Six out of seven Kep1er members have finally launched their official solo accounts on Instagram. However, Kep1ians noted that member Youngeun has not yet joined the launch, sparking reactions on social media.
On October 2, fans were surprised by Kep1er members on Instagram, as each of them launched their own solo IG account.
The only ones who generated interest with their launch were Yujin, Xiaoting, Chaehyun, Dayeon, Hikaru and Huening Bahiyyih, who all showed up with a nice group photo. The image was later followed by some of their solo images.

As much as their surprising move was aimed at instilling excitement in the fandom, most were saddened by Youngeun’s absence.
On X (formerly Twitter), netizens uploaded a screenshot of Youngeun’s Bubble conversation, showing the idol opening up about her true feelings when opening an Instagram account.
According to Youngeun’s messages, the idol acknowledged the surprising reaction to her not opening Instagram.
“Why didn’t I create an Instagram account? Everyone was surprised. Well, I actually wasn’t sure. Rather than being sure I want to open it now, I want to build things that are inside me.”

Fans then expressed comforting words to the Kep1er member and used the hashtag “We Love You Youngeun.”
