On November 2, Ayumi shared two photos on her Instagram with the caption, "Long-lasting bonds🤍 Always my comforting people🤍."
In the photos, Ayumi is seen with Hwang Jung-eum and Jeon Hye-bin enjoying a bus ride in broad daylight, capturing memories together. Notably, despite being active celebrities, the trio did not cover their faces with masks or hats, confidently using public transportation and drawing attention.
Ayumi and Hwang Jung-eum debuted in March 2002 as part of the girl group Sugar and have maintained a strong friendship ever since. Jeon Hye-bin debuted in May of the same year with the group LUV, alongside actress Oh Yeon-seo.
