According to Panchoa, a post on Instiz titled "CUBE Who Bent Miyeon's Finger With Their Editing" began trending after fans called out suspicious photo manipulation in one of her recent selfies. The alleged edit made parts of the image appear warped, which reignited concerns over Cube's ongoing handling of artist visuals.

One fan commented, "Huh? Why would you do that to pretty kids?" Another netizen pointed out the photo alteration and said, "If you didn't tell me, I wouldn't be able to tell this was Miyeon."

It drew more attention because it came just after the group's member Shuhua had addressed similar issues. According to Instiz, "ast time, Shuhua made a post on Bubble telling Cube to stop editing her photos." As per the fans, the company did not pay any heed to her previous remarks.

As for the possible reason behind the edit, one user commented, "I feel like because Shuhua talked about it, it created an issue, so this time, they wanted to purposefully make it obvious."

It drew criticism from fans who feel that Cube's strategy distracts from the artists' natural beauty. Another comment said, "They can get mocked because of those photos. It feels like they're using those Chinese apps to edit too."

Others felt incredulous and hilarious about the editing mistake: "ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ The editing is so baffling, it's funny," one user commented, while another said, "No but ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Are they for real? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ If they tried to be funny, they achieved it."

Supporters of Miyeon also added that her unedited photos look much better, as one fan wrote: "The selcas that I know Miyeon took are way prettier."

Although Cube Entertainment has yet to issue any statement about the issue, discussions still continue across online forums, with a message from fans calling on the agency to desist from adjusting the members' natural appearances in the future.
