HYBE has began erasing traces of Kim Garam from Le Sserafim.
As of the 20th, member introductions on Le Sserafim's official website have been updated to show the group is composed of "5 multi-national members: Sakura, Chaewon, Yunjin, Kazuha and Eunchae."
Some portal site profiles also now introduce the group as five and Kim Garam as "withdrawn" member. Kim Garam's profile status has also been changed to "singer" instead of a Le Sserafim member.
Other portal site profiles will be updated after reviews are conducted as change requests on a portal profile applications usually take 5-7 days.
- [+1,323, -58] As a Le Sserafim fan, I endured and endured again but to be honest, yes Kim Garam was in the wrong but HYBE is a bigger issue. The fact that they didn't even bother doing a background check before debuting her is proof they don't deserve title of a 'Big 3' agency in our country. They got lucky and hit daebak with BTS and exploded suddenly to the top so they think they're really a top agency but don't be mistaken.. they only look big from the outside. I hope they learn from this scandal and truly transform to an agency worth 'conglomerate' title..
- [+1,211, -15] She probably thinks she's was just unlucky this time and won't show remorse or reflect on her criminal past..
- [+704, -10] Iljins! You better give up thoughts of pursuing celebrity or idol careers.. this is how you'll get exposed and kicked.. your dirty past will always come to light.
- [+601, -5] Iljins need to know from an early age that bullies can never become public figures and parents and teachers should be educating kids like this. They should also be banned from appearing on TV to avoid secondary assault on victims.
- [+591, -5] This is a good case. Let's make an example out of her and show kids that are playing iljins right now. Iljins need to be banned from working in the entertainment industry forever!
- [+77, -0] No one cares how you live your life.. just know karma will always come back to you two-fold. That's just how life is.
- [+27, -0] An exit is an exit and all but shouldn't HYBE be putting out an apology for threatening victims and assaulting victims twice with their denials?
- [+25, -7] She's just a modern-day gisaeng that sold her non-talents on stage to fans to earn a few bucks.. nothing more, nothing less.
- [+20, -0] Just make sure you don't go to Han River.. that's water we all drink!
- [+18, -0] I knew Kim Garam through an acquaintance before her scandal.. she has always been a problematic bully that even her own friends gave up on her..
- [+15, -0] Hyolyn is still coming out .. kick her out of the industry too!
- [+6, -0] This is what HYBE should've been doing pre-debut..
