Naver: Yubin's father passes away... "deep sorrow"

[+4,327, -34] Rest in peace

[+2,617, -38] Yubin... it will be difficult but you will get through it

[+2,454, -37] Rest in peace. Yubin, cheer up...

[+1,722, -34] Rest in peace

[+464, -19] I was surprised at the news because he used to be in the same English class as my father. He attended the lessons dutifully as a hobby even though he was pretty good at English. Thank you for the signed Wonder Girls CD. Yubin's father is very kind and humble. Yubin, cheer up...

[+4,053, -179] To be honest, Sulli is more selfish than Sunye

[+3,526, -80] Sunye is rather amazing to be able to give up everything. Wonder Girls are so kind-hearted...

[+2,673, -87] Sunye is really loyal to even attend Wonder Girls comeback stage and support them

[+2,400, -55] It's interesting how she went from an idol to a mother... time flies

[+2,194, -47] I hope that you are happy... Wonder Girls fighting

[+307, -12] Sohee also bought ice-cream and coffee to show her support. If only they can come back to Wonder Girls like Sunmi, that would be great.

[+289, -11] They are friends and also family.

Compilation of reactions from various community:
- Why...
- What will that Yubin do now
- Then... start... planning... now
- Cheated my feelings
- I do not want to hear this!!!
- Hull ㅠㅠ
- Time to move on. The ones who have clear idea of what they want will do better e.g. Sohee, Sunye, Sunmi
- Besides Sunye and Yeeun, the others can't sing
- At least they are not disbanding, there is still hope
- I miss Wonder Girls... I want to hear their songs...
- It is not wise to recruit a new member and Sohee is going to be busy with her new movie soon... this is expected
- Without their visual (Sohee) and best singer (Sunye), they can't really function well... don't tell me about the other members being as pretty or sing as well... you won't understand the public who see the group lost their two most iconic members.
- I miss Wonder Girls!!!
- Disappointed with JYP

Follow-up: Yubin's instagram clarification

I have been receiving several questions on why some Korean fans seemed to be mad at Yubin even after her clarification.

After fans left supportive comments on Yubin's IG, Yubin made the following clarification:
I'm sorry if I have worried you, but I was just uploading a song that I recommend. Please do not misunderstand.

However, some fans refuted that it is not purely her photo that made fans worried, but because of her tag '#내얘긴줄' (#talkingaboutme).

- Putting the tag #talkingaboutme will no doubt make fans worry
- You shouldn't have put the tag then
- Shouldn't you have expected fans' reactions when you put that tag --
- You mislead your followers and now telling us it's a joke and not to misunderstand? So annoying.
- The tag #talkingaboutme is the main cause of concern

Bestiz: Concerns for Yubin grow

- The lack of talent is idol's woe. went on some pathetic beauty show program and nothing else... at least yeeun has the ability to go solo
- Why does Yubin have to vent her frustration on instagram in public
- If only JYP did not bring them to America
- If you are not getting anything at JYPE, why did you renew your contract? You should have left and sign under another company like Sohee.
- Hyerim, Yeeun and Yubin... poor them
- She was the one who renewed her contract... but does not have any solo activities... I wish she improved on her skills or do something being debuting as a solo.
- Yubin is charming. I hope to see her activity soon.
- Why did you renew then?
- Without Sohee and Sunye, this group can't function.

Fans fretting over Yubin's Instagram post

On 24 March, Yubin posted on her instagram a portion of the lyrics from Hyukoh's 'Wiing Wiing'. The lyrics are as follows:

Jobless and idling around
I look so pathetic
I feel so sorry
Wiing Wiing (sound of insect) 
Even the mayfly seems to be mocking the pathetic me

Seeing this set of lyrics, Wonderfuls started leaving many comments on her instagram and official WG cafe, as well as created several threads about her on WG DC gallery.

Instagram
- Onnie. I will always be rooting for you. That's the best I can do. I can't comfort you up close, so these are the words to say to comfort you and help you find strength. Whatever happens, I will be there. There are many people who are like me. I hope you think of the fans and find strength. Onnie is always so bright and sparkling to me. Just like a star. I hope the day we meet again is not far away. I miss you a lot.
- Wonderful will be cheering you on!!!
- No matter what happened, I will always support onnie!!


WG Official Cafe
- Yubin onnie saranghae. I will always support you as well as Sunye, Sohee, Yeeun, Sunmi and Lim. I love onnie an awful lot!
- I was stunned to see her post. Shedding tears... ah... I do not know why things turned out this way
- What do you mean being idle... Yubin featured in a foreign rookie's song and helped it to first place on one of the Billboard charts. Compared to her peers, Yubin ran straight ahead without thinking twice... now that it seems exhausting, I will continue to cheer for you! Let your bright personality shine through!!! Do not post such things... ㅠㅠㅠ it hurts... ㅠㅠㅠ
- What's wrong Yub...
- ㅠㅠㅠ

WG DC gallery
- Kim Yubin is a real disappointment. Instead of whining and wallowing in self-pity, she should work on self-development. Tsk, almost 30 years old.
- It seriously sucks to come to read posts on WG DCgallery nowadays. When Sunmi was home-sicked and chose to go on hiatus, you guys said she betrayed the group. You should know how hard it was for her to be working far away from home. When Sunye announced her marriage and became a mother, I can understand her because of her tough childhood. I know it is a big impact to the group yet I tried to be understanding. However, the people here couldn't, and cursed her. To me, her going to Haiti is not a bad thing either. As for Sohee, we all know how much she wanted to act. When Sunmi came out as a female solo and won first place, I was happy. I was also glad that Yeeun came out as solo. However, when I saw the reactions here, I was disappointed. The fans here called the members rude names like betrayal-mi (Sunmi), Min Jesus (Sunye) and So-ahjumma (Sohee). Because of this, the fandom split. Sohee fans stayed at Sohee DC gallery and the same goes for Sunmi fans. Sunye fans totally left the gallery. Yubin and Lim fans stayed quiet and low-profile. The WG DC gallery has become Yeeun DC galley and other members' antis.
- Where is her talent?

[+9, 0] Just had a bath. And here's a certification shot of pretty Yubin.

Instiz: A rumour about Wonder Girls comeback

Source: http://www.instiz.net/pt?no=2613123&page=1

TN: Since there are many such rumours around the K-sites, I have been contemplating whether to post this particular one, which has a higher view count. Bear in mind that the stuff mentioned in this instiz post are not verified, so take it with a pinch of salt.

They were supposed to make a comeback in October, but due to Sunye and Sohee schedule conflict, it was delayed till next year. They are still discussing whether it is to be a 4-member or a whole group comeback. As Sunmi has her own project, JYP is currently dismissing any talks about a Wonder Girls comeback.
This rumour came from a fan who claimed to have links to JYPE and heard it from JYP, it is up to you to believe.

[+572, -38] Is Wonder Girls still a group or not? She suffered a lot when she joined Wonder Girls
[+501, -9] Hyerim, long time no see
[+389, -23] I miss Wonder Girls ㅠ
[+333, -26] Cute ♥ ㅠㅠ I want to see a Wonder Girls domestic comeback
[+314 -24] I really miss Wonder Girls
[+54, -5] If she didn't join Wonder Girls she wouldn't have been scolded and would have debuted in another group. Pity her, now that she joined, she has no activities.
[+55, -7] She could have debuted under Miss A if she didn't join Wonder Girls... a kind kid, but unlucky.

Disclaimer

Have shifted to this new blog from http://wonreactions.tumblr.com/

Since more and more sites are popping up doing translations of Korean netizens comments, I thought I should do one for Wonder Girls. Before reading my translations, please take note of the following:

1. I select articles which have a size-able amount of comments (at least 15) to translate

2. Articles that have comments already translated by other sites will not be translated here

3. I will translate both positive and negative comments. Since this is a tumblr to inform fans of the general Korean netizens sentiments, both types of comments will be translated.

4. I mainly translate from these websites: naver, nate/pann, bestiz, instiz.

5. Do not perceive the comments here as the sensitiments of most Koreans. They are just netizens, sometimes trolls/antis. Increasingly, there are international fans who also add on to those comments (in Korean).
