Soyeon, a former member of T-ara, provided an update on her life in Dubai, where she has been residing for the last year. She shared a photo on Instagram of local gardeners at her new home, expressing thanks for their work. Soyeon offered them snacks and drinks, unaware that it was Ramadan, a month of fasting for Muslims in the Middle East. She realized her error, reflecting on giving food and drinks during a time of fasting.
