S’pore K-pop Group Beaunite Disbanded & Apologized–& They even Received Death Threats

2017-12-12 , 5:29 pm

In case you’re unaware, a Singapore K-pop group recently announced their arrival to the world.

Which would have been cause for celebration (because K-pop idol yo), had their entrance not been slightly marred by a few Kpop fans.

Aside from being slammed for their lack of professionalism, they were also ridiculed for their names, and even their looks.

And to top it all off…

Death threats were apparently issued to them.

So what’s next?

Initially, Beaunite seemed to be handling it quite well, considering the sheer number of hate waves directed at them.

However, it seems that they have caved in.

A quick check on their Instagram page revealed that they have removed all pictures, including their debut video.

What’s left is a text post that conveyed their remorse and the fact that they have temporarily disbanded.

Here’s the post in full:

“Hello, this is former Beaunite.

We would like to sincerely apologise in regards to the recent event. Within the past few days, after the video went viral and seeing the thoughts of the public about what each and every one of you felt, we have come to realise our mistakes.

We are deeply sorry for the wrong usage of words and for upsetting especially dear fans of the Kpop community. We have taken the time to repent and have thought over and over again on how do we apologise and explain ourselves to the many questions that surfaced.

We have left the company who organised the initial audition. We felt unjust of them to not step up and lend a hand when things went out of proportion. In regards of the video upload, we are truly sorry for the lack of planning and proper scripting. We ourselves realised how poor the quality and the way we presented and introduced ourselves to the public is.

Henceforth we will go back to training longer, training harder to come back and present ourselves better as a K-pop cover group. We would like to say many thanks to those who gave words of encouragement and comfort and helped us along the journey of having to stay positive. Thank you again and also many apologies.

In regards to the death threats and spiteful words received, we have already reported each and every comment and message, be it through the official account or the members’ individual accounts. Any further hateful remarks will be reported as well without hesitation.

Thank you for taking the time to read our apology. We have never taken money from anyone nor did we created the merchs for sale.

Sincerely,

Former Beaunite

Assuming that you scrolled through the page because you’re a strict believer in TL;DR, here’s a quick summary of what happened.

They realised their mistake, and apologise for the way they presented themselves
They have left the company that initiated the original audition. During the whole blow-up, the company purportedly neglected to intervene as such.
They are not vacating the scene forever. According to the post, they will be undergoing training to become a more idealized group in the K-pop scene.
They have reported all the death threats and spiteful words received, and would not hesitate to report any future remarks.

Wishing them all the best

I don’t know about the others, but I have nothing against these girls.

To me, they are just doing what they like, and to receive death threats over something like this spells disbelief on my face.

So yeah, keep doing what you’re doing girls!

Because you know what they say: “A smooth sea never made a skilled sailor.”

Fighting!

Since you’re here, why not watch a video about an NTU student who went all out to impress his crush, only to end up in…tragedy? Here, watch it and do remember to share it (and also subscribe to Goody Feed YouTube channel)!
