Things have become much more complicated now. The producer of UQ is saying that they will redo the episodes and conduct an in-depth investigation, covering parts that were not shown before. Obviously they will focus on the Ceo's side too, potentially putting the girls in a more difficult position. The recent Dispatch article with evidence adds to the concern. It would be helpful if the girls could provide similar evidence to support their claims, especially regarding the hospitalizations of some members like they claims due to various reasons like panic attacks. At this stage, mere words will not be sufficient to regain public support. If the information in the Dispatch article is accurate, the CEO could counter with a defamation lawsuit, given that he possesses evidence. The girls side need something substantial to convince everyone. What's unsettling is that this situation could take years to resolve and could lead to more legal complications for them.
I found a user saying this-"In addition, this incident occurred between June — July 2021. At the time, the members were still trainees. FIFTY FIFTY members agreed to an exclusive contract on March 5, 2022. If this incident had caused physical and mental shock, they shouldn’t have signed the contract."
The parents should take the blame too because how in earth they allowed their kids signing the contract if this happen to them?
