A small change triggered the comments.
IVE‘s Liz is facing criticism over her recent update.

For more than a year, Liz’s visual changes have been a topic of discussion. Initially, the idol’s weight loss drew attention, as her visuals changed and netizens approved.
More recently, Liz has been at the center of plastic surgery accusations and criticism over her looks.

Now, these visual changes have been aligned with copying her group mate, Jang Wonyoung.
Since debut, Wonyoung has been known for her visuals and often praised for her appearance, including her beauty marks, located near her eye and on her cheek.

Liz does not have similar marks, but in a recent update, it appears that an under eye mole was drawn on her face.

Because of the mole’s placement, in the same spot as Wonyoung, and Liz’s resemblance to Wonyoung with her make-up and styling, many have accused her of “copying” the older idol. Some even took it a step further, implying that Liz was a danger to Wonyoung.
When you are too iconic to a point you get your group mates copying you 🤐🤐 Liz really needs to find her own identity the obsession is crazy to a point she had to even make up a mole that she doesn’t have https://t.co/baXLsIsLQD pic.twitter.com/nZK2Q7QFk7

Liz’s fixation on copying Wonyoung is beyond disturbing. It’s a major red flag for WY’s safety. @STARSHIPent Liz needs professional help and a hiatus for psychiatric treatment. Keep them apart until she is stable. This isn’t normal.🚨 https://t.co/laYR2GvX73
