1. [+591, -47] So it's either Girl's Day or EXID...

2. [+569, -36] Either reveal the names or don't talk about it at all, so frustrating

3. [+381, -43] Yura

4. [+106, -6] Why bother talking about something you're not going to reveal the name to, it just ends up getting innocent people accused

5. [+80, -5] Way better than serving sponsors. Nothing wrong with a father supporting his daughter's group.

6. [+49, -1] Yura's father is an SK board member and they do live in the most expensive apartment in Ulsan but I don't think he's that rich. And Hani's family is middle income at best, definitely not that wealthy either.

7. [+122, -75] Maybe it's EXID's Hani. She studied abroad in China which any average family can't afford. She's also good at other things which means her family had to be wealthy enough to support her in them.

8. [+56, -10] A Pink??
