I still struggle with my fears of sometimes being on stage or you know, of singing.
When the clip was posted, Yunjin was hit with a wave of criticism, with many hitting back at her for saying she had a fear of “singing” considering she is an idol. Some even said that if she was scared of singing, they questioned why she became an idol.

Yet, as always, fans came to Yunjin’s defense, sharing that everyone in every profession has fears related to their career, and the idol was just showing emotion. They also hit back that netizens always want idols to be more honest and human, but when Yunjin does it, she always gets hit with backlash and intense criticism.
do y’all just want idols to be robots who show no emotion https://t.co/zgYE4sHiDn

yall think doctors have no fears when going into the surgery room? architects do not feel scared about projecting a building? fear is an essential part of existing as a human being but yall cant view idols as even that https://t.co/Q42z4F6xUu
