1. [+2,038, -93] This feedback is exceeding my imaginations ㅋㅋㅋ Pledis, you're going to be in big trouble if you act like this
- I feel bad for the other members ㅠ
- I'm a man who's a Kang Dongho fan but I feel like he needs to clarify what happened and apologize
- Pledis should've waited until they could retort every single accusation instead of sweeping it under the rug like this ㅠ how upsetting
- Pledis at it again ㅋㅋㅋ this isn't the first time they tried to make a victim seem like a rumor mongerer ㅋㅋㅋ I can't believe Pledis because the evidence is undeniable this time
- I really liked Kang Dongho for his sexy imge, now I'm just horrified

2. [+1,571, -76] Pledis are you insane?

3. [+1,356, -70] That's it? Pledis, you think you can sweep this under the rug again? Nope, not going to happen

4. [+1,222, -60] ...? That's it?

5. [+1,402, -157] Please don't support Pledis in this. It's because we show support in actions like this that Korea is a difficult country for women to live in.

6. [+571, -26] Then what about the recording the victim uploaded? That's not Kang Dongho either?

7. [+569, -30] Pledis is trying to cover the sky with one hand

8. [+544, -26] Pledis, are you insane...? Do you not understand what's going on..?

9. [+456, -14] That's it? What's Pledis even saying?

10. [+480, -26] I knew Pledis would come out with the standard response ㅋ

11. [+484, -17] Okay fine, let's say none of it's true. Then at least take the time to retort every accusation that's being made. If all you say is you're going to take legal action, then it's just upsetting the fans more and leaving them in an awkward situation. Don't put out a statement at all if you're not oging to do it right.

12. [+511, -27] What is Pledis going to do if the rumors end up true..

13. [+418, -15] This is wrong, Pledis.. please think this over

14. [+351, -9] I don't think Pledis has seen the phone recording yet ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

15. [+352, -10] You need to clarify what happened before taking legal action

16. [+325, -7] Pledis is sending NU'EST to the grave with this decision

17. [+304, -10] Are they insane ㅋㅋㅋ

18. [+247, -7] Is this a joke? The victim put out a detailed statement of what she suffered and Pledis dares call it all a rumor?

19. [+264, -8] Some of you are disgusting me saying you feel bad for Jonghyun because of this scandal when the real victim is the victim herself

20. [+234, -10] The voice is definitely Kang Dongho and if he didn't sexually harass her, he would've said something like "what're you talking about?"

Article: [Exclusive] Netizen claims to have been sexually harassed by Kang Dongho... reveals history of phone convo

Source: Kuki News via Nate

1. [+1,106, -137] Hate only after the truth has come out

2. [+848, -142] Looks like he's made it... hit the media as soon as his name was mentioned.. ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+704, -116] For those asking why she's coming out with this now, at least read the article... Their families are close so she didn't want to make a big deal out of it and he was barely on TV and only promoted overseas so she forgot about it and moved on with her life but now that he's famous and everywhere on TV, it's harder for her to ㅋㅋ

4. [+125, -12] Taking his side and hoping to bury this is not what you should be doing as his fan. I'm sure the majority of his fan are women and I hope that you leave comments at least in consideration for the victim.

5. [+119, -134] Why now that he's popular when she knew for 8 years? Shouldn't she have brought it up earlier?

Article: NU'EST Kang Dongho hit with sexual harassment rumor... Pledis 'silent'

1. [+1,022, -64] For someone who's on the verge of superstardom, he responded oddly to the victim's call. Normally your first response would be "what are you talking about? I'll report you!" if it really is just a rumor, but instead he responded, "I'll call you back later, I'm busy right now" ㅋㅋ

2. [+1,049, -99] Please stop worrying about NU'EST right now... the victim has been living in pain this whole time, stick to your worries about NU'EST at your fancafe..

3. [+660, -24] People are not getting the point. Imagine if someone who gave you pain that you can never erase for the rest of your life is on TV now and you can see them and hear them at every street you go to, all over SNS... isn't that terrifying? I've loved NU'EST since debut but if a crime has been committed, the price must be paid.

4. [+374, -9] You really can't shield this, the voice in the call is 100% Kang Dongho

5. [+265, -6] I refuse to let an idol get away with sexual harassment
