But after that, Seulgi refused when a fan asked her to dance to NewJeans' "Hype Boy".
Through the video clip uploaded on Twitter, it can be seen that Seulgi only danced a little of the choreography for the song and refused to fully cover the song.
Then Seulgi commented, "I think you might be able to see it later. You know why right? I decided not to make anything controversial happen."

This was done by Seulgi, because her agency, SM Entertainment, was experiencing quite a tense relationship with HYBE.
The company that is above NewJenas, HYBE is known to be currently the majority shareholder of SM Entertainment and will buy more.
Seeing that Seulgi was very careful not to cause controversy, Korean netizens immediately gave various comments.
