- Those idiots at HYBE. Why did they force someone into the group when she wasn’t even committed in the first place?
- At first I thought she had a really unique kind of beauty, but the more I see her, the more ordinary she looks.
- Her outfit is seriously awful.
- She just looks like an ordinary person.
- And she still hasn’t left the group… seriously, sigh
- She really doesn’t seem to have any star quality. I don’t get why everyone’s making such a big deal about her.

- It’s strange. Now, whenever I see her face, she comes across as kind of mean and vicious.
- I don’t even want to comment on whether she’s pretty or not, I just wish she’d leave the group.
- I’m surprised people think she’s pretty. She looks middle-aged to me. Is she really supposed to be an idol?
- I don’t care about her looks or styling anymore. I just wish she’d leave already. I feel so bad for the other members; they’re constantly getting baseless speculation and hate comments because of her.
