SinB goes viral in Episode 0

SinB, a girl group member of GFriend and Viviz, is often known for a resting face that looks like she is always frowning that fans find hilarious. So, even when she is not irked by any situation, if she doesn’t show any expressions on her face, it looks like she is mad which worried some fans. Many went as far as to coach her by asking her not to frown on ‘Queendom 2’ so that Mnet cannot use her for "evil editing" and to create drama and fan wars.

But it looks like that was exactly the reason she went viral, which K-pop Twitter is finding hilarious. At one point in episode 0 of 'Queendom 2', WJSN said that they were seniors to almost every group present to which SinB jokingly told WJSN's Yeoreum that Viviz was their senior. However, the editors added dramatic sound effects and zoom-ins to make it look like SinB had said something shocking. But many think that it was scripted since SinB made a hand gesture when she passed WJSN as if to signal the start of the drama. We even had Yeoreum trying hard not to smile.

SinB also gave a hilarious confessional as she pretended to be surprised when Brave Girls chose Viviz as their rivals in the show. We also had Viviz’s fans asking Kep1er’s fans not to take SinB too seriously as in one moment, she jokingly asked how old Kep1er's Yeseo was and if it was time for her to go home. She was also honest as she said, “Mnet is cruel.”

Another fan thought they found the moment when SinB and Yeoreum started the drama, "Is this how sinb greets yeoreum or she's just sending signal to yeoreum to start the drama." One found the interaction between SinB and Yeoreum hilarious, “Funniest part abt this is that everyone knows viviz and wjsn girls are besties so this is really just sinb wanting to play up the drama 😭😭😭😭 sinb actress arc next.”

One fan commented, “SinB: *breathes* Mnet: *puts on a tense sound effect* *zoom in zoom out*.” Another said, “I'm not sure if its evil edit but she looks so damn attractive here.” A Loona fan posted, “Jinsouls reaction when wjsn joked that viviz aren’t seniors since they’re close and sinb told yeoreum to tell wjsn that they are.”
