ITZY Lia Defended by MIDZYs After Group Called 'More Talented' Without Idol
Earlier on November 17, JYP Entertainment announced member Lia's indefinite hiatus due to anxiety disorder. The agency also added that Lia would not be able to participate in ITZY's upcoming album in January 2024 and world tour.
MIDZYs were enraged with the harsh remarks and expressed their frustration over the negative context. They also called out these commenters' decision to slander Lia despite knowing the idol was currently undergoing hiatus due to mental health reasons.
- "These comments are horrible. Let's not do too much on the best vocalist in the group. Everyone wants more idols who can sing and then say s**t like this."
- "Lia was taking a break 1000 percent due to mental health then you have people posting stuff like this and people actually agreeing with it."
- "Why do this when you know it's just the unjustified hater bone in you talking bad about a girl who clearly worked hard to catch up with four good dancers in the group and is a pivotal member since she's the main vocalist?"
