Song Jieun literally ruined this group. She had zero plans to promote SKZ as a group, she showed everyone that at the 2024 stake holders meeting. She created a nepotistic division that benefited her and her friends, including hiring stylist who was fired by another agency and in retaliation created a smear campaign so bad for another idol the idol had to sue for defamation. Song Jieun won SOLO awards off of SKZs back while not even posting about awards the group and the (majority of) members themselves were nominated for. Trucks sent a year ago in December by kstays called out the mismanagement of this group and how it was impacting domestic sales which they need btw. They need a strong domestic fanbase. Every time stays called out her mismanagement we were called akgaes and our concerns were labeled hate. The concerns THEN are the same concerns NOW Except a year late and now we need to come to terms with the fact that SKZ as a group will not come out of enlistment as a group, not like they are now. That’s gone. We’re too late to fix it. They were the third biggest kpop group in the world. Song Jieun fucked it up just like she fucked up her last group where she did exactly this. Kstays tried to fix this a year ago as a last resort bc they saw their fanbase being decimated and knew once SKZ loses their domestic support financers, investors, and agency support follows. So does their negotiating power. Regardless of how great we think our members are, to all of those people the members are simply temporary workers in their company. I just wish stays had listened to valid criticisms about Song Jieun two years ago, even last year, bc we GOT exactly what our collective effort earned us, nothing. Now it’s too late and SKZ are not coming back as a group to a solid fanbase and negotiating power.
