A person claiming to be a former Blockberry Creative employee writes a string of tweets exposing the company for their mistreatment of employees & artists

A person claiming to be a former Blockberry Creative employee recently wrote a string of tweets, exposing the company for their mistreatment of employees and their artists, following Blockberry Creative'sannouncement of Chuu's expulsion from LOONA.

On November 25, an anonymous person claiming to be a former employee at Blockberry Creative took to Twitter to write a string of tweets, exposing Blockberry Creative for their abusive nature toward not only their artists, but also toward their staff members and employees as well. Using the hashtags 'WeStandWithCHUU''ThankYouChuu', and 'WeLoveYouChuu', the alleged former employee explained how Blockberry Creative would frequently force the LOONA members to perform through their illness to the point where the members would vomit. 

In addition, the tweets described several instances of when the abusive nature of the company would pressure employees to work overtime, where it even hindered their ability to properly send off a family member who had passed. The tweets explained that contrary to Blockberry Creative's claims that Chuu had been kicked out from LOONA due to her abusive behavior toward staff members, it was the company who was abusive toward the trainees, artists, and employees. 

Here are some tweets written by the alleged former employee:

"...the company has forced the girls to perform throughout illness, to the point of constant vomiting"

"The staff are forced to work long hours and yet throughout that nobody had ever got the conscience to help the artists."

"Racism in the company is serious"

"Abuse? Bullsh*t. Remember when the male staff would go to work night drunk? When he lashed and screamed at the young trainees. when the companies finances failed, when they blamed the artists to their faces. Sick. YOU ARE THE ABUSE."

"I will always have so much respect for Loona throughout what they have been through. The love and passion for Orbit, I don't want to make them sound like they are always in a bad time, but they along with many others are VICTIMS."

"Constant. Abuse. Never a break. EVER."

"On the day of the funeral, they manipulated the female staff into working extra- So that she was late to her OWN DECEASED SISTERS FUNERAL.."

'WeStandWithCHUU'

'ThankYouChuu'
'WeLoveYouChuu'

The fact that Blockberry are prepared to lie about Chuu rather than simply make a neutral “parting of ways and good luck” style message sort of tells you a lot about the situation. It’s been a long time coming since the lawsuits were filed. They’ve really shot themselves in the foot. Everyone is calling them out on the clearly false statements

As much as I'd like to believe BBC are being exposed literally anyone can create an anonymous Twitter account and in 30 mins write this. They didn't show a blurry company ID or anything usual leakers show. Remember all the school year books during bullying scandals?

So going to take this with a truckload of salt, even if it sounds real. Could very easily be a random fan or just someone looking for attention.

I give a lot more credit to the named employees who have already given their comments in public supporting Chuu.
