One of the members of the famous girl group Red Velvet, posted an apology after accusations of bad treatment towards her manager.
On July 13, Seulgi posted a sincere message on her social media, expressing her regret regarding her actions at the airport the day before.
On July 12, Red Velvet, including Seulgi, departed from Incheon Airport for Kaohsiung, Taiwan to attend the K-MEGA CONCERT IN KAOHSIUNG.
At that time, Seulgi was seen wearing high heels provided by the sponsor when leaving.
However, when he arrived at the airport, photos taken by fans of the singer actually showed him wearing sneakers.
Controversy then arose when it was revealed that the sneakers Seulgi was wearing belonged to the manager, who at that time was seen wearing high heels previously worn by Seulgi.
Shoes that did not match his size and the weight carried by his manager at the time led to accusations of bad treatment from the singer.
In response to this, Seulgi immediately posted a story on her personal Instagram to explain the situation and apologize the day after.
She explained, "Recently, I had blisters and sores on my feet due to exercise. I didn't think the heels I wore at the airport were too high and didn't bring spare sneakers, which was my negligence. When I walked, the pain it got worse, and after arriving in Kaohsiung, my manager suggested swapping shoes only until we were out of the airport to avoid further strain on my feet before the show."
Seulgi further explained that the decision made was wrong, "I made the wrong decision in a moment of pain and did not consider other options. I apologize to those who were disappointed with my actions, especially to my manager, who was definitely hurt because of this incident. I sincerely I have personally apologized to my manager."
Seulgi then ended the message by promising to be more careful in the future so that similar incidents do not happen again. "I will be more careful and make sure this doesn't happen again," he added.
This incident attracted great attention from fans with mixed reactions, while highlighting the intense scrutiny and pressure that idols face. This is because the idol's actions are often observed and judged by the public, often in harsh ways.
Seulgi's apology to be more careful in the future was welcomed by many people.
