You are not welcome here if you downplay the situation and the harm that this represents. We have to always educate ourselves and others, including the people we love, to keep this community a welcoming and safe space for everyone.

“Ela desempenhou diversas funções no grupo — recrutadora, líder, letrista, produtora, entre outras — mas seu título mais importante é um que #Haru, #Hyun e #Rui que frequentemente usam para se referir a ela: "Mãe".”
The NYPD has a long and documented history of issues including police brutality, racial profiling, excessive use of force, and discrimination against oppressed communities.
According to Mapping Police Violence*, police violence in the United States has disproportionately affected Black communities and other oppressed groups, with thousands of people killed by police in recent years.
We, as EVOL, should not be afraid to speak up when something hurts or disappoints us.
Supporting an artist also means being able to have honest conversations and share concerns when something has a harmful impact.
If you are able to reach out to Hyun via Bubble, please do so respectfully and, if possible, in Korean

unfortunately, US media extensively exports its pro-police propaganda through movies and tv series. since people aren't usually familiar with the history of policing in foreign countries, it’s common for them to fall for this propaganda. let’s do our best to send messages to hyun, preferably in korean, conveying this point.
if you’d like, you can write what you want to send in the comments, and i’ll translate it for you.
not sure if it’s been mentioned yet but remember we’re also able to communicate with the members through b-stage! there’s the free talk and to.xlov tab. would be useful to post the template over there as well

3. For other members -
NYPD가 사람들에게 해를 끼치는 세력입니다. 절대로 우상화어서는 안 되는 조직입니다.
