1. [+590, -128] Being judged is a part of the job of being a celebrity. It's because you survived those criticisms that you made it out with popularity and wealth.

2. [+412, -66] Well comments like "you have a great body", "you're pretty", and "you're thin" are judgments as well... you can't just categorize what you don't want to hear as hate comments and what you like hearing as good comments ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+389, -87] That's what it means to be a celebrity. Don't like it? It's not like you didn't know that this is what it was like? But I guess now that you're wealthy and full, you don't like hearing all that stuff anymore? Then quit. Have some shame. You don't want to be judged for your looks? Well did you stop to realize that you're a singer who has no singing skills or the ability to pull off a freestyle dance? You can't do anything and yet you made it this far, right? Am I wrong?

4. [+24, -9] She's right though, Sunmi gets judged so hard. People think comments like that aren't hate but it is.

5. [+17, -1] Netizens don't seem to realize that judgy comments are hate comments too ㅋㅋ I understand that celebrities are public figures and can be judged for their mistakes but Sunmi has not done anything wrong and there's no reason for her to be judged like this. Celebrities aren't trash cans for you to dump your problems on.

6. [+10, -0] Celebrities are products in the end...

7. [+8, -0] I feel bad for her but she's making more money than most of us could dream of ever making. She should take a page from Kang Ho Dong who considers the discomfort he feels as a star as a part of his paycheck.

8. [+7, -3] The job of a celebrity is to be a product

9. [+6, -3] But isn't it funny? I know hate comments are bad but aren't celebrities a type of 'product'? I don't think there's anything wrong with them being judged. If they don't get any comments judging them on their looks or singing ability, they're just going to disappear into nowhere; The whole point of being a celebrity is to create gossip to stay relevant...

10. [+5, -1] So she's made enough money now where she's getting pissy with being judged. Then quit. Why stay quiet when she needed the money and now she's whining? tsk tsk
