“Kim Sae-ron, wedding rumors…’Marry’ wedding pictorial? Taken with friends”
“[Reader Patch] “Life Hardship Race?”…Kim Sae-ron, Captured Playing Hold’em”
Most of the comments criticize the double standards of Theqoo (a popular Korean forum) users, with many users expressing their dissatisfaction that the forum blamed Dispatch for its previous articles about Actress Kim Sae Ron, while many members themselves were participating in spreading rumors and negative comments about celebrities.
Knetizens:
- The users on TheQoo were the ones who reposted those articles and caused a stir.
You started again, lol. - Does TheQoo have the right to blame others? When things like this happen, you find a way to appear innocent while attacking the perpetrator so harshly, and that’s disgusting. You wrote the bad comments yourself, and you didn’t just criticize. You just silently
- Can people rely on an online forum to the point that they consider it their personal space? I never thought that TheQoo was “my personal forum.” It’s funny that some users are attacking Dispatch instead of taking responsibility for the negative comments that some of them have written.
- Don’t pretend to be innocent, lol. How many rumors have spread here about my favorite artists? It’s common for someone to be criticized on the forum every day, so why shouldn’t we criticize it?
- When articles are published, people jump up to dance with their knives, then blame Dispatch, lol.
- Why should we blame Dispatch? TheQoo has no right to do so.
- Don’t use these articles as an excuse to justify your actions.
- Why are you so eager to attack others?
- Let’s start by showing the negative comments written by TheQoo users themselves. There are so many that I can barely count them all.
- Both TheQoo and Dispatch should be criticized, but some people here are defending Dispatch for no apparent reason.
- I saw the titles of these articles in TheQoo’s hot topics list.
- It’s disgusting that these articles are being reposted and re-posted at this point.
- “TheQoo” mocks other forums for being full of abusive comments, but when they get criticized, they say “we’re not part of this!” They always show up in lawsuit articles.
- In any case, “Dispatch” itself is a problem and should be shut down.
- It’s funny that “TheQoo” criticizes “Dispatch” while they themselves hide behind masks and relentlessly attack others.
- “TheQoo” and “Dispatch” are exactly the same.
- If “Dispatch” publishes inflammatory articles and they spread to “TheQoo,” that doesn’t mean “Dispatch” shouldn’t be criticized. The press should be held accountable for their actions.
- Does “TheQoo” have the right to criticize “Dispatch” when they themselves have written a lot of abusive comments?
- The real problem is that there are so many people who consume this type of content that newspapers continue to publish it.
- The place that criticized Kim Sae Ron the most is “TheQoo”, lol.
- Let’s be honest, “TheQoo” writes more offensive comments against female artists than male artists.
