A lot of times when these sort of scandals break out, the idols just stay silent and don't say anything and move on with their lives like nothing happen. Like they literally act like they don't exist and expect fans to move on. Yeah I will name some, LE SSERAFIM, (G)I-DLE, etc. It's not their fault they are probably told to not say anything.
Or sometimes you have members that are benched because of certain scandals and companies make line no sound hoping that people forget about the scandal, and members saying skeptical stuff to hint that the member is still around. And this is worse because there will be 2 sides of the fandoms delulu-ing each other. We all know which group this is, yes it's the Lucas scandal, the members say stuff that make it so ambiguous.
I feel like this is one of the rare times where members openly speak about it and make their stance extremely clear, that the group is going to move on as 5 and ask fans to just support the 5 of them now.
