With this decision, netizens were divided in their responses with some hoping they would continue fighting, while others wanted them to return to the agency.
- “No, continue revolutionizing.”
- “Don’t give up on a revolution so easily. Wear luxury brands and keep going.”
- “Don’t return to the agency and keep fighting.”
Others welcomed the idea of them returning to the agency.
- “Looks like they are going to return.”
- “Seems like they are going to go back to ADOR.”
- “The revolution is over?”
- “Nothing will change even if they re-appeal.”
- “Guess they are returning.”
- “So, is it ok for ADOR to set schedules now? Or no?”
Some netizens also felt that the whole controversy was unfortunate.
- “It didn’t make sense when they first exposed someone for not greeting them. People who work in a company know that community sites like TheQoo manipulate public opinion. Although it might make you feel bad, it doesn’t make it grounds for terminating a contract. But turns out that even that was a lie. Even if they return, their image won’t be ike before. I don’t see them as idols anymore, and just as liars. I’ll see them on ‘Sugar Man’ 20 years from now.”
- “There’s something called timing for idols, but they are wasting their golden time…”
- “What did the employees do to deserve this? I hope they don’t go back. It will be awkward for the employees to work while looking at each other’s faces.”
Meanwhile, NJZ’s long hiatus from the industry also garnered heated reactions.
