Article: Seolhyun under feminism controversy, but why?
Source: Sports Today via Nate
For pressing like on Suzy's Instagram post and unfollowing certain people like Yoo Ah In, Yoo Byung Jae, IU, etc.
1. [+1,537, -282] What's so wrong about organizing her follow list? Maybe she unfollowed them because she doesn't care for their posts. She can't unfollow on her own anymore?
2. [+1,512, -728] Why are men being so sensitive;;; they're not letting these idols say anything at all;;;
3. [+1,418, -326] I feel so bad for idols these days ㅋㅋㅋㅋ at this rate, they won't even be able to speak in Korean because anything they say will be attacked
4. [+132, -56] Our Seolhyunnie, you do whatever you want to do!!!!! Us unnies will support you!!!!!
5. [+127, -52] Seolhyun Seolhyun ^^ It's women who do all the spending anyway so Seolhyun go do anything you want to do, anything~~~~~~
6. [+108, -32] Seolhyun's the best!!!!!
7. [+64, -16] It's funny how men are always praising her body and supporting her but the minute she started dating Zico and they realized they didn't have a chance with her, they started calling her a sl*t and leaving hate comments. Why should Seolhyun act the way men want her to act? The mindset of misogynistic Korean men is so selfish and childish.
8. [+46, -13] I still don't get why being a feminist at all should be controversial
9. [+35, -6] The funniest part is when men say she's no longer bride material because she's a feminist ㅋㅋ excuse me but who's passing on who? ^^ These men need to realize their true worth
10. [+35, -11] Men, please put your hand over your heart and ask your honestly... have you ever called yourself someone's fan and supported them financially? Did you ever buy albums, buy concert tickets, buy Seolhyun's CF products? The majority of men who call themselves fans, all they do is watch sexy fancams on YouTube and look up provocative pictures on Tumblr or Google. Do you even stream songs when they have comebacks...? I think it's great that Seolhyun can escape these men now. More women will become her fan with her support and women are known to be the financial powerhouses within fandoms. Buying albums is a basic task for women. When men leave a fandom, they do so by deleting pictures off their computer. When women leave, it affects album and merchandise sales. I always thought Irene's feminism controversy was so funny because when men posted about how they were leaving her fandom, the pictures they posted of ripping up her products were not official merchandise or albums but unofficial photocards ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I thought at least they had bought her albums and were throwing them out... So who spends the money? Female fans~ all male fans do is call themselves fans while posting sexual harassment pictures. Just search Seolhyun on Naver... no wonder Seolhyun became a feminist.
