1. The two added members (Rachel and Chaekyung) are pitiful
2. Even if there wasn't the bullying case, it seems their contract was coming to an end and they would've disbanded during the contract renewal season either way

9. Chaekyung-ah...
10. *many comments simply stating "Hyunjoo fighting"*
11. Hyunjoo fighting! Her younger brother was still a high schooler when he came out with his side and he suffered so much to protect his older sister. I hope that household has nothing but happiness in their future...
12. I'm only sad for Chaekyung and Rachel. Hoping for all the best for Hyunjoo in the future.
13. Supporting Hyunjoo
14. Fans, stop harassing Hyunjoo
15. There were many reasons to end the group. Too bad that they had some good songs.
16. Chaekyung, Hyunjoo, Rachel
17. How are some of you still empathizing with perpetrators?
18. Save Chaekyung and Rachel, disband the rest
19. The group wasn't doing good to begin with, so I never thought they'd be renewing their contract.
20. Hyunjoo, Chaekyung and Rachel, I hope you do well in the future!
21. Rachel, I will always support you!
22. I hope Hyunjoo is doing well
23. Stay strong Hyunjoo, wishing for the best to you
24. Good luck Rachel!
25. The fans are still going around leaving malicious comments about Hyunjoo, but your group is disbanded now
26. The fans are insane
27. Why are you harassing people?
28. Best wishes to Hyunjoo, Chaekyung and Rachel
29. Lol their fans are still alive. Anyway, Hyunjoo, Chaekyung, Rachel let's do well!
30. I hope Rachel continues to be an idol, she's a treasure.
31. Cheering for Hyunjoo's future!
32. Good
33. Hyunjoo, fighting! On a side not, fans, go outside and touch some grass (not really what the person said but the meaning is the same, they told them to go live their lives instead of leaving hate)
34. Finally!! Apologize to Hyunjoo
35. Chaekyung, Rachel, fighting
36. Chaekyung solo, please
37. Rachel fighting!
38. Let's support Hyunjoo
39. They should've disbanded them sooner if all they were going to do was drag out the issue like this only to disband them after all..
40. Protect Hyunjoo
41. *People talking about not believing the police investigation but a Youtuber who is an APRIL fan who made a malicious video about Hyunjoo, while other people are laughing at them for saying that*
42. Is there anyone who will continue to support them after seeing what their fans are doing?
43. Good luck to Chaekyung, Rachel and Hyunjoo
44. I still feel upset when I think of that video of them laughing at Hyunjoo
45. I hope Chaekyung's future career does well
46. Hope the future is bright for Hyunjoo, Chaekyung and Rachel!
47. If you go to Hyunjoo's Instagram right now, it's filled with malicious comments. I hope people screenshot them and her company sues some idiots.
48. Hyunjoo is so pretty
49. Now let's sue the malicious commenters under all of Hyunjoo's social media
50. Can the fans disband too

like I said just after news that RBW will acquire DSP this happened...

it's like RBW made decision which actually is a smart one in this case

They probably cut their loses. I'm just hoping they don't touch KARD.

Quote from bartkun

that would bring them bad press because some members are in military yes?

J.Seph. BM is American so I don't know if he'll ever enlist, he'd have to give up his citizenship in order to do that?

Quote

According to the new law, those who have dual citizenship, have to either serve in the military or drop their Korean nationality and be considered a foreigner. Since Stray Kids’ Bang Chan and Felix decided to opt for a single nationality, i.e., Australian, they will be exempt from this law. However, Seventeen’s Vernon, who is listed as an American as well as a Korean will have to enlist. Had he dropped his Korean nationality before he turned 18 (the minimum enlistment age), he would have been excused from the mandatory service. On the other hand, ENHYPEN’s Jake, who is Korean-Australian still has a chance to decide as he has just turned 18.

This new law is kind of weird because it affects people retroactively. Shouldn't they still be able to choose/decide on their citizenship. Imagine being 28 and finding out you have to go to the military.

Quote from bartkun

damn that's strange but for example

couldn't they move for a month to Australia or US and do their 'scratch' of Korean nationality in some office there?

I don't think that's how it works. Nationality and citizenship aren't the same, no?

Quote from bartkun

well I've just read for example if you would have English and Polish nationality and want to leave your Polish side in the past

then you need to go to Polish embassy in London with multiple doccuments, and pay 350 Euro

the problem is that President makes a decision but he doesn't have a timeline for it

so you might wait for it 89238923 years :D

I actually have no idea! The thing I quoted from that article is a bit confusing but it seems they were expected to make a decision by the age of 18.

Quote from bartkun

well Korea has some weird set of laws so within their country borders it might be true,

I was watching Law School kdrama recently and they've even mentioned one article/law which only Korea is using, no one else in the world is using it but they are :D

The laws I was confused at are the ones that follow you to other countries - like no gambling in SK? No gambling anywhere for SK citizens. And they'll be held liable if they're caught gambling in another country where it isn't illegal.
