Former FANATICS’ Doi has revealed that the company used to force her to keep her weight under 40kg, reaching as low as 38kg at debut while being 1.70m tall.
She also adds the members used to receive verbal and physical abuse frequently.
“The company used to tell us we were not humans, we were products, the only thing that mattered is that we sold well”
Rough translation:
Hello, this is Hyunjin.
I thought for a really long time about how to even begin.
I always wanted to show you only my best self on stage, so it weighs heavily on me to be sending my greetings through a letter like this.
After a long period of reflection, I've recently decided to bring my activities with Latency to a close and to end my exclusive contract.
The moments of playing the drums and standing on stage, and all the moments I shared with you, will stay with me as precious memories I'll never forget for the rest of my life.
But over the course of continuing these activities, I became very worn down and struggled with my health, and I've come to feel that I need some time to take care of myself for a while. This wasn't an easy decision, which makes it all the more careful one, and I feel deeply sorry toward everyone who has cheered me on.
Even so, thank you sincerely for believing in me and supporting me all this time, and for being there with me through every moment.
It's because of you, the fans, that I was able to hold such truly happy memories.
I ask that you continue to give the Latency members lots of support going forward, and I'll do my best to take care of myself and return in a healthier state.
Thank you, truly.
eu nao to aguentando gente amargurada falando mal delas, era so olhar pra cara da onda em qualquer momento do show que vc via o quao feliz ela tava em estar ali.. as pessoas sao mt frustradas que elas conseguiram continuar vivendo os sonhos delas
Realmente me machuca ver comentários sobre essa tour falando mal delas kkkk elas são tão fortes de continuar seguindo seus sonhos mesmo com 4 integrantes e em uma nova empresa.. everglow vcs são incríveis! Só quem viveu sabe o quanto foi maravilhoso e o quanto vcs são dedicadas
they overly played in this girl’s face by eliminating her 2x when she has a similar visual vibe to the girl they picked, can at least sing and she’s an adult..hybe genuinely just wanted a minor in the group
Pra vocês entenderem a importância desse acontecimento, a última vez que o Kep1er performou Galileo nós ainda achávamos que elas iriam dar disband em Julho de 2024
