1. [+337, -2] So a stylist needs to have with her a recording device + their own carrier + the support of others in her industry in order for a large company like SM to finally bow down... Irene must've been quite high up on her horse for others to come forward, like the director of her recent movie and other staff...
2. [+302, -4] Look at that pathetic apology ㅋㅋ
3. [+231, -2] This is a comment made by a staff on Irene's movie left on Instagram: "I recently worked with someone who's famous for being pretty.. I've worked in this industry for a long time and have seen plenty of actors, but this person exceeded the imagination. I thought at first that she might just find the film set unfamiliar but that's just how her character naturally is. She's glamorized these negative traits as being shy or sensitive... but I actually felt so bad for her maknae manager. She should just stick to what she's good at. Don't bother others by trying to get into something you don't have the skill for. All of us staff have said... that she had this coming for her."
4. [+200, -3] It's not that she wasn't "mature", it's that she lacked a basic sense of respect. To see other movie and company staff pressing like on the post and leave comments makes me wonder how harsh she must've been to others too, tsk tsk. People are saying that "she had this coming for her". This will follow her for the rest of her career now.
5. [+180, -1] The types of abuse she did: a staff would be helping Irene put on her shoes and Irene would grab the staff's hair to find balance, she'd push a staff on the forehead by the finger and claim she was just "checking up on her"... It's the second post by the editor who exposed her.
6. [+124, -1] What's in that recording that made SM apologize right away? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ She really must have the worst attitude in the world. More and more keeps spilling out.
7. [+113, -0] What kind of life has she lived that there's not one person coming out to shield her other than her crazy stupid fangirls? How can everyone in the industry be coming together to expose her like this? What did she do to them that she's already coming out with an apology before they've already released the evidence? Kids, live your lives with respect for others. It will all come back to you in the end. Life is about looking out for those around you, not living selfishly.
8. [+97, -0] I was always frustrated by people defending her saying she's just "sensitive" but she really did have this coming for her. I've noticed that people who make the same facial expressions as Irene all have disgusting attitudes. At least in school, you can ignore them, but it's a different situation in the work place. She seems to misunderstand the type of person she is because she is not chic at all. Her fans have been too kind to her because of her late debut, always treating her with the "our unni~ our unni~" shields.
9. [+68, -0] Even with the apology, that doesn't change that the stylist is the victim. Imagine the glares she must be suffering at work right now. How can you expect her to continue working with SM? Even with these exposures, the person who suffers the most loss is the party with less power. With 15 years of experience in the industry, she obviously knows how the industry can be, so she must've had enough with Irene to still come forward like this.
10. [+68, -0] You need to be good to people before things get to this point. Apologizing only because they've exposed you is not a genuine apology. I knew that she was relying too much on her good looks to get through TV.

1. [+573, -7] I find it... brazen that she made a veteran with 15 years of experience in her field to kneel before her
2. [+275, -7] This apology has nothing genuine about it ㅋㅋ she's not going to reflect over anything, personalities don't change
3. [+245, -1] Dozens of industry staff are criticizing her... that's an amazing feat in itself...
4. [+228, -3] It must've been really hard to cover up her b*tchy personality as being "shy" all this time ㅋㅋㅋ farewell, I never want to see you again ㅋㅋㅋ
5. [+119, -3] It's obvious what's going to happen next. At their next concert, she's going to sob and cry and her fans will forgive her ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ obvious
6. [+94, -1] I wish the stylist will just release the recording anyway. The apology was obviously ghost written by someone in the company, and there's additional talk about whether even Seulgi's actions count as an abuse of authority or not... Unfortunately, this isn't Irene's first attitude controversy, so... It might've been easy for SM to cover for one or two artists but to have an entire staff of people in the industry coming together like this is pretty big...
7. [+60, -2] The post made it sound like these rumors had been going around in the industry for a long time so I doubt it was only recently that Irene's attitude hit rock bottom. Irene will now represent the stereotype of young people who become rich and abuse their power over others. What a shame. An image is really nothing but a shell.
8. [+52, -2] If she had been any other idol, this would've been the end of her career. She's lucky that she's under SM and isn't getting as much hate.
9. [+48, -0] That recording must have quite the evidence for her to admit and apologize this fast???? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Since she was exposed to be pointing fingers at people, she must've been worse on the recording. To make someone who's been in the industry for 15 years cry at your own actions... how much of a b*tch do you have to be?
10. [+47, -2] Don't want to ever see you again aside from Seulgi and Wendy, bye bye
11. [+52, -2] There's no staff in the industry who doesn't know about how abusive Irene and Yeri are ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
12. [+28, -0] How bad is that recording that SM already has their tail between their legs
13. [+28, -0] I'm going to guess that this will start another chain of #metoos soon
