"In 2016, she also joined the now-defunct company STAR MUSIC. They planned to debut a girl group named PRINCESS; however, due to controversy over one of the other members (Seungchae), their debut failed, and many trainees left."

Imagine having your whole debut cancelled because the maknae who was 12 when the controversy was discovered had a messy online presence when she was even younger than that. Wow.

Quote from Lulu_Key

Me when I dug out the one translated post about it

Quote from quarkie

Looks like too young combined with only being in the the company for a month before it was announced she'd debut plus being an edgy teen on the internet.

I just can't believe we're cancelling 12 year olds for being messy

Quote from LavenderBobaTea

12 year old me would have been publicly executed by k-netz

I feel like a lot of people would've been

Quote from Cashmere-Rose

I really don't see how this is a problem.... like who did not fight online in this day and age....

Unless they were was sending death threats and slutshaming and etc.., that I can get.

From what I've seen she was just a stupid kid, but who knows.

Quote from Help1

I don't understand how info spreads so quickly, that her classmates/facebook friends would even know about this unknown group.

She probably bragged to her friends

Quote from Help1

I thought of that, but then those friends spread negative things about her? Or then her friends told other people, and eventually some people who don't like her found out, then talked about her online

They're kids so they're not smart and they're jealous and not good friends. They could have also just told others and then somebody who hated her heard about it and went back to screenshot her silly posts etc.

and there's multiple steps in the "making it" part

first one has pass an audition

then one has train like 24/7/365 and survive and debut

then one has to succeed upon debut

then one has to maintain that level of success

you forgot *one has to not get cancelled for facebook posts they made at 10*

Quote from selfmate

back in my day we didn't even have facebook

I had in Elementary school (7 grade) and I am close to 30 myself

Quote from selfmate

cute but you do remember I'm close to 40 and I've got like 10 years on you mate

in kpop terms we're all senior citizens but in real life terms we're both young and living the best years
