Actress Ryu Hyoyoung’s Instagram Update
“Hello. This is actress Ryu Hyoyoung. First, I’m very sorry to have concerned so many people. I’m posting this in order to tell you about the text message issue I was involved in, in my younger sister’s bullying controversy.
We were around 20 years old then. We left our hometown for Seoul alone. We thought that there were no adults around us that we could rely on, and we could only rely on each other as sisters. In that situation, I heard shocking things from my sister. She claimed that she had been outcasted by the T-ARA members, and told me that ‘things were hard,’ and that she ‘missed me.’ I had tried to stop them from bullying my sister, resulting in my messages.
I do think that having sent the messages was rather foolish and immature of me, and still regret it to this day. I apologized to Areum for the messages I sent her previously, but I am still sorry.
But there was nothing I could do as a 20 year old. I was afraid that if I just let things be, my sister would make an extreme choice. It was the best I could do to protect my precious family member, as a young and insufficient person. I believe that everyone will know this too.” – koreaboo
1. They were all so young and it seemed like there were no adults around them to guide them properly at that time
2. Hyoyoung apologized to Areum. Did the T-ara members apologize to Hwayoung?
3. Public opinion changes so often that I don’t know what will happen anymore, so I’ll have to wait and see
4. I completely understand how Hyoyoung feels
5. Hyoyoung had already apologized and was forgiven by the person involved. What else could she do?
6. Areum said she understood but at least Hyoyoung apologized. What did T-ara do? For 12 years?
7. I think I’ll do the same as Hyoyoung, maybe even more
8. Honestly, if the same thing happened to my sister, I think I would do the same
9. I don’t think any older sister would turn a blind eye to her younger sister being bullied
10. If my sister gets bullied, I’ll do even worse
