Her fans are still frustrated at her being neglected by her own holding company, Starship entertainment, despite being the main vocalist, and also the member, with the best singing skills of Ive liju was said to never be given the opportunity to showcase her ability in Ives.
Two latest songs liju was among the members getting the least lion and was even not assigned to sing the chorus of the afterlife, while all other members sang at least once this makes netizens raise questions about whether Starship entertainment treated their girls according to their reputation. Not only that fans also pointed out that liju was also discriminated against regarding the ending fairy. After several weeks of promoting like, I have showcased their individual charms and stunning visuals through their solo ending fairy videos. However, there was definitely a huge difference in the number of each member's ending fairy, while the two most famous girls, young and Eugene - both got seven ending fairies sceneso each got two to four liju was the only one who did not have any solo ending fairy. This is not the first time Lee Jo, was left out and poorly treated.
Previously fans were irritated to find out that liju was the only one who did not have a solo photo shoot following the release of their new single, while one young Esau shot for Mary Claire Eugene had pictures with W Korea. Reyi appeared in Arena home and Gull worked with them. L, lija did not have an individual photo shoot to promote herself, especially when Starship entertainment has enough capability to make a deal for their Idol. It is worth mentioning that when she first debuted liju was among the members who were pushed the most by Starship, thanks to her sweet, vocals and a Dalek appearance, which is said to be no less impressive than janwan Yang. Therefore, the fact that liju has not been favored as much lately raises suspicions among netizens that it is legia's weight gain that has made Starship no longer interested in promoting Her Image but instead focusing on other members who were believed to have more eye-catching appearance at That point many fans were outraged, saying that if this was true, then Starship would be so trashy as they discriminate between the girls based on their looks.

What is worth mentioning is that SBS did not fail to upload the individual photos of the three other members and Karina and winter even had two separate posts. However, this is not the last time Giselle was left out of a show that espa participated in the manager of NBC Giselle was confusingly absent from the thumbnail of the episode on NBC's YouTube fans also pointed out that giselle's scene was even edited out of some other Shows such as her Talent showing part on weekly Idol or her cover part and knowing Bros, even when espa has debuted for almost two years, the unfair treatment of Giselle shows no sign of stopping. If not, it is getting worse, as the female Idol is now even discriminated against by some brands that her group is currently. The Ambassador. In particular, MLB was once Under Fire for allegedly mistreating Giselle when failing to include the female Idol in their styling guide.
They even misspelled her name writing g-i-e-s-e-l-l-e Giselle, instead of Giselle and didn't even upload, her individual photo as they did to other members when shooting for medihil cell only had an indoor photo shoot and didn't hold the Brand's products. That was a total contrast to the other. Three members who shooted outside with a specific concept and products in their hands, even Clio of Japan, the country where Giselle came from also left to the female Idol out in their campaign as giselle's image, was nowhere to be found in both Cleo Japan's Twitter or Instagram. Not only that Giselle was even invisible in almost all S, Plus promoting videos and the advertisement for Choppa and internal return. Giselle scenes lasted only one second, and she was even excluded from the videos for Tams.

Although esp's official Twitter announced Giselle's playlist on September 1, it was impossible to find your playlist on the official account number 4 Utah NCT 127 looks like SM is involved in a lot of foreign Idols, and mistreatment cases because Utah, the Japanese member of NCT is also a Victim of this, although Utah's career as a soloist is on the rise with numerous important activities, SM appears indifferent and fails to promote them to be specific, Utah has had a full busy year of individual activities in Japan, including multiple high-profile magazines, shoots shows brand collaborations and More there was a collaboration between Utah and craft boss and Tom Ford, plus.

The male Idol did not even get a highlight for himself, no matter how big his gigs are. Additionally, on NCT 127's comeback with sticker SM was again slammed for erasing Utah out of their promotional materials, while all other members have beautiful solo thumbnails for themselves. Only the thumbnail of Utah did not focus on his face, but his legs and the male Idol were seemingly omitted from face cams and ending fairy scenes.

Again, specifically near the end of the concert, all NCT's members were raising their lights, sticks, and waving goodbye to the audience, and while each member received a close-up, shot, Utah didn't and just stood quietly on his own.
