1. [+1,306, -28] I remember someone commenting before that they thought Hyorin would set up her own agency and they were right

2. [+738, -30] Money is all it takes to earn loyalty and status

3. [+623, -37] Soyu's the only one left in Starship now

4. [+286, -10] Heard one man agencies are super hard to maintain unless they have a ton of consistent income..

5. [+114, -5] Would've been so nice if they just kept the team around while doing solo stuff...

6. [+175, -27] So many popular idols seem to think that their fame will transition with them when they go solo... idols like Hyorin have probably made enough money to live off of, why not just stay and share with the group and still do solo activities on the side. That would guarantee longer fame and income... How many idols have we seen exist from their groups to succeed? We already know the answer... and we're already sick of seeing the repetition so yeah, good luck.

7. [+233, -47] My cold judgment is that Hyorin's fame had a lot more to do with SISTAR than just herself. All of her solo songs flopped on the charts.

8. [+89, -4] One man agencies... are one of the surest ways to blow everything.

9. [+154, -26] I honestly think she's being too greedy

10. [+151, -28] I had my speculations about their disbandment and this seems to confirm it..

11. [+140, -29] She probably didn't expect our reactions right now. She thinks she's some amazing talent but she's a lot less talented than a ton of solos like Baek Yerin, her high notes are so frustrating to listen to, and nevermind her looks... She'll be forgotten easily.

12. [+67, -14] I already predict that she'll be on TV crying in a few years talking about how she was too busy running her agency to focus on her music and how she was scammed, etc...

13. [+80, -21] She lacks the visuals to have any worth as a product on her own

14. [+16, -1] I remember several years ago when Seo In Young set up her own agency at the height of her 'WGM' fame and it failed miserably and she ended up back with Star Empire. Hyorin will be okay since she sings well but I don't think it's going to be easy so fighting.

15. [+24, -4] The SISTAR + Brave Brothers combo was jjang. Without the combo, they're just whatever.
