Irene admitted her wrong doing qnd went on a hiatus. Btw, both cases are totally different. Irene had more of a fight/outburst. Is not she was picking on the staff member everyday. Sis just exploded and went on a rant for 20 mins. I think Koreans saw that more of an attitude problem rather than bullying.

BTS paved the way!

Sugden Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 whats is going ON, not them doing aespa numbers already

taemin Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 7 minutes ago, Eternium said: It reminds me of how everyone claimed NMIXX’s sales were fake JYP had girls buying blind packages even before the group was officially announced. New Jeans is from a top four label, they promoted three music videos prior to their pre-order date (giving fans time to pool money/get interested), they’ve gotten a ton of attention domestically, in China and in the U.S. and their CEO has been promoting them for a long time now. Their success is not inorganic. All of this. We know the members and we heard the music - which is something that usually doesn’t happen prior to an album’s release. Why wouldn’t people want to buy their albums even if “they just debuted some days ago”?

But China is the most unforgiving market and when you get canceled there, everything gets destroyed. Plus, I’m a good person and I deserve a 9-member Girls’ Generation. They have higher first day pre-orders because pre-orders were announced in advance and there were three music videos promoting it. It’s all just super strong pre-marketing. That’s what good rollouts look like. This thread also tried to criticize the rollout for Aespa’s “Girls” and they had one of the strongest rollouts of the year. I don’t care about their actual sales, just the hypocrisy in seeing the same members saying Aespa sales are suspicious now celebrating a new group coming out of nowhere and selling more than other top 4th gen groups. it’s about time for people to just admit they’re pressed Aespa is so successful and stop pretending it’s anything other than that.

the good guy_duh Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 Bullying scandals are so cringe tbh. Especially when it happened in school lol

I hope they NEVER do that again.

paperfectdelusion Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 Still can't believe a quick umpah umpah performance caused the downfall of Irene but anyways good for Irene for finally getting some solo activity as she seemed sincere and learned from her mistake

Even Step Back was Winter’s era My comment was based on what I heard the most MYs say on social media, so, I'm not changing it. Plus, owning an era is not just limited on popularity, cmon if that's the case every cb is Karina's/Winter's era. Also, I agree, Step Back was Winter's era since most fans also think the same

Sugden Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 To think people were mad at how sm handled the irene case at the time, but they did awesome she could've ended like garam or soojin. They probably even gonna be able to reverse the lucas situation
rzal Posted July 25, 2022 Posted July 25, 2022 20 minutes ago, Sugden said: Garam case is so much worse though, irene screamed at someone while being stressed which could happen to anyone, besides all the staff that have worked with her came to her defense. a fight between 12 year olds being worse than a grown woman bullying her staff there were also many people who worked with irene and liked the stylist's post
