1. [+131] But thanks to the show, you got your dancing and rapping recognized, no? If you didn't want to do all of that, then you shouldn't have gone on the show. It's not like the rest of the kids on the show didn't care about music?

2. [+80] But you requested to be on the show fully knowing what it was about

3. [+65] Didn't you apply knowing what it was about...? And it's because of your time on the show that people recognized your talents and you got to debut. How ungrateful to come back and say this now...

4. [+35] Didn't you go on the show for your own PR? You should've known what you had to do.

5. [+28] She must've thought everyone would be like "uwu uwu it must've been so hard for you~ what a cool thing to say, she's so cool" for saying something like this ㅋㅋ

6. [+27] Why is she saying this and making everyone on 'Produce 101' to be fools ㅋㅋㅋ I don't know why she thinks the kind of music she does is more justified than anyone else's but she knew what she was getting into when she applied to be on the show and it's not fair that she's talking this way about it after the fact.

7. [+20] All singers have a type of music they want to pursue and I hope she goes down the path of pursuing hers!

8. [+17] Hmm.. but that's what put you on the map... I found out about you through 'Produce 101' too

9. [+20] So ridiculous that she's saying this only now.. and rude to the people who never even got an opportunity to be on the show.

10. [+20] But it was her choice...? No one forced her to do it 😵‍💫

11. [+29] People are being too harsh about this. You guys all whine about having to please others to make your money and how hard the employment process is. I'm sure she felt the same type of disappointment when she went on what's supposed to be an audition show but instead of composing music, she was forced to do the same dance as dozens of other girls.

12. [+13] Soyeon, do the music you want to do and continue to grow because you have the skills and confidence to back it up 👏👏👏
