Mnet is being criticized by netizens for "evil editing" Chaeyeon in their "Queendom Puzzle" trailer, while excluding LABOM Haein at the same time.
Here's what happened.
Mnet Under Fire For 'Evil Editing' Lee Chaeyeon, Excluding LABOUM Haein in 'Queendom Puzzle' Trailer
On June 2, Mnet uploaded the first look of their upcoming spin-off "Queendom Puzzle," raising the anticipation from fans.
Netizens were hyped up during the trailer's showcase, as it featured a glimpse of what's to come. The trailer sets the tone of the program, which briefly showed the performance videos of the 26 contestants, comprised of two songs namely "SNAP" and "Charismatic."
However, one particular scene didn't make netizens happy. During the trailer, the contestants are undergoing a certain "mission battle," where the show's MC Taeyeon indicated that all contestants will take part in voting to decide if the stage is "Better? or worse?"
Mnet stated, "Lee Chaeyeon and Haein have stepped down from 'Queendom Puzzle' for personal reasons. Nothing has been decided yet regarding the upcoming program's additional participants."
