About SooShu

SooShu is the fan pairing of former (G)I-DLE member Soojin (Seo Soojin) and current member Shuhua (Yeh Shuhua). Both debuted with (G)I-DLE under Cube Entertainment on May 2, 2018. Soojin was the group's main dancer and Shuhua the group's visual, and during their time together the two formed a bond that fans found particularly touching. A key part of the SooShu story is Shuhua's adjustment to life in Korea as a Taiwanese trainee and idol. Fans have noted that Soojin was the first Korean friend Shuhua made and remembered, and that Soojin's warmth and attentiveness toward Shuhua became a recurring theme in group content. Shuhua's habit of seeking out Soojin for hugs during encore stages became one of the ship's most beloved recurring moments, compiled widely by fans. Soojin departed from (G)I-DLE in August 2021.
