the sorn company situation is worrying to say the least, like i really hope the proper authorities are looking into the situation because if someone is aggressive and violent with his talents and employees this needs to be handled properly. there are many stories of kpop trainees and artists being abused and manipulated by companies and ceos so if this is the case, i hope to god it's resolved, scary stuff. sorn might actually be okay as well as other artists under the company, but companies also control their artist's social medias, and statements are always so vague to control and subdue controversies, so i am just waiting for more into to see what's up. i am definitely alarmed by the accusations and i hope we get to hear more.

Seeing NewJeans members getting into stupid controversies just makes me ill. They're babies, they shouldn't be in the spotlight like this in the first place. I've effectively been boycotting them since their debut, not because of anything the girls have done, but because I think turning children into idols is immoral and irresponsible. And of course, between the pettiness of netizens and the decrepit, exploitative nature of the industry, it feels like I'm hearing about "controversies" involving them all the time.

I remember watching it and being impressed by her and other people also giving her a lot of complements for singing/rapping/dancing/song writing. She has the look and the talent/potential to be the next 'Star member' like Gd/Jennie/CL but regardless people are just happy she's returning because it was sad for them to not debut as 7. She worked just as hard as the other girls, of course it's sad she didn't get to participate and a great thing that she back.

Ahyeon is the most popular member of BABYMONSTER, a lot of people have been saying that her and Natty of KISS OF LIFE are the IT GIRLS of the 5th Generation, she has had brands both big and small posting about her like Calvin Klein, VOGUE, ELLE, etc. even in pre-debut era, her cover in LAST EVALUATION went viral, and she's really talented, if you don't believe me go watch LAST EVALUATION, you'll know why she was YG's first pick. She can sing, dance, rap, has star quality, and can write too. Not only that, it's not everyday you have a member return to their group. And all the members of that group is astoundingly talented too.

@@dharling97 No, I don't think that. I know people can accidentally say the n-word in a song and not be racist. For example, I really like rap and I memorized some songs to the point that I can rap along with lyrics. Because of that, I know when the n-word is coming up in certain songs, and when I see it, I can avoid saying it. But people that don't know the songs that well might accidentally say it when trying to rap along cause they're just reading off of the screen without properly thinking about the words. This has happened with a couple of my friends when we were all rapping along together but they apologized when they realized what they said. Ahyeon clearly memorized the rap cause it was for a school competition and people practice for those things. She knew what she was saying. She also added the n-word 3-4 more times to the song than it originally says... I don't think this is the worst thing you could do as racism, obviously, but there are different levels of racism and this is the lowest one. Especially because she never even apologized. People make mistakes, but you have to learn from them. If she had apologized, I could believe that she just made a mistake and became a better person after realizing it, but no. Again, I'm not saying she's the most racist person I know, but she is still racist because someone who is not racist wouldn't say those things and not apologize. Also, I'm pretty sure that the reason she didn't debut with the rest of babymonster is cause YG wasn't sure if the fans would react badly to her being in the group cause of the controversy. He saw that most people wanted her in the group when they were talking about it after batter up so he went ahead and added her now cause she's an all-rounder so that's a great person to have in a group. Still doesn't make it right though and it also shows YG scheming yet again.
