Article: The full account of the Loona scandal

1. [+251] Blockberry should feel lucky that she didn’t rip into them worse when she’s stood by all these years while they failed to pay her.. “You graduated from elementary school at least, right?” That was shocking of them to ask her and completely inappropriate of them to look down on someone by asking that.
2. [+188] If she hadn’t spoken in such a tone, how much worse would they have treated her? How many more schedules would they have piled on top of her without pay?
3. [+176] ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ So she danced for one second on a fan facetime when asked to give a hint/spoiler, which is something that idols do all the time, but Blockberry went straight to her mother and demanded that they take responsibility for Jiwoo’s “mistake”… considering the ridiculousness of the situation, isn’t Jiwoo’s attitude back pretty tame? All she asked for was “please respond, are you not going to respond?”
4. [+147] She shot 13 personal CFs, has never failed to show up to a schedule since debut… the only one abusing anyone is Blockberry for failing to pay her for her work. Chuu does not even utter a swear word in any of these texts.
5. [+65] She worked for them for four years without complaint without pay the entire time, who’s abusing who here? ă…‹ă…‹ And to think that Loona’s having a comeback through all of this.. their agency is truly blinded by greed ă…‹ă…‹
6. [+43] I don’t think it’s fair to cut the conversation of Chuu talking back right where it begins. We have a right to know the context before her texts begin as well. It’s obvious Blockberry is trying to shift public perception of her by cutting it there but we’re not fools, we see why the conversation was cut where it was, because it’s at a perfect place to cause misunderstandings… Honestly, I think Chuu was too nice to even respond the way she did considering she’s worked for them for years without pay ă… ă…
7. [+5] Did they think we would hate Chuu if they released these texts?;;
8.[+3] ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ Anyone would be mad if their company went straight to complaining to their mother over a fan facetime with a one second spoiler, especially when you’re already being overworked like a dog for no pay
9. [+19] Chuu is an angel ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ she made 2.5 billion won in 6 years but was only paid 60 million won of it, I’d be swearing up a storm in the texts if I were her
10. [+1] Sorry Blockberry but these texts don’t count as abusive~~~ you’re still cleary in the wrong, tsk

1. [+110] Blockberry’s trying so hard to make her look bad but you know they themselves would be throwing a fit if their own paychecks were ever late even a month ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹
2. [+108] Wait, they really put these texts out to claim she’s being abusive ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹ă…‹? ă…‹ă…‹?
3. [+106] Her texts are quite tame for someone who hasn’t been paid a penny for the past five years…
4. [+75] Anyone would be foaming at the mouths for a paycheck that’s even a month late but Chuu endured this for five years… ă… ă… ă… I can’t even imagine
5. [+6] They’re really trying to claim she was being abusive when others would pass out at the thought of their paychecks being delayed even a few days??
6. [+2] Ugh, how are any of her texts abusive.. tsk tsk tsk
7. [+1] But I do question why she had this attitude towards her manager when it’s her company that isn’t paying her. Her manager is just another employee of the same company too.
8. [+8] After reading about Lee Seung Gi and Chuu’s scandals, I feel bad for the managers who have to suffer in the middle… they get all the hate just for being the middleman
9. [+46] She was only paid 200 million won out of the 2.5 billion won owed and yet she’s still speaking in formal tone with them instead of swearing up a storm like I would have…
10. [+7] Blockberry obviously thought sharing these texts would get Chuu hate and yet
