Later, Minnie posted another story with a more positive tone, “Did you enjoy the stage? Thank you to the NEVERLANDs who came to see us today. I love you, please go home safely.”

Netizens who saw the Instagram story argued over Minnie’s words. Some netizens commented, “”It made sense that they didn’t win the grand prize when they were invited for ‘Tomboy’ and ‘Nxde,'” and “Isn’t that a jab [at the winners]?”

On the other hand,  they believed Minnie was only expressing her joy after receiving three awards, or simply poor timing. The supporters asked that netizens not to take it too seriously.
