Fans start a petition demanding the return of former (G)I-DLE member Soojin

Posted by jeonlisa513303 pts Saturday, August 14, 2021



A petition is currently gaining attention with over 58,000 signatures and demanding justice for (G)I-DLE member Soojin.
This was following Cube Entertainment's official statement announcing Soojin's departure from the girl group on August 14, which was 6 months after her alleged bullying controversy.

The petition states: "WE WANT OUR SOOJIN BACK!! She does NOT deserve ANY of this. Even IF (we didn’t even get an explanation) she made mistakes, kicking her out of (G)I-DLE is NOT a solution! (G)I-DLE is and forever will be 6. BRING SOOJIN BACK, CUBE! GIVE US AN EXPLANATION!! JUSTICE FOR SOOJIN!!

Soojin was FALSELY accused of school bullying (which was YEARS ago) and had a fight with her friend when she was 12. Isn’t it ridiculous to kick somebody out of the group because of that?? We got no explanation, Soojin didn’t even get to speak up about it!! JUSTICE FOR SOOJIN!!"

Fans hope that after seeing this petition, Cube will reconsider adding Soojin back to the group. However, there haven't been many cases where a former member has re-joined after being kicked out despite many fan-signing petitions. One of the most famous cases is when former Pentagon (Cube boy group) member E'dawn being kicked out after dating label-mate HyunA back in  August of 2018.

The petition can be viewed here via this link.

While I'm sad it ended for her the way it did, and wish fans would have forgiven her and she could have continued in the group, let's be realistic, that's never going to happen. What's done is done. This petition is a fool's errand. And frankly, it looks like it's written by a 12-year-old.
