[+1,064] I think she's well within her rights to say this. This is the fault of the journalists who didn't fact check. I saw a few article comments ridiculing her over her age and stuff.

[+814] Her post is written very clearly, not sure why people are taking such an issue with her ㅋ

[+769] I can't believe comments are trying to make her out to be the one in the wrong. You would all be pissed if someone wrote false things about you, wouldn't you? She's well within her rights to clarify herself in a situation like this.

[+235] The Japanese call any photoshoot in a magazine 'gravia.' I know a lot of people automatically assume s*xual connotations with the word but any normal photoshoot in a magazine is considered gravia in Japan. It can also be applied to male celebrity photoshoots. The more proper translation for the word should've just been 'photoshoot' here since we know Koreans assume s*xual connotations with just 'gravia' but I think the media was intending to get clicks by just leaving it as 'gravia' instead of translating it properly. 

[+127] People are always quick to call a woman 'snappy' when they speak up for themselves like this. Just be honest with yourself and admit that you don't like it when women are smart.

[+110] Must be quite annoying to be someone of her status.. people are always misconstruing everything you do..

[+68] She has a cute face but always has such an attitude and a snappy personality so she incites men into picking on her like this ㅋㅋ Men only like female celebrities when they stay quiet and shed tears like NMIXX's Sullyoon ㅋㅋ otherwise they'll immediately call you a snappy b*tch

[+64] I can never tell if she's just victimizing herself or if the media really discriminates against her...

[+55] She's actually quite well-spoken with her words

[+54] The problem is the journalists who write articles from their imaginations

[+45] She always talks way too much... She should be more focused on proving herself with her acting...

[+21] Just like how Koreans read and pronounce 'eh' and 'ae' differently, there are a lot of words that can be misconstrued, especially when dealing with a foreign word like this. If she feels offended or hurt, then it doesn't matter what our intentions were, we are in the wrong. Put yourself in her shoes and imagine that you're being misbranded. It would be so unfair, right? Both the media and the commenters need to be more cognizant of that. Your words are like a boomerang; it can come back to hurt you as well. 

[+11] So it sounds like it wasn't any gravia model debut but just an interview with a magazine. The media wrote 'gravia' to bait that kind of attention ㅡㅡ
