RIIZE’s Fans Criticized For “Ridiculous Hate” Towards Ex-SM Entertainment Trainee Ko Eun
Ko Eun is one of the most famous ex-trainees of SM Entertainment. She was a part of SM Rookies, but eventually failed to make her debut with the company. She now lives as a regular college student.
Due to her SM Rookies fame, she has quite a large number of followers on her personal Instagram. As many fans are still curious about her, she often hosts Q&As through her social media. As she was a longtime trainee who trained with members from NCT, Red Velvet, aespa, and more, many wanted to know if she was close to anyone from RIIZE.
Netizen: “Did you train together with RIIZE too?”
Ko Eun: “Just with Sungchannie and Eunseokie.”
It seems like some fans of RIIZE had issues with the familiar way she referred to the boys. Rather than addressing them by their full names or with formalities, she referred to them casually. They took to an anonymous comment platform to discuss the matter.
Fan A: “Her training period overlapped with Sungchan and Eunseok? Sigh.”
Fan B: “Well, the girlie who asked is hilarious, and the fact that she replied that that is too LOL.”
Fan C: “Did the male trainees who entered the company in 2016 train together with girls? Would they be close?”
Fan D: “How old is Ko Eun?”
Fan E: “AFAIK she entered the company around 2012 or 2013.”
Fan F: “‘Sungchannie and Eunseokie? BRIIZE can be quite mentally ill so we’re rather sensitive about her referring to them without last names. Did she go to the fancon?”
Fan G: “She said her training period only overlapped with Sungchan and Eunseok.”
Fan H: “Wow, this is kinda fascinating. Who knew she would even reply like that.”
Fan I: “She was like, ‘only with Sungchannie and Eunseokie~~”
Fan J: “LOL it’s so funny how she referred to them without their last names.”
Other BRIIZE have called out these fans for their ridiculous behavior.

사회생활 안 해보셨나
성 붙이는 게 더 친해 보이는데
공개 연습생이었는데 데뷔 못한 애를 그렇게 까고 싶음? https://t.co/T6vuxAjmlN— 왕왕이 (@gimchps) June 2, 2024
Have they not gone out in society before? Referring to someone with their last name actually makes you look closer. Do y’all really want to hate on someone who didn’t manage to debut despite being an announced trainee?

Ko Eun was a trainee for an extremely long time in SM Entertainment, dedicating her youth to the company. It is no surprise that she remains close to quite a few trainees, including those that have debuted!
