary" in a video posted on her YouTube channel 'Hello, I'm Won-i. Please take care of me' on the 28th of last month.
Regarding Won-i's remark, some netizens pointed out that the expression is associated with the far-right community Ilbe (Ilgan Best Storage), while others countered that it was simply a Gyeongsang dialect, leading to heated debate.
Meanwhile, VIVIZ is currently appearing on EBS' 'The Last Human'.
