1. [+10,902, -29] As expected of fans of such a celebrity ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+2,798, -20] We need to eradicate school bullying. We may not know how it feels but for the victims, I can only imagine how disgusting they must feel to have to see their bullies on TV acting all kind and nice.

3. [+1,488, -27] To all of you who are threatening the victim right now, I hope you realize that you are no different from a bully yourself and that I hope you are found and sued

4. [+1,147, -16] Truly expected of fans of such a singer

5. [+541, -7] Soojin-ah, are you reading this? You are being selfish and cruel until the very end. I'm embarrassed that I was ever a classmate of yours. All because of you, our junior high school's name has been tainted. Whenever I tell people where I graduated from, everyone only talks about you. You thought that you could get away with this because everyone was keeping it hush hush, right? Everyone remembers that you were a bully except for your friends. How pathetic and dirty of you. If only you had admitted to the rumors when they first came out and apologized, then maybe you wouldn't have had to leave your group and could've gotten away with a hiatus before coming back. You threw away your own chance. You have no shame at all, so don't feel sorry for yourself. You are reaping what you sowed, and you chose this.

6. [+304, -1] ㅎㅎㅎ Their fans are truly showing why they are fans of such a singer.......

7. [+247, -2] Wow, the world's gotten a lot nicer if some ugly kid like her has fans too

8. [+228, -1] Gangster b*tch and her iljin fans

9. [+194, -3] Birds of a feather just flocking together... school bullies need to be exiled from our society forever

10. [+85, -0] You fans! Wake up! Imagine if your brother or sister became victim to bullying? Is that when you'll understand? We never should allow bullies or s*x criminals to live peacefully on our land!

11. [+83, -1] She looks so cheap. Despite her young age, you can see her nasty character all over her face.

12. [+83, -1] Such poor character from her fans. What do they think they can do? Do they think they're important or something? Show your faces instead of hiding behind internet anonymity.

1. [+1,359, -16] Justice prevails

2. [+654, -7] This is the right way to go. It would've been wrong for her to get in the way of the other members.

3. [+456, -7] They're only making her leave now?

4. [+424, -88] When are we going to start kicking out Chinese members from groups? They're going to backstab us for the CCP anyway so why not just cut ties quickly?

5. [+287, -21] Sad to have ever met you, let's never see you again

6. [+142, -11] Stray Kids Hwang Hyunjin, Red Velvet Irene, ITZY Lia, kick them all out, don't let them coast by

7. [+106, -2] If this is how she was going to end up, what made her ballsy enough to demand Seo Shin Ae to speak up? ㅋㅋㅋ

8. [+75, -7] Poor Seo Shin Ae had to suffer because of her

1. [+1,253, -9] If she was going to leave anyway, it would've been cleaner for her to have left sooner

2. [+1,060, -39] What is with her face? They really be letting anyone debut as celebrities these days

3. [+516, -2] Entertainment agencies need to start adding clauses demanding huge penalties should a school bullying controversy occur after debut. We need to make sure that our youth grow up with positive influences. 

4. [+218, -5] Justice prevails. We need to make sure no one suffers at the hands of school bullying.

5. [+210, -2] All because she kept holding on, she tanked her team's image with herself.. should've kicked her out sooner

6. [+87, -0] To all of you teen iljins watching this, take a good look

7. [+84, -2] It was a wonder how a face like hers ever became an idol in the first place

8. [+83, -1] Her agency needs to apologize too. All they did was believe her and threatened legal lawsuits against the victims. They need to apologize for only listening to one side of the story.

1. [+285] Not even surprised... but does this mean they're admitting to the bullying rumors then?

2. [+166] This is the right answer... at least in consideration for the victim

3. [+66] Only now?

4. [+56] I'm so upset... she was my favorite member... so we'll never see Soosoo again..? ㅠㅠㅠ

5. [+36] Sigh

6. [+34] I loved you, Seo Soojin....

7. [+5] Not only for the victim but for (G)I-dle as well, she needed to leave... People were going to like or hate the group regardless of whether she stayed or not but just having her in the group itself harmed the group's image more...

8. [+8] I've lost reason to care about them anymore

9. [+83] There hasn't been much going for the group other than Soyeon's solo so now they can make a clean break and start doing well again. I don't know if the members are upset over this or what but it's better for the group overall.

10. [+15] I knew this would happen and I'm going to miss Soojin but just knowing that everything's confirmed now and I'll really never see her again feels weird...
