Seolhyun responded directly to an online community post.

On May 11th, Seolhyun screen captured a post from the online community Nate Pann on her Instagram story. The post was titled 'What happened to Seolhyun?' and contained photos of Seolhyun that netizens said were "Unrecognizable." The photos were actually still cuts of Seolhyun, who is playing the character of Do Ah Hee in the tvN drama 'The Murderer's Shopping List,' which is currently airing.

Seolhyun didn't get discouraged and responded to the post by saying, "If you're wondering how this happened...! Watch 'The Murderer's Shopping List' tonight at 10:30!" Rather than being discouraged, she sensibly converted the post into an opportunity to promote her drama.

Meanwhile, netizens previously gathered in this online community to discuss how Seolhyun's image had changed. Most of the netizens praised Seolhyun's image change for the drama as she did not shy away from shedding her glamourous idol image but rather completely took on the role of the character from the drama.

Thereafter, Seolhyun garnered much more attention and love for her sensible response to that online community post. Netizens commented, "I like Seolhyun," "This drama is really hilarious," "I like this drama," "Seolhyun is pretty and she acts really well in 'The Murderer's Shopping List," "She acts really well here," "I love how she responded," and "She's adorable."

Meanwhile, 'The Murderer's Shopping List,' starring Lee Kwang Soo and Seolhyun, is a comical investigation drama that unfolds as a mart owner, cashier, and police officer analyzes the list of shopping items to deduce and solve a mysterious murder case in an ordinary neighborhood.
