“I learned a lot” Netizens criticize Red Velvet’s Irene after she revealed what she learned during hiatus

Quote from dancingbella23

another evidence that kpop is so much harsher on female idols than male idol.

Look at the other male idol that is now becoming active since his bullying scandal. We don't see things like this.

Honestly, in general they are, but I don't think that can apply to the Irene situation. Straight away after her behaviour was revealed, people came to her defence and even tried to falsify evidence that the stylist was lying. Anyone who criticises her gets jumped on. Just shows visuals and popularity also play a part in how someone is treated.

One of the reason because in the original stylist post, she indicate that this was gapjil (thoroughly stepped on and done over by one person)

However, in Irene apologies post she didn't mention that at all and brushed off as a immature attitude as well as careless words and actions

That's why some of the K-netz still won't forgive her

Wtf... No wonder mental health in SK is shitty, people literally expect you to be miserable and criticize you if you aren't

Quote from bartkun

At least thanks to that we know that members still live together in dorm

So Seulgi's the only one living elsewhere now?

So Seulgi's the only one living elsewhere now?

Seulgi and Yeri have their own place, Wendy has been living with her parents since the accident. Irene and Joy haven't said anything about having their own place. Seulgi had already talked about the dorm situation and how everyone still has their own room there and they'll stay there when group promo starts up again.

How knetz expected Irene after hiatus:

Lmao their acting like SM should have locked her in a dungeon while she was on hiatus.

Quote from SandyBee3

Eh… should she die while reflecting? Of course she has to eat and take care of herself…. lol

i meannnnn knetz are something elsee.

Queen Irene stays thriving

Hm well I guess her wording is like that because of SM, I'm sure she did take a good look at herself and consider her actions behind the scenes (I hope). I hope she'll really learn to stop looking down on others. Just because you're pretty and a kpop idol doesn't mean you can treat others badly.

Not every idol is going to say how their hiatus went. And she doesn't want people to be worried. She needs to eat, sleep, take care of herself, and do the basic necessities that people need. She shouldn't need to say "I took the time to reflect on my actions" we should already know she did that.

Sometimes I feel like knetz would love for k-idols to go full J-Pop and shave their heads as an act of contrition.

Well it isnt up to knetz to forgive or not at the begin with. So they can MOVE ON like the actual victim did months ago

Since when K-netz easily move on especially this is involving female idol?

Fortunately the reactions are much better than before since Irene posted her apologies 2 times

So I think she should be fine eventhough the hate still follow her

I think they waited for Irene to bring this up and talk. Irene is an introvert, she would never bring up such a topic again, even if she regrets it, so she talked about superficial topics. It's normal for her to hide her feelings anyway, she doesn't have to, I think it's wrong for netizens to meddle in idol business. I understand those who don't want to give Irene a second chance, but it's very malicious for netizens to look for ulterior motives in every word that comes out of Irene and other idols' mouths.
