In response to the negative feedback, Seo In Young fired back with an explanation from her point of view. Her message posted on Instagram reads as follows:
"I'm not the type to worry about this kind of stuff, and only one side could've been shown since it's broadcast and there's editing. I wasn't there to just talk about myself, so I was going to coolly let it go, but I'm leaving this post since we each have different sides.
As you may know, I don't like being called 'ssenunni', and I'm also not the type to be affected by other people's criticism. Also, I saw that people are calling me unmannerly, but my peers and sunbaenims know that I'm not that kind of person.
Furthermore, I consider manners in sunbae-hoobae relationships of great importance. When I saw Brown Eyed Girls at the time, they were nothing more or less than another hoobae. Back then, they came and greeted me in a very nice way and that seemed very cute to me, so that's why I expressed it like that [using informal speech to call Narsha cute] and afterwards we've become close through 'Heroes.'
Anyway, the important part is that the reason I reacted saying 'You were pissed? You?' was because back then Ga In was just a very cute, nice hoobae, but she really startled me by saying she was pissed at her sunbae and talked about it even though it wasn't herself [who was 'mistreated']. I wasn't able to accommodate with Ga In's style as she was different before and during the recording.
Sunbae-hoobaes exist here, and there are rules. That's why I strictly respect my sunbaenims. If you enjoy talking about this and that then go ahead, but I hope you judge the situation by viewing the whole picture. As of now, I just want to protect the people I love. And treat older hoobaes with respect even though they're rude? Act like a sunbae? What kind of theory is that?"
