SEE ALSO: Yoon Jong Shin departs South Korea, reflects on burnout and personal growth
It was no doubt these very same Chinese fans who once again proved their fierce loyalty to their favorite group, particularly Hyomin, by coming to her rescue when they saw that Korean netizens were leaving hate comments on an article about her recent photo shoot with 'Beauty+.'
Scrolling through the comments, it's pretty obvious that T-ara isn't as popular in Korea as they are in China. Some Korean netizens wrote, "So now she's taking her clothes off...." "T-ara's image is not good at all in Korea. These 'jjanggaes' (derogatory word Koreans use to call ethnic Chinese people) must have noticed that there are more negative comments than positive ones," and, "She took everything off but those fish net stockings yet you call that modest?" referring to the title of the original Korean article which had called her look a "modest sexy."
As though in retaliation, and as though they have been lying in wait for this moment, Chinese netizens swept the comment section with an endless wave of positive messages of support and love toward Hyomin. The fans' comments read, "tara fighting ! queens fighting!" "Hyomin solo fighting!" "Hyominn fighting?We are always behind your back," "C-QUEENS ATTACK THE KNET ANT'S AND PROTECT GODDESS HYOMIN," "Beautiful girl !!! Sexy girl !!! Only one Hyomin in the world!!!" and many, many more--over 13,000 comments to be exact.
Hyomin put a screenshot of the article onto Instagram in awe of the high number of comments, writing, "OMG 9599...."
