I didn't want to see the comments and it was getting messy, so I decided to delete the post [about Jun Tae Soo] but then people were saying I was being insincere and interpreting it their own way..." 

Cho Min Ah continued by writing, "Instead of using energy to hate on me, people should be focusing on their own lives." 

Evidently, she was very surprised herself to hear the news about Jun Tae Soo's passing. Netizens criticized her quite harshly for her supposed lack of sympathy after seeing the post for her late friend.
