Just a refresher on what Junhyung admitted to, from his own 2019 statement (content warning for sex crimes):

[lovelylaura23]

Not only were the two girls friends, Hara and Junhyung dated for 2 years. It's gross all around tbh.

no one will ever be able to convince me that zico wasn't somehow also involved. he's on camera joking about "the golden phone"! ugh i hate that little bitch

[petitemerma1d]

I'm cracking up at this reply because I can't help but read it like Dani from New Jeans said it. Also fuck Zico.

4minute and Beast produced some classics, but both can leave. Whatever they made 10 years ago or more ain't making me overlook this shit.

I still have their Fact and Fiction and So Beast albums/dvd lying around somewhere amongst by possessions. I wish my grandmother hadn't bought one of them for me so it would be easier to part with it.

(I'm glad you edited the MVs out of your comment. It was a little jarring to see right after the other person's comment.)

[lovelylaura23]

I only have a few of their concert dvds - which I don't even think they're in print anymore. It's sucks their music was so good. Legit one of the most solid track lists. 😭

(Same. There wasn't a comment in here when I started my comment so i wasnt sure if this was gonna be a farewell type of post...but as soon as i realized i nope them out real quick)

[wistfulwisp]

It feels a bit icky owning them, right? Obviously we didn't know what would happen but I still feel somewhat guilty for having them, along with my JYJ In Heaven album.

[mizzyoung]

Bird behavior.

[iznanassi]

genuinely pathetic and also sad

I am so beyond disappointed in Hyuna. Like… wow.
I see a lot of people online trying to make it seem like this is especially terrible because Hyuna was viewed as some pillar of feminism in kpop. I don’t think Hyuna ever set out to be that. She just happened to be a confident performer/ artist who uses her sexuality to make a statement in an otherwise conservative country. But she was not the first woman in kpop to do so and will not be the last.
The part that’s most disappointing to me is that Hyuna and Hara (who he recorded having sex with and threatened to leak the footage) were friends. I can’t imagine what debuting in the industry as young as Hyuna did, and having to hang around those sorts of men as a teenager with a marketed ‘sexy’ image had to have done for her mentally but you would think she’d know better than this.

I agree with everything you said but that was Hara's ex Choi Jongbum, not Junhyung.

[belintuchiha]

Hara dated Junhyung for two years

[ydn1m]

Yes I know but the man who threatened her was a different ex.
