Right, some people want info and some want for me to be address the full situation so here's a quick, light thread on the Hyuna situation and why the fandoms are unusually unified in their disappointment. 1/?
As a woman whose public image is as a feminist, to be publicly dating someone involved in this high profile abuse of women makes her supposed feminism seem disingenuous at best, a facade at worst. 8/?
Add into the mix that the late Goo Hara used to date Junhyung, was a friend of Hyuna's, helped the Burning Sun investigation, and was a victim of a separate similar incident of SA, people also feel that this is a betrayal of her memory by Hyuna 10/?
Anyway that is my 10 cents. It's very interesting that this has had such a unifying effect on the kpop fandom, but we are all horrified at the Burning Sun scandal and it should always be a stark reminder of the pain women face by men who abuse their power and stardom. [Fin]
None of us are going to be "perfevt" feminists but this is a real slap in the face for fans and non-fans who appreciated her outspoken nature about the issues facing women in the industry, and who has called for more protection of minors like New Jean's 9/?
Fucking hell a flippant observation has blown up so i want to just quickly address the situation and why it has been such a unifying collective horror at Hyuna's decisions here:
Hyuna has recently announced that she is dating Yong Junghyung, an ex-Cube idol (her previous label) who was infamously involved in the Burning Sun scandal. 5/?
