Popular Female Idol Faces Viral Accusations Of Discriminating Against Male Fans
Cosmic Girls‘ Bona has recently been embroiled in a controversy sparked by an interaction on the fan communication app Bubble. When chatting with fans, Bona was accused of discriminating against male fans.
The incident began when the fan questioned Bona, asking if she only responds to comments from female fans and neglects those from males. Bona defended herself by explaining that the usernames she replied to did not indicate gender, and she responded without knowing the fan’s gender.
Fan: Are you only responding to comments from women and not to men? Are you discriminating?
Bona: Usernames don’t show gender, but here’s my reply.
The exchange was quickly shared on X (formerly Twitter) and community sites like TheQoo, where it gained significant attention.

- “She doesn’t reply to your bubbles because they smell.”
- “Not in his right mind.”
- “Don’t send her stinky bubbles, you idiots.”
- “What kind of weird things are you saying to make her react this way…”
- “Maybe if you didn’t come off as such losers, this wouldn’t happen, haha.”
- “How disgusting must your messages be for her to not respond at all?”
- “You need to send messages that she can actually have a back-and-forth. How is she supposed to reply if you only say what you want?”
- “The idea that she only responds to women is baseless. You must be feeling pretty inferior, you idiot.”
- “If you want a reply, send a message worth replying to, you moron.”
- “How did they even come to the conclusion that she only replies to women’s comments?”
- “If your comments sound as disgusting as you sound, then she might think they’re from men. Did they assume the replies were to women because she only responded to nice comments?”
- “This is driving me crazy, seriously.”
- “Feeling inferior, haha.”
