Article: AOA's second act... Mina leaves -> 5 members -> Choa's contract terminated
Source: X Sports News via Naver
1. [+484, -6] Are they not going to kick out that trash Lee Jonghyun?
2. [+91, -31] Their songs have been sucking since 'Good Luck' anyway
3. [+57, -0] FNC needs to be boycotted if they don't kick Lee Jonghyun out, and I'm not talking about just their singers but their actors and variety stars too. Lee Jonghyun is tainting the rest of their images. AOA has nothing going for them anyway ever since Choa left. They have no vocals, no album or digital sales, and no fandom.
4. [+41, -2] Mina worked hard for seven years ㅠㅠ supporting everyone!
5. [+29, -9] They were over ever since Choa left. This group is past the point where contract renewals will change anything.

Article: [Exclusive] AOA Choa's contract already over with FNC... "can't reveal exact timing"

1. [+590, -38] The group was over ever sinceChoa left ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ should've been good to her while you still had her
2. [+552, -30] After Choa left, their popularity dropped... and now it's over.
3. [+434, -16] The fact that they let their main vocal just leave like that meant they had no intention of keeping the group around. Contract renewals? I bet you 100% they only did it to keep fans quiet.
4. [+37, -2] Choa was basically the breadwinner of the group before Seolhyun blew up and then she was pushed to the backburner, I would've been pissed too... Choa was what made AOA who they are.
5. [+30, -2] I wish Choa would keep singing. Her vocal talents are too good to waste.
6. [+25, -5] Seolhyun may have seemed like the ace member but it was really Choa. Look at how the group failed right after she left.
7. [+21, -1] They have no main vocal so their songs have been pretty bland with no climax ㅠㅠ
8. [+18, -3] The public only knows of AOA as Seolhyun's group but core fans know how hard Choa carried
9. [+16, -0] I thought her contract was terminated right after she left the group
10. [+11, -2] I find Choa more charming than Seolhyun. She warms up to you with her aegyo and her singing skills were top notch too. I miss her~

Article: AOA Mina leaves instead of renewing... how will she fare on her own?

1. [+364, -12] I bet she'll become a YouTuber
2. [+295, -36] I saw her as the younger version of Kim Hee Sun in their drama and her acting was pretty good. If she works hard, I think she can find a career for herself in acting~
3. [+38, -5] Not sure who any of them are aside from Seolhyun and Choa
4. [+17, -2] I'm sure the members went through a lot of emotional suffering with all the spotlight being on Seolhyun. AOA's pretty much disbanded over...
5. [+17, -3] Not sure you who you are but find strength
6. [+13, -2] She was super charming on 'My Little TV', I think she'll be fine on her own!!! She's a pretty and multi-talented idol so I support her!
7. [+13, -2] I saw her on a daily drama before and she was pretty good. It's probably better for her to go into acting than stay in AOA as a nugu member...
8. [+10, -2] Mina-ya, let's keep training in acting, it's good that you left
