[THEQOO] Industry insiders have revealed their stance on the Red Velvet Seulgi controversy.
Red Velvet Seulgi's Manager's Thoughtful Action Became 'Abuse of Power'
Other agency officials besides Seulgi expressed their regret over the current situation.
An industry insider said, “It seems like a thoughtful action by the manager that shows meticulous consideration and professionalism.” Could this really be defined as ‘excessive power’? Seulgi is known to be polite to her staff, which makes this controversy even more unfortunate.”
Another female idol insider said, “Female idols often have to wear high heels, and if they don’t have a spare pair, the representatives often lend them shoes. It’s part of creating the best possible performance, and they’ve donated shoes before.”
Another manager said, “Seulgi is someone who is respected by managers to the point that there are even comments like, ‘I wish my idol was as good as Seulgi.’ Of course, this is just a manager doing his job. I’m a man, so if the size is right, I would have lent her sneakers. If not, I would have bought her slippers. If it was an exposed space like the airport, I would have chosen sneakers that matched her fashion. The sneakers in the photo don’t match her outfit at all, and I would have made the same choice.”

1. Fighting, Seolgi
2. Seulgi is really kind. Seriously, she is one of the kindest and most polite idols.
3. I'm sorry, Seolgi… ㅜㅜ Fighting, Seolgi
4. Honestly, I think I would have done the same thing if I were the manager..
5. I think it is an abuse of power when that is what an administrator is supposed to do.
6. Seulgi is a really nice person, and there are few celebrities in the industry with a reputation like hers.
7. I understood it right away after reading the explanation. I hope Seolgi-nim wasn't hurt. ㅠㅠ
8. It seems that mental illness among Koreans is getting worse.
9. Your manager seems very considerate, but it seems like being an idol is very hard. You have to be careful in everything you do.
