Article: Jihyo's statement under controversy... is '웅앵웅' really a word of misandry?

1. [+1,077, -264] Since people are saying that '웅앵웅' is not problematic, male idols should also be able to say 'stomping around' as often as they want ㅋㅋ

2. [+1,071, -675] Imagine if Kang Daniel told someone to stop 'stomping' around ㅋ

3. [+1,062, -320] Remember all that hate Jun Hyosung got for using an Ilbe word? '웅앵웅' is ilbe-tier but look at these shields. Maybe her fandom's just so big, tsk tsk.

4. [+201, -69] I do know a lot of feminists who use this word... let's be real, it's not a normal word to use

5. [+192, -53] If BTS said something using an ilbe word, I dare you all to shield them too ㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+175, -38] It's just cheap of her

7. [+135, -28] Pathetic that she would talk like this to a fan

8. [+108, -68] Wait, the word is used for misandry? I thought it was just a popular slang for when someone's speaking a load of crap. I guess we should all be looking words up before using them ㅜㅜ so many words that are being misappropriated..

9. [+96, -24] I don't think it's the specific vocabulary that's the problem here ㅋㅋ

10. [+58, -5] Her use of '웅앵웅' is weird but so is calling a fan an attention seeker

1. [+3,816, -628] I think she's the first idol group leader to call a fan giving criticism out as an attention seeker and then accusing them of '웅앵웅'. What did the other fans do to deserve this? It's true that this was thoughtless of her.

2. [+2,475, -146] I understand her frustration but it wasn't mature of her to say that

3. [+1,710, -148] How kind of her to give people something to attack her with in case they didn't have anything already

4. [+1,369, -116] Whether the word is used in Megalia communities or not, it's just shocking to me that she would use such a low class word... can't tell if she's got a flaming temper or if she's just lost her roots

5. [+1,712, -493] This is rich coming from the most unpopular member of the group ㅋㅋㅋ

6. [+597, -51] Such a cheap, low class choice of words...

7. [+503, -26] Your choice of vocabulary and manner of speech are a reflection of your character

8. [+649, -287] I never took Jihyo for this type, it's disappointing!! She was my favorite in Twice... Please don't show your face on TV again. Go work in Japan.

9. [+410, -53] For all the money they make, they should be expected to accept some things. You can't only have it good, especially when you're making easier money than most.

10. [+363, -27] '웅앵웅' is a problem but the way she treats people with her words is the bigger problem

1. [+266, -75] Shouldn't it be Jihyo who should be giving an official statement right now?

2. [+235, -64] Dahyun was caught glaring and being rude to an airport staff a few days ago. Twice's trash fandom blamed it on the airport staff. Then we have the leader Jihyo who not only called her fans attention seekers but '웅앵웅' too... Shouldn't we be getting statements from them?

3. [+190, -30] The fandom's in a severe mood right now... and it's only now that she's reacting. The members posted back to back yesterday on their official fansite. Nayeon, Sana, then Momo... when the members usually never post on that site ㅋㅋ

4. [+39, -10] A leader should be an example... instead she got caught dating in secret, caught using a Megalia word...

5. [+26, -16] Don't be sorry! It would be a problem if you didn't do your job because you were busy with your relationship but Momo has always worked hard on stage and communicated with her fans. I wish her happiness to be her priority.

6. [+23, -10] What an overlap to her leader's words yesterday

7. [+18, -13] Left the fandom, have a good day

8. [+17, -16] I support you~

9. [+15, -2] "Money, don't leave me"

10. [+13, -2] It's crumbling down in one moment

1. [+946, -116] She must think she's some top star or something ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ how could she say something like that without even thinking?

2. [+939, -82] Why is Jihyo staying quiet while the other members are clarifying it;;;

3. [+878, -86] She causes the scandal and leaves the others to clean it up

4. [+100, -11] Crayon Pop and Jun Hyosung got a ton of sh*t for using ilbe words while Jihyo uses a Megalia word and has fans defending her saying it's just an internet slang ㅋㅋㅋ ilbe and Meglia are both trash

5. [+82, -23] She's the team leader and yet she's running her mouth like this... Jihyo is just as dumb as Seolhyun, tsk tsk tsk...
