It was also reported that many industry workers, including top fashion photographers and other fashion stylists, had commented on the editor’s original post to speak out against the idol.

You guys are wasting your time shielding her. If you knew how her character is like, you would never be able to do this. There’s so many rumors about her glaring at everyone and being annoyed and screaming during CF shoots…

I knew that something would come up eventually. I hope she fixes her habits.

A different colleague commented with an anecdote about their experience working with her.

Seeing this post reminds me of someone famous for her pretty face. I’ve been working in the fashion industry for so long but it’s the first time I’ve seen someone like her. When she didn’t like something she just threw her knee blanket. I hope this becomes publicized~

Despite such allegations and many insiders stepping up, SM Entertainment has yet to put out any official notice. The public remains cautious about their views regarding this issue.

Update: Both SM Entertainment and Irene have spoken up about the issue.
