Instiz: All of the 4minute members unfollow Hyuna on Instagram

"Hul..."

"They only unfollowed Hyuna? They didn't unfollow other members too?"
- Yup
- I checked and they only unfollowed Hyuna ㅠㅠ

"What's going on..."

"Hul, did something happen?"

"Hul...? So was there something going on between the members..."

"Was there a reason for them to unfollow her???"

"I think there were some issues with their company rather than personal issues with Hyuna.. and maybe they're expressing that by unfollowing Hyuna ㅠㅠ why..."

"Were they just a business relationship?"
- But they were famous for being so close

"Hul the other four are still following each other... what's going on ㅠㅠ"

"Whatever the reason, they're going to get backlash if they act like this against one person. You can't make it obvious like this... it's what happened to T-ara."

"It wouldn't be an issue if they all unfollowed each other but only unfollowing Hyuna causes bad rumors ㅠㅠ"

"I personally don't understand celebrities who cause rumors by unfollowing Instagrams when they know that people are going to start noticing and talking.. did they HAVE to do it right now?.."

"I think it's the only form of expression the members have right now.. we haven't seen any articles with direct quotes from them since news of the disbandment. It looks like they don't have a place to talk."

"I think I would've unfollowed her too. The group was disbanded because it wasn't making an income and the company favored Hyuna by keeping her because she does bring in an income and for her to just say yes to that while the rest of us are being kicked out... doesn't matter how close you are at that point, she agreed to the disbandment of the group and I think she partly influenced the decision behind it too. What if she had actually took a stand against the disbandment?"

"They knew that unfollowing her at once would be controversial, especially with fans watching... They should've said something with words instead of acting like this.".

Let the pettiness begin.

is hyuna still following them? because she could've blocked them.
this is rly strange regardless.

[seulgibear.livejournal.com]

her following count is at 0 rn and someone in the nb comments mentioned it's been like that for a while

[caipirinhas.livejournal.com]

This bums me out, but I feel like Cube already dropped hints of issues between the members. Wasn't their statement something like - we're trying to renegotiate, but even if they re-sign, they won't be promoting as 4minute due to disagreements about the direction of the group?

[honeebs.livejournal.com]

oh well, idol life is a business they aren't all best friends or even friendly.
They clearly want other things for themselves and are at the point were they can voice it and continue.
Hyuna is a big girl she can handle it.

[benihime99.livejournal.com]

I feel like all this twitter, insta, facebook unfollowing business is so childish
I was actually having this discussion with a friend and she was all "I'm gonna unfollow him I don't want him in my life" and this way e's gonna know about it"

This is so high school

[haxoru.livejournal.com]

i live for this high school pettiness

[pisceanfelt.livejournal.com]

I choked on my sandwich scrolling through the comments and seeing this oh my god ajsjskdjqjdjdnwkdkw

[haxoru.livejournal.com]

i feel like they all had agreed previously on not renewing with cube, but then cube offered a nice contract to hyuna and she couldn't let go, so the members felt they were being backstabbed and are angry at her? i don't think they wanted to end the group

[demeulemeester.livejournal.com]

sounds plausible. people have been saying stuff like "of course hyuna will renew, she does well solo" but she could go to any company and still do well. 4minute all could have moved to a different company.

[welljustguess.livejournal.com]

exciting

[mylovebelt.livejournal.com]

SNS drama and unfollowing always seemed kind of weird to me. The only thing that's kind of :/ is that they apparently all did around the same time.
Did they have a group chat and all agreed? Lol

damn though all the petty stans are feeling the effects of that bad karma this year omg

[happydirections.livejournal.com]

[puerilebeauty5.livejournal.com]

I always thought the girl group from Pinnochio was inspired by 4minute.

[happydirections.livejournal.com]

[springsky.livejournal.com]

This is me right now. I don't understand any of this.

[slowitdownbaby.livejournal.com]

...And so it begins lol.
Are there any girl groups whose current members still follow past members on social media? Wonder Girls?? I think some of f(x) might have followed Sulli on Instagram before she deleted but I'm not sure.

[hurtmybones.livejournal.com]

following each other is such an inconsequential thing (like minzy's still following the other 3 on twitter but I doubt they'll ever interact again) and it's hilarious when some can't do even that lol. I know 9 muses do and more importantly some of them are vacationing with Minha rn

[gee.livejournal.com]

How do fans even notice this shit, I only have like 2 followers on all my SNS accounts but it takes me forever to notice if the count changes + figure out who it was lmao. But thanks for the drama, detectives.

[sehunly.livejournal.com]

is it bad for me to say that i'm not surprised because hyuna seems to be the breadwinner of the group and cube would definitely want to keep her?

[sayitisso.livejournal.com]

the truth is the truth, nothing bad in saying it

[anewtrilogy.livejournal.com]

I feel so bad for 4nias, this fandom now will never be peaceful again...say hello to hyuna stans vs ot4 stans vs ot5 stans fanwars

[missshallelujah.livejournal.com]

Companies only care about money so even if the other girls wanted to continue with the group it's understandable that Cube prefered Hyuna over 4Minute if she is more successful by herself and brings in more income for them. Obviosly it sucks for the others and their anger is justified because they probably feel like Hyuna backstabbed them.

Anyway, I'm so here for the pettiness

[racquelle2005.livejournal.com]

The thing is that hyuna doesn't really bring it more money. She's just cheaper. Both acts have their ups and downs with the single choices but overall 4minute sells better.

[demeulemeester.livejournal.com]

i just read that some of them deleted their photos w/ hyuna 👀 idk if it's true

[mem-mu.livejournal.com]

I read that too and went to check and they still have pictures with her up.

[torontok.livejournal.com]

Hmmm


Well I didn't see this coming.
#TeamHyuna at any rate

[bauci.livejournal.com]

lmao his expression

[iviih.livejournal.com]

I remember some fans used 4minute as example to hate on Miss A.

They said Hyuna was famous but she would never leave/break 4minute, because they were like ~sisters~, while Suzy success broke apart Miss A and they were just a work group not friends.

In the end, Hyuna stayed in CUBE, she made a realistic decision, but fans will say she betrayed 4minute, and will start to hate on her.

I always say this "amigos, amigos, negócios à parte" means in english "Business is business. / or Friends, Friends, business aside"

You just don't mix things up.

[aridnili.livejournal.com]

O carma não brinca. lol

[miyozari.livejournal.com]

6. [+395, -5] There was already an article about it. The other four wanted to renew but Sidus only wanted Hyuna. Cube is just a puppet company for Sidus right now and they make all of the decisions for them when it comes to income. Cube wanted to keep 4minute and the members wanted it too but Sidus had the final say. - from nb (http://netizenbuzz.blogspot.de/2016/06/cube-confirms-4minutes-disbandment-is.html)

[racquelle2005.livejournal.com]

Not every group can be like Destiny's child. I don't blame the other four for being salty. I havent followed 4minute since 2011 but I knew there was no way in hell that hyuna getting the spotlight while the rest of the members pretty much got the shaft for all these years wasn't going to have no consequences.

[kjc48.livejournal.com]

....DC isn't a good example lol

[ggumd.livejournal.com]

I stan op and their gif collection and staying on topic well idk hyuna's gotta look out for herself but then again it must sting for the others that she resigned instead of standing in solidarity with them since the company didn't want them

[haxoru.livejournal.com]

I stan op and their gif collection

[cosmicjam.livejournal.com]

This is sad if it's true but I really wouldn't be so surprised. I'm so curious about what's really happening behind closed doors especially since it was just Hyuna's birthday

[staaan.livejournal.com]

wasn't it already confirmed by cube that the other four members didn't renew? i keep seeing some ppl acting like it's still ambiguous

anyway this is suspicious as hell and i just wanna be a fly on the wall in this mess

[ggumd.livejournal.com]

apparently sidus who owns cube didn't want the other members to resign, so the other girls did want to but the company only wanted hyuna

[xlovexlessxtyx.livejournal.com]

What I'm gathering from all of this is that the other members of 4minute chose irrelevancy. Not that I'm a Hyuna stan or anything (Roll Deep is her first solo song I actually enjoyed) but why not continue to move forward together instead of apart? Y'all could've left Cube at a UNIT and signed with a better agency.


Then again for all we know the departed members may come back as 4minute on a new label. Who knows. I wish them all the best. I still want Jiyoon to have some solo music. Her final track from Unpretty Rapstar spoiled me.
