super conflicting feelings as an Elvis: a thread
it's so sad and heartbreaking to see the group you love be heavily scrutinized in public, both for valid and invalid reasons. my heart goes out to all the members, and i am sincerely hoping and wishing for the best for all of them

i'm both mad and glad that this has become a public thing that everyone can just spit out what they have to say about AOA. mad because most of these are either just plain insensitive/hateful but also glad because something wrong was revealed, hence a chance to learn for everyone
mina needs help and healing, and her not being okay should not and should NEVER be taken against her. it's frustrating because as fans we really can't do much and it should be THOSE AROUND HER taking care of her and making sure she is okay and prevent her from further triggers
at this point, it would be really insensitive for A4A and FNC to post anything about the anniversary... but if the members are sure about the truth then there is nothing to fear, they just have to be grounded and careful as anything they say can really be triggering for mina rn
i'm not gonna question mina but i also won't stop believing in the other members. she has said her perspective about them, and in her current state it's possible to feel like everyone is against her, with the maknaes as bystanders and yuna and hyejeong not standing up to jimin
reminder that even though they're in the same group and presumably underwent the same training under FNC/jimin as leader they're still unique individuals with different emotional and mental capacities and tolerance level so we shouldn't take that difference against ANY of them
seolhyun was also cursed by JM and got so much hate from many people, and she's so strong for being able to say that she doesn't care what happens to her and is really sad about the whole situation. mina said that yuna really cared for her and they even met after mina left AOA
chanmi had depression too and her asking mina if she had any good memories, call it selfish, but if i was in a group who i considered family i would be extremely sad and hurt to know that one of us was suffering so much to the point that she can't even recall even one good memory
remember that hyejeong is her best friend and when they went to her house, she is looking out for her and even said to accept jimin's apology (and by accept this is what she meant)... but that kind of healing takes a long time, could be months or years https://twitter.com/ayochanmi/status/1291667510459133952
i may be a relatively new Elvis but for the life of me i just cannot think how the four of them can keep on working with jimin IF they knew that mina was suffering this much to the point of self harm and spiralling in public; not the maknaes or yuna and definitely not hyejeong
what i'm saying is that if they were to speak up the truth there will always be the risk for mina to be triggered by it and take it negatively with her current vulnerable state... hence the call from most of us to help her by LETTING HER STAY OFF SNS and rest and heal IN PRIVATE
IN A SAFE SPACE, be able to express herself without any concern for what the public has to say (especially the negative ones) and not for everyone to psychoanalyze her and the other members. this responsibility is not on the fans, but on her agency and on those CLOSE around her
mina's feelings against jimin, hsh, FNC, and AOA as a whole are valid, but that doesn't mean we want harm to actually befall to these people. it could be temporarily satisfying for mina to see their downfall, but i believe most of her healing would definitely not come out of that
what i would want the most is accountability and character development. let this be a lesson learned for everyone. fnc on better management, jimin on being a better person, and a4a on being more sensitive to others. y'all just sending hate and act like improvement ain't an option
and it shows. many kpop stans are just eager to spew shit for rts likes or whatever validation you get from doing that. if you got nothing nice or helpful to say just stfu and mind your own business. so non AOEs pls stop acting like you know it all and AOEs let's try not to fight
AOA are humans too, i've never put them on a pedestal but they've really helped me a lot, and as a fan their improvement as people is really not on me, but i'll be doing my best to support ALL of them in that aspect, keeping the happy memories but also learning from the bad ones
i'm happy about choa's comeback and that youkyung is in a better place rn too. i am also happy to be able to meet many amazing people in the fandom. for those who left, i respect you and i hope we can still be friends. to the ones staying, let's get through this together with AOA
so letâs celebrate the anniv respectfully today and be there for the girls and for each other
