• Ah, Minji's parents must have been really devastated. It's so heartbreaking.

• At that time, asking a trainee whose debut was uncertain to give up on their studies was crossing the line... It was a matter of life and death and it wasn't like they were confirming her debut.

• So you pressured her into dropping out of middle school and then tried to ruin her debut in a girl group? Wow, they have no conscienceㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

• Heol, that's too much. Even if a kid says they want to drop out, you have to stop them. Why are you doing that when she actually wants to go?

• Wow, this is seriously so crazy, I'm going crazy

• How can people who make students give up their studies without even giving them the assurance that they will debut be proper adults?

• She hasn't even debuted yet, so encouraging her to drop out is really trash. Why are they keeping the trainees around then?

• And they're saying that they gave birth to NewJeans? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ If she doesn't debut, what's she going to do with her life? They wanted her to quit and her debut was not even certain. F**kㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I even saw how she went and found out about the advanced entrance exams herself, do these bastards really want to keep media playing?

• They can't even guarantee that she'll debut and they're making irresponsible decisions for them to not go to school, these pieces of trash.

• Even if they can't be idols, at least let them graduate from high school. It's not like everyone who debuts becomes successful and why do they have to drop out of school when they won't be responsible for their lives after that? It was weird to see some idols sometimes not even finish middle school. How important is it in life to make friends at school who are not celebrities and to keep in touch with them later on?

• Minji is really incredible...

• I hope they don't make students give up on their studies. Seriously, going to school is so important.

• It's before their debut so you should go to school and practice. Why are they telling her to drop out when they're not going to take responsibility for the rest of her life? It's ridiculous.

• It's not that she just opened her eyes, she just didn't sleep ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

• Are they crazy to tell a trainee who hasn't even debuted yet and whose debut is uncertain not to go to high school?

• They were telling her to quit school when they won't even take responsibility. What a crazy company. How can someone like this run an entertainment company with minors? This child abuse is crazy.

• If you drop out and don't debut, who will take responsibility? Why are they shaking up other people's lives?

• I really feel bad for Minji ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ I wonder just how hard it must have been for her...

[theqoo - hot] NewJeans Minji's past that can be clearly seen from her messages on Phoning

M: During my student days...

M: I used to go there at 4am and sit there ㅋㅋ

M: I'm going crazy ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

M: _No maybe maybe

M: 4am I opened my eyes

M: And I went straight to school

Minji also had a great passion for her studies. At the time, she felt pressured to 'not be able to go to school if she fell asleep', so she just washed up and went straight to school. It was not uncommon for her to sit in front of the school gate since 6 AM to wait for the gate to open.

 

However, Source Music encouraged Minji to give up her studies. Minji’s mother explained, “Before (Minji) entered high school, I heard ridiculous things like it would be hard to train at a regular high school and not go because it would be difficult to balance with training.” Minji, who had a hard time with Source Music’s training method, said she found going to school enjoyable.

• She really is a girl who can do anything

• Even now when I look at Minji, I can see the intelligence in her eyes. Her eyes are clear and bright. She must have worked hard.

• Since she's smart I feel like she would have done well if she had continued studying

• This is so sad but I'm so proud of her. She really did your best

• I'm seriously crying...ㅠㅠ Even while doing these promotions, they never showed that they were having a hard time ㅋㅋㅋ Ah seriously Minjiㅜㅜㅜ She's much younger than me but she's a strong kid who's more mature than meㅠㅠㅠㅠ

• Her mental strength is amazing 

• It seems like she had a hard time going to school, barely getting any sleep. She must of been afraid of not being able to go to school after practicing late at night

• It really hurts my heart ㅠ

• Wow, the fans must be really surprised..

• Everyone works hard but Minji really worked hard

• If you watch Minji, you'll know how passionate, smart, and how hard working she is... She really did her best, our Minji fighting!!

• Minji is so cool pat pat pat ㅠㅠ She's still a baby

• NewJeans really seems to be soft on the outside but tough on the inside. She really held on strong and she never showed any signs of being tired. Even now, they're being bullied like this but they don't even cry once. It's heartbreaking.

• Even the way she speaks and acts seems like she has the stability of an older sister

• Minji you really worked hard, you seriously worked hard ㅠㅠ You really lived diligently, you're amazing ㅠㅠㅠ

• It's really sad that these adults are pressuring kids who want to go to school, to make choices about an uncertain future

• This is really heartbreaking.. How anxious she must have been at such a young age, always exhausted and nervous...

• My heart aches when I think about how she must have felt more uncertain about the future and had to act like that.

• This is the first time I've heard a student waiting at school for the school gate like that at dawn... She's really amazing.

• Minji, you've lived a very honest life. Her personality seems to be easygoing and chill. She must have had many difficult moments at such a young age. But seeing her grow up brightly and resolutely, I think she has a strong inner self. She's incredible, I want to see her again. Fighting, NewJeans!!

• Ah Minji...ㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠㅠ I can't even imagine how much you must have suffered.....

• She also said that the one-hour bus ride to school was her healing time...

• At that age you usually sleep a lot so it must have been harder

• The kids didn't show that they had a hard time at all, I don't know what these men are doing they should be embarrassed.

• Minji is so mature that I feel even more sorry for her ㅠㅠ

• If you just look at her appearance, she looks like she's never had any hardships but at such a young age...

• I heard a few stories about Minji going to school early but f*ck...
