1. i will give it to you that it is hard to watch the staff scold them like that, & maybe they did go a little far, but they weren't questioning their singing abilities, more scolding them on picking songs that didn't fit their voices, & that they chosen to make them stand out
instead of picking something the reflected the team. they still should be able to sing whatever they want, but at that point, showing team work and confidence was highly important as they were scheduled to debut. making any mistakes was not okay, hence why he told them that
they are not trainees and therefore should not act like them. still, they did go a little too far seeing as how sujeong did faint. but she said they gave them good feedback as well, so i will take her word for it https://twitter.com/EUNSANATION/status/1246367269539610624
2. now i agree that the staff should have made sure her ankle was actually okay, but it did not seem so bad before their performance. her injury got worse as they performed. also, she injured herself before going on stage, not during https://twitter.com/EUNSANATION/status/1246367269539610624
4. yeah it's not so cool to pull a disbandment prank on them, but back then that was suppose to create a heart warming moment, it was not meant to hurt them. more show their love for each other and their determination to be in lovelyz https://twitter.com/EUNSANATION/status/1246371159383224320
5. i agree woollim should have done better with jisoo's injury and i give them full flak for not doing so sooner, but as an update, her knee is recovered and has been for a while now https://twitter.com/EUNSANATION/status/1246371698221264896
6. mijoo was sexually harassed two times, but woollim actually did do something about it, as well as deciding to go after people leaving malicious comments on the sns platforms of other woollim groups https://www.allkpop.com/article/2018/12/woollim-entertainment-to-take-further-action-to-protect-artists-after-incident-involving-lovelyz-mijoo
you also forgot the part where jiae was sexually harassed by the same guy, she wasn't even smiling after the comment, it took a female linus saying something sweet for her to smile again. still, woollim did do something about it https://twitter.com/EUNSANATION/status/1246372497043279872
9. woollim was always behind jisoo during the trial and accusations, they even took her to seek medical attention after the news broke out. and best of all, they never kicked her out, which any other company would have. so they were fully behind her the entire time, something
that is very weird for woollim to do as they usually just stay quiet while their artists suffer at the hands of false rumors and scandals. i actually am very thankful that they didn't leave her alone during that time https://twitter.com/EUNSANATION/status/1246374096624971776
side note: bcs the reporting at that time was so spotty, here is the gist of the case. a man and 2 women were behind it all, they photo shopped all their evidence and used already known predebut pics of her as proof they knew her. so everything was based on lies 100%
10. i honestly see no issue with the whole fake date thing. the members looked excited, the fans were respectful, and it was all entertaining. just because it seems weird doesn't make it abuse or mistreatment. https://twitter.com/EUNSANATION/status/1246375012463808518
11. this is something almost every company does with their groups, heck infinite did it too just a little differently. it's just for entertainment, not abuse or mistreatment https://twitter.com/EUNSANATION/status/1246378591832518656
12. at most she looks a little nervous, but not scared, and it makes sense for the managers to say no because the style for the mv and album had already been chosen and prepared, so making changes wasn't really on the agenda. and as rookies, they have little to no say in these
things, which im not for tbh, but that is how things are. if anything, i would say she is probably tired, and a little nervous for the answer, but no one was mean, no one was yelling or had a cold tone. the concept had already been decided, and since its for the photoshoot
these things don't just get changed the day off unless they don't have the proper clothing or makeup. even the members are agreeing with the managers about no bangs, this wasn't any big deal https://twitter.com/EUNSANATION/status/1246387047159304194
13. and since the thread was about woollim's mistreatment, putting in something that you dont know if it was bcs of woollim or not just doesn't sit well with anyone. mijoo is also someone that cries very easily tbh, so she could have been crying for no dramatic or sad reason
and if it was, we don't know the nature of it so we shouldn't assume why, just be there for her. she also could have just been tired, had an allergic reaction, or the contacts were really not sitting well with her eyes https://twitter.com/EUNSANATION/status/1246400192842088448
anyways, hope this helps clear the air. again, not a bash towards op, but please do double check your information before making something like this. and this is not me being a woollim apologist, trust me after 7 years, ain't no way im excusing their behavior, but im also not
about to misinform others simply because i dont like them and how they treat their artist. let's put them on blast, but do it with the full truth, not half the truth with exaggerated bits and pieces thrown in for affect
so i linked the wrong video for point 2, here is the actual video of mijoo and her hurt ankle https://twitter.com/EUNSANATION/status/1246369411323191297
