On Weverse, a fan asked her to recommend a song, and Yunjin replied with FIFTY FIFTY’s ‘Gravity’
A FIFTY FIFTY fan who saw this then posted this on Twitter, and now international fans are questioning why people aren’t boycotting FIFTY FIFTY
Damn as someone that is as chronically online as her I actually expected better from Yunjin than to recommend them. I hope FEARNOT on Weverse went ahead and educated her on the situation in case she actually doesn’t know. Fuck HYBE & ATTRAKT, boycott FIFTY FIFTY, support 3Jeong! https://t.co/E5KrbYeRnf

Right now, that fan has set their account to private, so the other QRTs aren’t visible anymore, but tweets with similar content have over a thousand RTs now. I expect that this blew up not only in the QRTs but also on Weverse.
In the end, the comment was deleted.
What makes it worse is that today is Heo Yunjin’s birthday, and LE SSERAFIM’s intl fans are angry, asking why she would do this on her birthday and telling others to stop using the boycott excuse to harass idols.
Early in the FIFTY FIFTY controversy, large Kpop accounts with many followers took a stance supporting the three members who left, so the intl fandom still has a boycotting attitude towards the new FIFTY FIFTY lineup. Whenever idols, including Yunjin, show any positive reaction towards the new FIFTY FIFTY, they would tell them to boycott the group and stuffs🤦♀️
I don’t support FIFTY FIFTY, but some Kpop fans need to understand that YES, the person you like knows about the boycott, but no one in Korea is actually boycotting. Since Korea supports FIFTY FIFTY, it’s not surprising that Kpop idols would support the new lineup.
Even when reasonable international fans explain that no one in Korea is boycotting FIFTY FIFTY and that the three members lost the preliminary injunction case, some still believe the Korean courts manipulated the outcome. (Surprisingly, this is true..) There seem to be more international fans like this than expectedㅠ
This isn’t just happening to Heo Yunjin, but to other idols as well, and it’s still ongoing… It seems like things are even more chaotic because LE SSERAFIM has a lot of international fans🥲
-They’re doing their own activities and they even got into a new company, so why shouldn’t people support those three members? Instead of bashing idols who are not even f*cking related to them, supporting them would be more helpful. We will happily listen to FIFTY FIFTY’s songs, so take your betrayers and leave.
-International fans believe in manipulated information and keep rooting for those three members who left. It’s absurd.
-International fans fascinate me… They don’t bash the ones who deserve to be bashed and bash the ones who are not supposed to be bashed.
-Why would you boycott FIFTY FIFTY? You dumbasses.
-They’re so dumb. If they love those three members so much, they should take those three with them.
-Why are international fans always like this?ㅋ
-If you want to boycott them, do it yourselves as you wish. International fans fascinate me sometimes.
-What’s the issue with those international fans…
-Why do international fans act like they know better than the Korean judicial system?
-They don’t bash the idols they should be bashing and instead bash unrelated ones. It’s strange.
-What are they even saying… These dumbasses…
-It’s ridiculous how they try to teach Koreans about Korean matters… Just shut up if you know nothingㅠㅠ
-International fans are really something else…
-Why are they supporting them? I’m curious.
-International fans really act like a cult.
-Why do international fans always cite the wrong information…?
-Time to listen to Gravity.
