Garam case has reminded me why I left Kpop for almost two years

I still can’t believe they acted high and mighty about bullying while bullying a 16 years old girl online. smh.

well one has to remember this isn't a court of law where the rules and evidence matter...

this is the court of public opinion...and in the court of public opinion the masses rule...it doesn't matter ultimately who's right and who's wrong because we as the public will never know hell even the parties themselves might not know due to fuzzy memories or different accounts of the actual events...

now I haven't been a kpop fan for every long but to my knowledge there has been not one case of bullying that has ever made it to court...

I am also traumatized because I am a bg stanner and it was my first time supporting a gg. But what happened to Garam made me unable to full heartedly support any gg.

I am trying to forget about it by moving on but this still haunts me and makes me go back again and again in search of info about what's happening to her now.

I don't want to hate other members because they are innocent but twtr commenters seriously sucks and I don't want to argue so I better move on and I will be back if we ever get info about her

I hope justice get served

I was with you till you said Koreans don't understand what bullying is. Are YOU Korean or lived in Korea for a long time? They know what it is in their own country better than everyone. If you' had been following bullying scandals, you would know that bullying is completely different there, IT'S BRUTAL, Age hierarchy just worsens it. Teachers don't do shit, students assault, all those molka issues and these kids don't get any kind of punishment.

That viral video of minors casually slapping the victim, minors sexually abusing Mongolian girl, using cigarettes to burn their skin. All those scenes in dramas don't exaggerate, it's all real.

No one knows what happened between them. If Garam was completely innocent, ALL the students and teachers would come to defend her.

I'm still hung up over Soojin... I get it

There were students who tried to defend Garam but they got downvoted to hell by Pann knetz. And why would teachers care? From all the stories I hear teachers in Korea are trash and only care about their jobs and school's rep. They're part of the problem why bullying is so bad in Korea in the first place.

(I'm not saying Garam is 100% innocent but that logic doesn't work)

Unfortunately that is how kpop industry work, not even lesserfiend fans would want Garam to be in the group tarnishing the group's reputation. The seemingly best possible action for HYBE to do is cut tie with Garam ASAP but they were tiny bit late and lie in the process...

Tell me. This days have you ever considered another two years?
