Producer Ryan Jhun was chastised for using a pejorative word about girl groups

On social media, producer Ryan Jhun was chastised for using derogatory terms about women.

The DC Gallery is known for being critical of female idols and spreading stories about girl groups, and one of Ryan Jhun’s remarks on the site has gotten a lot of attention. “Boj-dols seem to do well,” he said, according to reports. “Boj-dol” is a pejorative word for female idols, and it alludes to an offensive slang for vagina.

Though the producer first claimed the problem was caused by a mistake, he has now clarified his viewpoint and apologized to fans.

That's a bad word, I didn't know and The word was still written in that article, and just this morning, our production team also searched and told us what it meant. I also found and deleted the posts, and I will write carefully one by one in the future.sorry fans & thank you.
