"It's sad that she rewatched the recording over and over questioning herself..."

"I don't understand people who are criticizing her. Why would you do that?"

"Fans spinelessly defending him and his agency really hurt her twice."

"Why would anyone criticize her? Who in their right mind would spend hundreds just to garner attention... this is tragic."

"I'm upset for her. She didn't do anything wrong."

"Just by reading her statement, I could feel her pain... Stop cyberbullying her. It wouldn't seem like a big thing from your perspective but she must have been deeply hurt."

"Their official statement had so many holes. In the first place, they would have all the fans' personal information who had video calls but they released a statement without confirming with the fan. I feel sorry for her."

"To be honest, they should give her a refund."

"I can't understand Kim Ji Woong's fans... bullying her and still stanning him."

"From her perspective, this is so sad...the whole fandom is mean."

"If my favorite celebrity cursed at me and his fans criticized me? I don't think I could handle that. I would want to deny the entire time I supported him."
