Sakura is the new target of hate with knetizens and kpop stans

The whole of Iz*one is hated because of the rigging, fans are sending those trucks to the company to not disband Iz*one but it would be unfair to the other groups like i.o.i and wanna one, and also X1 if they stayed a group. I feel bad for Sakura.

I mean they have no reason to hate her. For what, it wasn't their fault it was rigged. They knew nothing of it, some of those netizens to stfu and suck each others dick from the back . Like honestly they find stupid ass reason to hate somebody.

Sakura was obviously *not* one of the rigged members. It's nationalists that are irritated. Nationalists like things 100% homebrewed.

It has to do with the tense relationship between Japan and Korea too

Sakura has always been hated by knetz for being a popular female japanese idol and kpops fans were always going to be pathetic antis of bhngg

Yea that is true some really bad things going on between them, but what the fuck does that have to with Sakura. She didnt say or do nothing wrong to Korea. I mean even if she is Japanese most of the people that hate her now probably voted for her in PD48.

Ughh this is my exact thoughts

Finally ive found some reasonable and sane kpop fans lmao.

Their acting like they have a say when they don’t lmao And Sakura wasn’t rigged, those korean members however were.

It's just xenophobia no other way around it. She obviously wasn't a rigged member I mean

I have very mixed feelings about it all.

I still can't forgive Mnet, the makers of the show and all the girls' companies involved who basically pushed Kaeun out of the idol industry woth their rigging and sabotaged Chowon, 1 of the most promising and unique upcoming idols and potential it girl, and set back her career with 3 years and more.

She could've been a star already, she's just that special, and the shelf life of girl idols isn't that long that wasting 3-4 years and more isn't damaging to it.

As for Sakura, she isn't the most talented singer or dancer even within the group IZ*One, but she was very charming and adorable.

I'm curious to see how this will develop.

There are always people who will hate but sakura is very popular (also in context with the japan and korea tensions)

I mean if she didn’t have some shady issues back in Japan she could’ve saved her ass with some more knetz but:

1. P48 was rigged (not that she was but that’s enough)

2. She’s japanese

3. Shady things from the past

So the hate was kinda expected.

This is nothing new, Mrs. Miyawaki has been slandered in korean forums since Produce48 was still airing didn't stop her fancams from trending above various other contestants in Naver still.

Nothing that hasn't already been said.
