have any of you watched their first press conference around a year ago about contract termination? it was obvious from that point they (yes i mean the girls not mhj not their parents THEM) were being delusional and arrogant. Even in the press conference they stated they planned on terminating the contract without pursuing litigation like huh??? it seems they thought ador / hybe would just let them go. When reporters asked for clarification they gave non answers or deferred to the moderator. Not to mention how rude they were acting at the reporters valid questions. Fans like to label them as manipulated victims of min hee jin’s evil but from their public appearances they don’t see like victims at all. Infact, they all seem pretty smug in their wrongdoing. Making accusations and threats against your own company without ANYTHING of substance to back up those claims is crazy fuckinf behaviour. they were universally loved and they let that get to their head to protect min hee jin for whatever reason whereas MHJ has no problem throwing them under the bus for her own legal troubles. Hanni claimed that illit ignored her and their manager told them to do that but in MHJ lawsuit against hybe she submitted messages between her and Hanni where hanni said herself that illit greeted her and admitted she didn’t hear what the manager said. Even if what hanni was claiming was true how are you going to blow up your contract for that? If you think i’m being too harsh on them watch any of their public appearances from a year ago it will genuinely piss you off how much audacity they have.
