The other day, Hwang Jung Eum showed that she was still close to Sugar member, Ayumi, by posting pictures of their recent meet-up!

Through her Instagram, she posted pics of them together and wrote, "Ayum, Jung Eum." In the picture, they look close and affectionate. In one shot, it looks like Hwang Jung Eum is even going in for a smooch while Ayumi leans in to accept! How cute.

Their group debuted back in 2002 and disbanded in 2006, but it's good to see they're still close.

Wow, I never knew Hwang Jung Eum was in a girl group!! They looked so young then, and now they both look successful and happy. I'm glad the friendship outlasted the game 😊

Yup. Another fun fact: Ayumi is also Korean, not ethnically Japanese. Only Japanese by birth.

Yeah, I know about that label. But a lot of people don't really know that Ayumi is Korean, because she looks super Japanese visually. I'm Korean and I didn't know she was Korean until she said it on a variety show a while back.

The End
