and so it starts....

So, just some hours ago, it was reported that Soyeon of T-ara was in a car accident on her way to film her drama.
Koreaboo

After this story broke out, netizens, internationally and korean have gone and posted ridiculous comments on how this is karma working. As commented on the situation by anti kpop-fangirl, these netizens are just plain retarded. You dont go full retard people, you seem like an ass and a dumbfuck when you do!!

Soyeon, thankfully is ok as well as the staff that was with her. She only had minor injuries according to CCM. Her drama schedule for the day is canceled.

More after the break


Meanwhile, before this accident The Chosun Ilbo did an interview (with video) with Soyeon. The interviewer basically went straight down to it asking :
Q: Let’s get straight to the point. Was there a ‘bully’?
A: I also saw the ‘evidence’ the netizens uploaded online. I did think that if that was all they saw, the ‘bullying’ point of view could have made sense. It is true that there were negative feelings towards Hwayoung during our Tokyo concert. When Hwayoung claimed she couldn’t perform because of her leg, and when she was at the beauty shop by herself when we were practicing, there was a fight between the members. Following the performance, we told the President to handle this for us. Starting from that point, many things happened and we didn’t know that it would lead to Hwayoung’s departure.
Q: Are you saying that the members did not want Hwayoung to leave the group?
A: Not at all. We all learned about this through the articles. We were angry at our company. All we said was there was a point of conflict, so we asked them to find a solution. If Hwayoung leaves like this, the blame goes to all of us. But our President told us, “let’s do it like this for Hwayoung’s sake”. We felt very torn.
Q: The other members never left out Hwayoung? Is it true that there were rifts in your relationships?
A: There are 7-8 teenage girls in their ‘teens and twenties, all staying together. Everyone want to be famous and become recognized, so it’s impossible to have no conflicts at all. Every day, members fight and apologize, stay together and separate. It was a similar situation with Hwayoung. If you’re asking if we had bad relationships because of that, then everyone in our group has bad relationships. 
Q: This is your first interview after the scandal.
A: I was very afraid and scared. But the other members will soon go into sitcom filming as well and will need to take questions from the media. I figured since it has to happen someday, I might as well be the first.
 
Soyeon seems to be honest with her answers. As before in my previous post, I have said that netizens are over thinking this bullying case. They are thinking too hard into it. I for one do not think there is any serious bullying, just teasing and making Hwa just feel isolated. This goes on for any group, even among best friends. There was no mischievous plan to hurt Hwa, or some devilish acts to cause her psychological harm.

You can take from the interview that the members NEVER did want Hwa to leave. They asked the company to handle it and the company DISASTROUSLY handled it in a way that have torn the fandom and the image of T-ara. I have always blamed everything on KKS and not the girls. With this interview, EVERYBODY should blame KKS and not T-ara.

Then again, you will have those conspiracy theorist that will say, KKS told Soyeon to say this to put the blame on him solely to lessen the torned up image of T-ara so they can rebuild again. I'd say, the fucker should have done that from the start.....
