TW: P3dophil1a, inappropriate content. Adressing the Min Heejin situation.

[pika_chuu]

I agree with what you said... but even if it was her choice it wouldn't be okay to PUBLICLY expose her wearing inappropriate clothes. It's fine for her to dress like that if she goes to a party or to the mall with her friends, but she's a celebrity and she can't really have complete control of the information that is posted of her.... and the fact that she didn't choose the outfits makes it 1000000 times worse.

That’s- The last part is exactly what I was saying-? /nm

She responded to everything...but it's absolute crap
I literally laughed while reading it cause it was such a joke.

 

[saaylhy]

woah, i just listened to newjean's songs a few times and would've never thought something like that could happen
no but really i think there should be a law/rule which says that the kpop industry shouldn't allow sexualizing idols? not only for the newjeans/min heejin case but for everything

Wow, she would make such a great YouTuber! /j

minors shouldn't be debuting in k-pop at all tbh

 

[I see that Im icy]

Yooooo she didn't take in mind that her accusations aren't just glamorizing p3d0ph1li4, it's also sexualizing minors and grooming a NewJeans member.

 

[Zerø_21]

She really didn't

 

[pika_chuu]

minors shouldn't be debuting in k-pop at all tbh

I mean, that depends. Like, 17 year olds debuting isn’t a super big issue to me, as they’re nearly adults. It’s the 14 and 15 year olds debuting that I don’t like

fr they're kids doing adult jobs and all the stress that comes with it without necessarily having the maturity to deal with it

EXACTLY I also hate it when some ppl excuse by saying "their just following their dreams". Yea but sometimes those dreams and aspirations should have an age limit

right! if they dream of being a singer at this age they can start by taking lessons with a vocal or dance teacher or even post anonymous covers on platform like youtube.

 

[chaerifyyy]

I'm not gonna stan or support newjeans at all. Even though I love Attention I'm not gonna support Min Heejin cause she's absolutely disgusting. And I know that she is probably very powerful person in the industry so she can get away with whatever she does and she's probably not gonna make an apology any time soon either. soooo yea to conclude i'm not supporting this lady.

 

[pika_chuu]

I just watched a dance cover, and I honestly thought she changed the choreography, but NO, it was the real choreo... I love Attention but why is the choreo so suggestive??

 

[saucetae]

Yes, this is extremely upsetting but truthfully, who is surprised? Kpop companies have always been inclined to exploit and sexualize their younger/younger passing idols. In this instance Min Heejin got caught and there is proof to back it up. But somehow people ignored the fact that this could be a reality for other big companies as well and we need to find out who they are. I promise you Min Heejin is not the only fuck ass creep roaming the kpop industry. (im not trying to take attention away from the MH situation im just stating that there are surely more pedophiles just like her out there working with young kpop idols)

 

[chaerifyyy]

i'm gonna try to stop supporting groups with idols that are 14 and under because the less we support them the less there will be minors debuting in groups and yes that means i'm have to gonna stop supporting class:y

If it helps, you can still listen to their music by watching youtube videos made by other people-- Such as lyric videos. This way, you don't have to support them with your views, but you can still listen to their music.

that's a good idea

I'm just going to write a post here, somewhat a rant somewhat just a fact. It's linked to this situation but is mostly just a statement about celebrities as a whole. I'm only posting it here as it brings up many concerns people have for the NewJeans members.

Especially with the release of Jeanette McCurdy's book "I'm Glad My Mum Died" it's becoming increasingly clear children and minors should not be celebrities. Not in Korea. Not anywhere. I won't lie, I haven't read the book but TW (ed, abuse and potential grooming): Jeanette was forced to become a child actress by her mother, was forced to diet to the point she developed an eating discorder, and had an uncomfortable relationship with someone she named 'the creator'. And the sad fact is Jeanette is definitely not the only one. When you become a celebrity you get opened up to so many toxic situations. Firstly, you have to cast asside studies and work in order to persue the career. If the career fails you are screwed. Second, you have allowed infinite people to have access to everything about you. They can say anything they want to you. They can say whatever they want about you. Most adults can't even handle this, so how is a child suppose to? Three, and this happens everywhere to all child celebrities so I'm ngl it's very stupid for Kpop stans to act like this is only a Kpop issue (though that doesn't take away from the fact that this is happening in Kpop and shouldn't be), you get sexualised by both other teens who think it's okay because they're the same age, or by adults who, whether their intentions are malicious or not, are being creeps. While I think the minimum work age for celebrities should just be 18, I know that's unrealistic, so I think 16 at the MINIMUM should be the age of debut. And 13 at the minimum should be the age of training, though on the higher end would be better.

But another thing is, whether we want to accept it or not, when we choose to support celebrities, we are all running the risk of supporting not good people. Min Heejin is an example of someone who is surrounded by accusations and therefore we have the ability to decide whether to support her or not. I recently saw a video and for many reasons please do take this with a grain of salt because it's K-Tube Shorts and so could easily be false, but the video claimed an ex-worker from the idol industry said that a popular female idol who I won't name but who debuted as a minor and spent most of her career as a minor was constantly approached by adult male idols. These adult male idols might've been the same male idols people stan. But no one would ever think their idol is doing this. Because most celebrities have the smarts to not make it obvious they're bad people. We don't know celebrities. For all we know, we're all supporting a pedo, a homophobe, a racist, a misogynist, a bully etc. We can't know. What we see on the surface regardless of scandals and claims against these people still probably don't reflect the whole truth. I guess what I'm trying to say is, none of us are really at fault if we've supported someone or are supporting a bad person, because there's no real way of knowing what these people are like for sure. Everyone should be able to just make up their own decisions about what feels right for them.

Okay that's all I had to say, feel free to skip the post if you don't care but if you're curious as to what I have to say feel free to read and comment
