Earlier this week, fans were thrilled to learn that each member of ATEEZ had opened a personal Instagram account.
The members celebrated the opening in their own way, posting a nostalgic photo before creating their own content. Wooyoung, who went with the simple username @wooyounggg__, has made only one additional post so far and managed to drive fans crazy.
That is not to say he is not active, as he has shared multiple stories on his page, giving fans a look at his day-to-day activities.
Now, the idol has seemingly accidentally shown that he is active in another way — and possibly lurking on the app!
ATEEZ each currently follow only eight accounts, comprising the other group members and the official ATEEZ account.
However, on June 26, fans noticed that Wooyoung’s following had changed, leading them to wonder who he followed. Many possibilities were raised, including Wooyoung’s idol friends Stray Kids‘ Changbin or TXT‘s Yeonjun…
…but as it turned out, it was not another idol at all!
A fan account shared that the account that had been followed was fan account, whose bias appeared to be Jongho! While there are many explanations, one possible theory fans have is that Wooyoung was creeping on the app and accidentally made the follow.

Hilariously enough, the fan he followed reacted to it by sharing a story stating they couldn’t believe Wooyoung exposed their relationship.

Wooyoung has since unfollowed the fan, but many are laughing at the idol’s bad lurking skills while wondering why he could have been “creeping” in the first place.
he’s the worst lurker it’s funny as hell… the point of lurking is no one is supposed to find out https://t.co/IwHiV9LQx2
