In Screenshots, Netizens Sarcastically Comment on JooE's Handwritten Letter About MOMOLAND's Disbandment. In Response, JooE Demonstrated Its Intention To Avoid Misunderstandings.
On February 20, JooE posted a screenshot of netizen comments regarding MOMOLAND's recent handwritten letter controversy. The girl group did get criticized because of their letter when they said goodbye.
In the post, JooE wrote, "Sorry that I can't tell you many things because I'm used to being silent. I will try to show you a better performance gradually. Thank you very much."
In the screenshot photo, a netizen sarcastically comments on JooE's handwritten letter about MOMOLAND's disbandment, saying, "It's pretty obvious that you only wrote this because your agency told you to write it."
In response, JooE showed her intention to prevent misunderstandings when replying, "We wrote it briefly to refrain from controversy and other meanings as much as possible, and we sincerely wrote it for our fans. Thank you."
Previously, JooE also dismissed accusations that MOMOLAND's handwritten letters were insincere copies of each other, saying, "The meaning and depth of what we 6 members want to convey to fans is the same, so our letters were written together after discussion."
On February 14, 6 members of MOMOLAND published handwritten letters following the announcement of their group's disbandment. However, the contents of these letters are almost exactly the same except for the members' names.
As a result, netizens accused the members of being insincere in their goodbye letters as MOMOLAND and immersed them in criticism. Some even left scathing comments under members' SNS posts or sent them DMs filled with rants.
In addition, when JooE appeared on JTBC's "Second World", she shed tears, fully aware of the negative views towards her. Likewise, he is also aware of the controversies and gossip that arose in the process of MOMOLAND's disbandment.
At that time, JooE expressed her mental burden over the rumors and misunderstandings surrounding MOMOLAND, saying, "I think I will be able to do well without trembling if I think that I will receive (positive) attention from the public and MOMOLAND will also get better." (wk/goddess)
