News Lovelyz Jin apologizes for having a normal opinion (1 Viewer)

[Abeamus]

Can someone please explain to me what about her opinion hasn't been said before

Jin, who opened her own YouTube channel this past fall, recently posted a Q&A video in which she answered various questions about idol life. One of the topics she discussed was how idols date behind the scenes, and Jin described how idols can sometimes catch one another’s eye backstage at music shows or at events like MBC’s Idol Star Athletics Championships.

She also mentioned that while many agencies are strict about prohibiting dating early on in idols’ careers, they grow laxer as time goes on and idols get further along into their careers.

However, some fans criticized the video, saying that it could cause misunderstandings about the other Lovelyz members.

On February 5, Jin deleted the video and posted the following apology on her YouTube channel

Before I posted my latest Q&A video, I received questions in advance on Instagram, and the questions I received the most were questions about dating.

Since the goal of my latest video was to sate [my subscribers’] curiosity by answering their questions, I personally thought that I’d done a fairly good job answering [those questions] without crossing the line, and I truly had no idea that it would cause this kind of misunderstanding and controversy.

I was thoughtless.
Regardless of my intentions, I think I was definitely wrong to leave room for misinterpretation.
I’m truly sorry for having caused a stir.

I will delete the video in question.

Once again, I apologize.

Following the deletion of her Q&A video, Lovelyz’s Jin released a statement on February 6 via her personal Instagram announcing legal action against malicious comments.

I am currently collecting information with my lawyer with plans to file a complaint against the insulting malicious posts and comments on the Internet as well as Instagram DMs (direct messages).

I would be grateful if anyone making a report regarding this send me the information attached to an email. There will be no leniency.

Idk how it could cause misunderstanding, I feel like she just repeated what people already know. Hope she's doing okay

... she's saying such normal/obvious information tho? christ...

Like is the issue she is implying the other members are dating? she didn't say that, but even she was, so? Again, it's normal....

Fans are the worst. She did nothing wrong. I’m glad she’s standing up for herself with the court thing at least.

I'll never understand knetz thought process

 

[eclipsoul]

companies will make idols apologise for saying the most harmless shit ever but when they say a racial slur it's silent

 

[RandAlThor]

Such a nice voice.

 

[Selfmate]

I mean haven’t other idols talked about how they and their peers date? Why was she targeted for saying it? Poor girl.
