I feel sad reading about what Taem1n went through. He's already been harassed in the military, with his fellow soldiers watching him in the shower. His members exposed him for watching porn when he was a teen boy. They said he didn't like it when he was younger and thought it was weird, but now he likes to search for porn. He would spend hours in his manager's room when he wasn't there, and everyone joked about it. That's gross for a kid in middle school or elementary to watch porn. His private life was invaded and he couldn't do anything but look uncomfortable. The CEO loves him. He was the first sm artist to get a solo debut. Watching his videos, he's sexualized in a way hive artists never were. One of his dance moves is him on his knees, moving back and forth like he's on top of a man.
Something terrible happened to jjong. His depression was likely due to abuse from his father, the industry and terrible fans. Some of the comments fans sent were nasty. He took everything personally and tried to have a close connection with his fans. The fans were encouraged to share their life stories and he wrote songs about them. A beautiful soul gave fans everything, but he needed love in return. His family took the depression and attempts seriously, which is surprising for Koreans. My heart goes out to his friends and family.
