Girl's Day's Minah opens up about her reaction to hate comments and haters

Girl
Girl's Day's Minah was featured on this week's Mnet's '4 Things Show' as the main star, and it was here where she revealed that she, too, gets scarred by haters and negative comments.


Minah said, "When I monitor (the shows I'm in), I read some of the comments (sigh). I'm the type to get hurt by hate comments. I read a comment that said, 'You have a fake smile', I just smile the way I smile but if someone says that I look fake, what can I do? it's not like I can somehow fix it. Hate comments, I keep thinking that I should ignore them, but then I'd think, 'Why are they like this? Did I harm them that much?'"


She then shared the time when a young student cursed at her while the idol was filming for her movie. She said, "There was a scene in the movie where I have to dance while walking across the railway and a student who looked like she/he was in middle school, said, 'Isn't that Minah, she looks like *bleep*'. But even as I heard it, I had to keep going and I really started to hate myself for it and even wondered 'is this something that I should be doing even if it means hearing comments like this?'"

When it came to hater comments and anti-fans, fellow member Yura and comedian Yoo Se Yoon had a much more apathetic solution to hater comments. Yura stated that hate comments are just something that idols have to deal with and that idols should set out with the mindset to convert antis into fans. Yoo Se Yoon nonchalantly brushed it off and said, "The kids who are just typing away on their keyboards and on their phones, that's just cute." 


Amber also defended Minah in regards to some criticisms she hears about her, saying, "People say Minah tries hard to be cute, but Minah is just cute. She looks cute so she is cute, so what is she supposed to do? Minah is cute, so if she wants to be cute then let her be cute, what's wrong with that?"
