I may not have known him personally but as a society we have to acknowledge that we have lost a member and realize our mistakes to do better.
The kpop industry runs on what the consumers (fans) want but it's only the korean ones they care about, the international ones matter very little. If the kpop industry sees these requests and concerns for the idols, obviously they'll take it into consideration since fans wouldn't want to watch their idols in this condition and stop consuming from the companies.
The problem is, international fans are the ones who do this a lot and bring it to light but what we say or do doesn't matter to them, all they care about is the consumers in Korea.
Unfortunately, there's nothing we can do except encourage and help K-fams aknowledge what's going on and how they can help bring justice.
This isn't just something about dance, music and entertainment, this is about young people who want to follow their dreams but can't because of companies treating their idols poorly. THIS IS ABOUT PEOPLE'S LIVES.
But this is something that'll take a long time to accomplish. This world is unfair and because of it, we lost an innocent young man.
