Controversies have aroused since Kepler’s fandom ridiculed a member of this girl group, which was formed through Mnet’s ‘Girls Planet 999: The Girls Saga”.
Recently, fans of the girl group debuting after the final episode of ‘Girls Planet 999‘ opened Space Talk on Twitter and chatted about the group’s lineup. However, during the Space discussion, they kept on criticizing Huening Bahiyyih.
They said, “What is Huening Bahiyyih’s position in the group? She has nothing to do here”. A fan even said, “Maybe her position is being cursed”. Others continued to give harsh words for this idol girl, “I think I would be happy even if she got isolated in the group.”, “Being bullied is not enough, is it?”. Then, a Twitter user revealed the content of this Space Talk and criticized those fans, saying, “No matter how much you hate that member, don’t you think your curses towards a minor member have crossed the line? Anyone can hear this Space Talk tho.”
Born in 2004, 17-year-old trainee Huening Bahiyyih attracted great attention when she was revealed to be TXT Huening Kai‘s younger sister. She made it to the debut group at 2nd place. Accordingly, Kepler’s fans voiced against the final result, saying Huening Bahiyyih was able to make her debut thanks to her brother’s fame. In fact, it’s really easy to find many Kepler fans on Twitter expressed that they would support 8 members except for Huening Bahiyyih.
However, the disunity of this girl group’s fandom has been raised to a much more serious level since fans are rejecting a specific member. Even fans who support all 9 girls would not be considered parts of the fandom. Therefore, they may be restricted from joining supporting activities for Kepler in the future.Moreover, it is also unknown whether Huening Bahiyyih will be able to withstand this criticism storm.
Meanwhile, Kepler, which was formed on October 22nd, is a girl group consisting of 9 members from Korea, China, and Japan. This group will last for 2.5 years.
