Thank you, thank you!

Damn, two racism scandals in a week.

It just shows the power of having a fandom because KIOF is being cancelled way more viciously.

Then again, a whole live stream is WILD.

Only ones I listen to from this list are Meow and Eleven.

I originally chose Eleven, but changed it to Meow since Meovv is being done dirty on this poll.

Edit: NVM, can't change it. Lesigh.

How much is the penalty fee again?

It just makes me so sad to see this thing drag out and seeing these young girls going through this. If I remember correctly, it was some crazy amount. If not, I'd say just pay the fee forreal and be done with HYBE and ADOR.

Pretty Yoona!

Well, I would not have guessed, but I also don't follow RV like I used to.

Good luck to her. 3rd gen GGs so far has only seen 1 successful actress to somewhat match Yoona, Suzy, and Hyeri in star power, and that's Sejeong.

Maybe Yeri can be the next one.

He really is suing the family. Goodness.

[instiz] FROM 12 BILLION WON → 11 BILLION WON... KIM SOOHYUN'S LAWSUIT AGAINST 'KIM SAERON'S BEREAVED FAMILY', BEGINS IN COURT

April 02, 2025

Actor Kim Soo-hyun has officially begun a legal battle against the family of the late Kim Sae-ron. He mentioned 12 billion won at a press conference, but the actual lawsuit amount is known to be 11 billion won.

The court in charge of the damages lawsuit filed by Kim Soo-hyun against the family of the late Kim Sae-ron and the YouTube channel "Garosero Research Institute" was assigned on the 1st.

According to the legal community on the 2nd, the Seoul Central District Court assigned the damages claim lawsuit filed by Kim Soo-hyun to Director General Jeong Ha-jeong of the Civil Settlement Division 14. Kim Soo-hyun's side stated at a press conference held on the 31st of last month that they filed a lawsuit worth over 12 billion won, but the amount submitted to the court was 11 billion won.

At the press conference, Kim Soo-hyun rebutted the allegations raised, stating, "I did not have a relationship with the deceased when they were a minor. Additionally, it is not true that the deceased made a tragic choice due to my behavior or because my agency pressured them about their debt."

He then pointed to a KakaoTalk message allegedly written by the late Kim Sae-ron, saying, "There are too many incorrect facts in this message to assert that the deceased wrote it. The year 2016 was also a photo from 2019. Furthermore, the age difference between us cannot be mistaken. Also, the name of the agency I was with for 4 years and the contract period cannot be completely wrong. The deceased only worked as a contracted actor with our company and did not participate in rookie casting or visual directing." He raised suspicions of evidence manipulation against the family and Gaseyeon.

Kim Soo-hyun's legal representative stated, "Our law firm has just filed a complaint with the Gangnam Police Station against the family members and the unidentified person who claims to be an aunt, as well as the operator of Gaseyeon, for defamation due to the dissemination of false information using the information and communications network, attaching the emotional reports mentioned by Kim Soo-hyun as evidence. Additionally, we submitted a lawsuit seeking damages of 12 billion won for the financial losses and emotional distress incurred by Kim Soo-hyun and the agency to the Seoul Central District Court today."

Although Kim Soo-hyun's press conference, which actively denied the controversies, has concluded, public sentiment remains chilly. In fact, suspicions are being amplified once again due to the materials released by Kim Soo-hyun's side, which were analyzed by a statement analysis center.

2. I won't even be at peace even if you d*e

3. Remember he sued someone having such a hard time for 700 million won too

4. How can he be so shameless?

6. How does someone become like that?

7. He's really the devil of devils

8. Hul...

9. He's such a psycho, how can you k*** someone and now go after her family?

10. Wow he's not reflecting one bit

[theqoo] IT'S SO BAD THAT KIM SOOHYUN HAS NEVER MENTIONED KIM SAERON'S NAME EVEN ONCE

April 02, 2025


"I was watching a YouTube video, and during an interview yesterday, Kim Soohyun was being criticized for repeatedly referring to Kim Saeron as 'the deceased.' At first, I just thought, 'Oh, that's not right,' but now, as I'm reading Reddit (the American community), I see that foreigners also view Kim Soohyun's constant reference to Kim Saeron as 'the deceased' very negatively. Even people who only knew someone for a day still call them by their name, so they're furious, asking how someone who once loved the person can refer to them as 'the deceased.' It's as if he's treating Kim Saeron like a stranger he never knew, not someone they were close to."

original post: here

1. Also, Kim Soohyun said the word "Star Kim Soohyun" 30x in his speech?

2. That's why his press conference tarnished his public reputation even more

3. "A star and the deceased"...

4. He sounds like a psych***th ㅠㅠㅠ He will never admit to his fault because he genuinely doesn't believe he's at fault

5. He came to cry and appeal emotionally, but all the words he chose ended up making him look like a psych***th

6. The Star Kim Soohyun and the deceased. It feels strange, like it's stuck in my throat

7. He didn't go to her funeral
Kim Saeron = reduced to the deceased
Bereaved family = not a single mention
Kim Soohyun = "Star Kim Soohyun"
.. This guy is a f*cking psych***th
He called himself "Star Kim Soohyun" 30x but he couldn't say the name Kim Saeron even once. I wondered how much legal coaching he must've gotten~ but it feels like he just showed up with no coaching. What a complete psych***thic f*cker. He did all this just to scare her off with a 700 million won fine?

8. He's so creepy

10. He wants to push the "star Kim Soohyun VS the deceased" so bad

So, they cant record an acapella album because is too expensive, but they can record their songs in acapella for youtube?

Plus, it's not like they have to rerecord an acappella album from scratch. They can keep the vocal stems for most of their songs, and then add some cool vocal harmonies and background vocals.

Quote from NmiXXSupremacist

Mmm, i think they should go for a Japanese album first. Last time i saw they have alot of fans there.
About the spanish album, i believe they should start with a spanish song first. Not like soñar, wich was a song translated into spanish, im talking about a song produced in spanish.

Also, I'm a Spanish speaker, they need to improve their pronunciation a bit more.

I saw a rumor that they are actually planning to release a Japanese album May 28th.

Perfect meme material. I hope K-netz go wild trolling him until he gets his just desserts. Then never mention that man again!~

I was just wondering what happened to Billlie, CLASS:y, and Triple S the other day.

Quote from SooYoung

maybe not an acapella album cuz i doubt JYP would want to invest so much money in producing cost for an album who will sell less than they usually do (cuz special album usually sell less)

but i think it would be great if they start a new content on their youtube channel where they can upload maybe 1 videos each month where they make an acapella cover of their songs

Well, the girls have already mentioned it, so JYPE has probably already given their okay or are in discussions about it.

And, they'll probably just print less of that album and make it limited edition. Shouldn't be that expensive to do.

Quote from DaisyTheGenuine

I think his goal is to bury them in legal fees until they give up and "admit" they lied. Technically they did damage him and he can claim damages in the millions because fabrication doesn't always matter in Korea.

Trigger warning: Anecdotal story from Korean feminists but kinda hammers how ridiculous Korea's anti defamation laws are especially in regards to SA

Display Spoiler

There was a woman who took an acting gig as an extra. She was horribly assaulted by multiple men. Ended her own life, leaving behind a note about how she just couldn't get over what happened to her. The sister who got her job also commits out of guilt. The father has a stroke and later dies.

All that's left is the mom who sues and tries to get justice for her family. She loses the case because it'd been a few years after the incident. The perpetrators go after her for defamation and win. She owes them money

Oh wow....

Are you effing kidding me? So, you're telling me this p*** might actually be able to win and eff over Saeron and her family one more time!? Humanity is really at the bottom of the barrel. Disney really is our only hope.

Sue if you want p***. Be stupid if you want! On what basis do you think you can win? We have photos, handwritten letters, videos, messages. All of which CAN be linked back to you. Defamation WHERE?!

I really hope the family doesn't fold to his empty threats. Cause, I don't see how they lose unless KSH is so powerful that he can somehow pay off the judge. Let his ass sue! Countersue if you have to, and take all of his Disney money!

Quote from atropos

It's not. If anything the morgan wallen guy became more famous after using it. Ppl rallied behind him to own the wokes. Using the n word has no impact on anyone's career in entertainment.

Same country that just put Trump in office. A man who is now actively rolling back policies that were meant to protect black people from segregation, so yeah, unfortunately, I don't think anyone cares except black KPOP fans and people who actually have a sense of empathy for people from other cultures and their sufferings.

It would be nice if they apologized, but I don't think their careers would be over if they didn't. I still love Lisa, but ngl, it does make me sad that companies feed off of Hip Hop and R&B, but refuse to have an ounce of respect for the group of people that created it.

Yeah, I don't know about this.

I feel like at this point, especially since most KPOP artists want to break out into the American markets, companies should know better.

They have been working with a lot of black artists these days. Particularly black rappers, and they know well enough not to release any music with that word even for their Western releases. But, they don't know well enough not to have the artists rap it in a cover.

I'm not saying artists should be completely cancelled if it happened in the past, but for any future KPOP artists, at this point, they should know better.

Bruh. I just joined the discord right as they closed the general chat and are now saying they are done for the day.

And, the only thing I have seen are leaked demos, videos of people saying the N word, and random relationship gossip. Give me back my 30 minutes!

Lily. I love how everything sounds effortless when she sings. She never sounds like she's straining or fighting to hit a note. Even at the top and bottom of her range. Like, I can relax when I hear her singing. I don't know if I ever heard her miss a note. She is almost perfect.

If I had to rank them:

Lily

Sullyoon

Kyujin - Haewon

Jiwoo - Bae

Quote from DaisyTheGenuine

I know about Lily's more...delightfully unhinged moments in her book club and I'm about sullyoon but that's it? What are the other members like

Haewon is the leader, and she's known to be the most quick-witted as well as the most popular member. Bae is also known for her humor and being silly.

Jiwoo and Kyujin are most known for being cute, and Kyujin is known for being an all arounder.
