[ASKKPOP] Rainbow relay condolences regarding Sojin, A-JAX's Hyeongkon deletes his controversial tweet and apologizes
After thetragic suicideof formerDSP Media trainee and 'Baby Kara' member, Sojin, artists from the agency expressed their condolences regarding this heartbreaking incident.
On February 25,Rainbow'sJaekyungwrote,"Rest in peace. She was a friend who always reminded me of myself when I was younger... I hope that she will happily sing to her heart's content at her resting place."
No Eulwrote,"I really hoped it wasn't true when I first saw the reports...I had really hoped that she would do well. Sojin, I wonder if I could have said anything even though it's too late now, but I wish that you would happily live in your resting place with no pain. Rest in peace."
HyunyoungandYoonhyewrote respectively,"Rest in peace,"and,"Sojin, who's always worked harder than anybody else. Everybody, please pray."
A-JAX'sHyeongkon tweeted with some more intensity, however. Rather than expressing his sadness, he appeared, at first glance, angry about the interest that came too late regarding Sojin. He wrote,"Although I don't have a right to say this, as a peer who started training the same day as she in this line of work, I wish that interest like this existed during one's lifetime. Trauma, regret, sorriness, self-reflection; therefore, I wish that nobody would try now to console through ridiculous words and SNS."
However, he later revealed that there was some misunderstanding. Hyeongkon has since deleted this tweet and wrote,"I have erased my writing because there appeared to be content people misunderstood when I had intended to relay something else. [I meant to say] I found it personally regrettable that I had not been able to show more interest during [her] lifetime, and I was criticizing the writing that were maliciously speculating and misunderstanding like this and that on SNS because they were so severe, so I apologize if [my actions] seemed rash."
However, it is not uncommon for a message like Hyeongkon's to come out during times like this. There's always a mixture of sadness and anger as some people mourn the loss and others criticize for the thoughtless responses on SNS. What are your thoughts?
전달 하려는 의도와는 다르게오해의 소지가 있어 글을 지웠습니다살아생전 더 관심 가져주지 못한제 자신이 후회스럽다는 점,그리고 SNS로 이렇다 저렇다 오해와 추측욕설들이 난무한 상태의 글등을 비판한건데경솔했다면 죄송합니다.
