Girls’ Generation Taeyeon’s Reason For Not Attending “SMTOWN Live In Seoul” Infuriates Fans

Fans are so disappointed.

SM Entertainment has been receiving much backlash recently for its lack of effort for its artists.

Previously, Girls’ Generation’s Taeyeon revealed that she would not attend the SM Town Live in Seoul concert as she was not on good terms with the company.

However, the company belatedly announced the news to fans, causing much criticism from fans.

“I wanted to make a grand stage and was motivated to prepare two or three songs. I told the company and waited…but to sum it up, they didn’t prepare anything so I ended up not being able to do anything.

It’s not because I wasn’t motivated or didn’t want to do it…I just wanted to do my best as I am genuine regarding my performance…but they did not help me, so I am seriously thinking about what has happened here. I am writing this here so that there are no misunderstandings with SONEs.”

Fan: Maybe the company had something going on that put them in a difficult situation?

Taeyeon: I guess it could put them in a difficult situation since the difficult situation is that they forgot about it…

Taeyeon: I’ll try to make better choices and do my best in everything. As someone said, the company may have had its own circumstances, but there are also employees working hard in places we can’t see, so please don’t criticize too much. I don’t think everyone needs to take responsibility for a specific person. It seems like I talked too much, as I was upset, but I will repay you with good performances.

Meanwhile, Red Velvet’s Wendy also recently slammed SM for belatedly announcing her absence.
