They are doing too much at a time when they should have laid low, so their image is now at rock bottom…
If they want to save their image, fans should stop making annoying remarks, and they need to come back with significantly improved skill… Finally, the company needs to stop fighting with the public. It’s possible but extremely difficult
In order to recover, they must demonstrate their abilities through diligent effort. This is especially true for Sakura.
Their image could have been saved had the company not released that ridiculous documentary. Now people just find them annoying.
The idols who are doing well now have all had crises like this, especially female idols… aespa and IVE were criticized too, and their image are now restored with improved skills
