I think this whole NewJeans situation is a small-scale example that shows the structural problems in Korean society

Forcing the girls to return to a company where trust is completely broken and telling them to just finish their contract period is too violent and suffocating.

I believe NewJeans has the right to leave HYBE and be free.

Decades from now, when Korean society looks back on this day, people will clearly realize how all this unfairness against NewJeans was based on outdated values, and they will deeply feel ashamed.

It's disgusting how so many people seem to enjoy 'disciplining' these young girls under the guise of 'teaching them a lesson.' 

Min Heejin, who reportedly hires 7 lawyers to sue an ordinary female employee over a workplace harassment issue, represents yet another structural problems in Korean society.

-Is a contract a joke? What even is the cause of the broken trust?

-Emotions don't solve anything.

-...? Do you think NewJeans would be treated any differently in another country? Legally, they'd probably face even worse consequences. They would probably have to pay more compensation.

-That is exactly what you call a contract...

-Do you think this only happened because they're young girls?? Things escalated this far and you think this only happened because they're young...??

-What do you think is a contract then? If they don't want to return to that company, they should pay penalty fees then.

-Why sign a contract in the first place then?? Just make a pinky promise instead.

-How shameless... Why do you think contracts even exist in the first place?? They brought this upon themselves.

-What do you think the law is?? You can't break the law just by throwing a tantrum.

-That person must be a minor too.

-The result would've been exactly the same even if they're a boy groupㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

-Why do contracts exist? It exists to be followed.

-Where did things go wrong? Do they not understand how contracts work?

-Hang in there, NewJeans, I support you.

-Do they think Korea’s law and contracts are a joke?

-What are they even saying… do they not have a brain?
