The 15-year-old entered the K-pop industry under HYBE as a LE SSERAFIM member in May and had to go on a hiatus barely 18 days after making her debut due to bullying allegations. She was later removed from the group in July.Claims that the former LE SSERAFIM member was innocent gained traction when the ex-idol, with the assistance of a friend, posted a lengthy letter with document scans from the School Violence Committee. Fans who are still loyal to the 15-year-old arranged a billboard ad to celebrate her birthday on November 16.They wished to show her that she was loved and supported by many. However, reactions to the ad remain divided, with the majority leaning towards negative comments. One consistent response from netizens has been the length of time Kim Garam actively promoted himself as an idol.They could not understand how some fans developed a strong relationship with someone they saw for only a couple of weeks.Ella | CHESHIRE SOTY ≷@ryujinultzystop glorifying bullies twitter.com/no_feu/status/…2stop glorifying bullies twitter.com/no_feu/status/…des ♡@gorillagripdeslike i don’t even agree w the ppl bullying her but it’s been how long since y’all last saw her…? she not even an idol anymore like a whole BILLBOARD for a random korean girl y’all don’t see how weird that make u looklike i don’t even agree w the ppl bullying her but it’s been how long since y’all last saw her…? she not even an idol anymore like a whole BILLBOARD for a random korean girl 😭😭 y’all don’t see how weird that make u lookSome netizens also commented that the public birthday ad seemed to further degrade her reputation. It might even backfire on the ex-LE SSERAFIM member, some K-pop fans shared. They mentioned that the loyal supporters do not know if the 15-year-old would want her face plastered on billboards or not.lost the idgaf war@Iisacelshes been an idol for 2 weeks while ive been in here for 2 years wheres my billboard twitter.com/no_feu/status/…3shes been an idol for 2 weeks while ive been in here for 2 years wheres my billboard⁉️ twitter.com/no_feu/status/…Ali~@hazyydreamzbeen an idol for all of TWO WEEKS. like give it up twitter.com/no_feu/status/…5been an idol for all of TWO WEEKS. like give it up twitter.com/no_feu/status/…Geo | ❄️🌟@geomansae@lee27nam @pannchoa "Is this a public execution?""Does she even want this?..ㅋㅋㅋ freaking funny""F*ck, at this point, aren't they screwing her up?""As expected, i-roaches are the issueㅋㅋㅋㅋ""I bet that she's gonna be even more embarrassed"1@lee27nam @pannchoa "Is this a public execution?""Does she even want this?..ㅋㅋㅋ freaking funny""F*ck, at this point, aren't they screwing her up?""As expected, i-roaches are the issueㅋㅋㅋㅋ""I bet that she's gonna be even more embarrassed"On the other hand, some people believe in Kim Garam’s innocence and wish for her to debut once again.They raised points, stating that the period of being active was not important and that the internet cyber-bullying her and the agency's treatment was unfair. They want the former LE SSERAFIM member to continue with her dreams. A few netizens were also of the opinion that Kim Garam fans should be left alone.ಇ Millybbooing🍯🌺GARAMBER@kimbunnyboo16Most of the people still don’t know that garam is innocentand now I have an idea let’s trend Garam is innocent on her birthday next to the other trending that we have for her and all of us tweet the proof about she’s not a bully1Most of the people still don’t know that garam is innocentand now I have an idea let’s trend Garam is innocent on her birthday next to the other trending that we have for her and all of us tweet the proof about she’s not a bullyrose⁷✽@chaneIjeansSome of yall have bigger things to worry abt than what garam fans are doing twitter.com/no_feu/status/…21Some of yall have bigger things to worry abt than what garam fans are doing twitter.com/no_feu/status/…Although Kim Garam has been silent on social media since the letter in August, speculative pictures of her being bullied pre-debut began making the rounds on the internet after her departure from LE SSERAFIM. Fans who continue to be loyal to her also raised criticism when the group’s debut documentary, The World is My Oyster, included no footage of her.
