AOA’s Mina also criticized over “Pray For Paris” SNS error

AOA’s Mina becomes the second celebrity to be critiqued for spelling gaff in light of posting her respects for the tragedy in Paris, France.
With the recent spelling error made by
APink’s Chorong , to which she has apologised, netizens have backtracked a number of SNS updates from celebrities and found more errors in their posts. In one of her Instagram updates, Mina posted a photo dedicated to the tragedy in Paris with the tag, “#prayforparis.” However, it was later on discovered that the post was originally posted with the tag “paryforparis,” causing netizens to react over her typing error.
Although the post has been edited, the issue was brought to light after Chorong was heavily criticised for her typing gaff. However, many netizens defended Mina’s post by stating that the error was a simple typing error, while Chorong consciously misspelled the post using a key on the other side of the keyboard.
The post led on to other discussions that although the original posts were posted with sincere intentions, it seems exaggerated to have the artists receive more hate over a fault they have since edited or apologised for.

Chorong apologizes for spelling gaffe

After receiving a lot of criticism for her spelling error in her post dedicated to the tragic events in Paris, Apink‘s Chorong released an official apology for her mistake.
In the original post to Apink’s fan cafe, the A Cube Entertainment singer mistakenly wrote “Play for Paris” instead of the symbolic “Pray for Paris,” leading many netizens to criticize her for not checking her spelling before publishing her post. In response to such criticisms, the Apink leader released an official apology, and promised fans that she will be more careful in the future.

A translation of the singer’s apology can be found below:

No matter how dumb I am, I’m not someone who’d upload something without knowing the spelling.. I don’t know why I wrote it like that. I’m curious about my fingers too.. Anyway, I did write it wrong, so I guess I really am an idiot.. I surprised myself when I saw it after it was published and fixed it right away.. But you guys already took a screenshot of it and started talking about it.. I didn’t know it was this widespread until my friend texted me about it.. aigoo haha… Anyway! I was just ranting because I was upset. I meant well and I really wanted to pay my respects, but one letter completely changed the meaning. I’m really sorry and I’ll be more careful next time!”

EXO-L furious at MAMA’s unfair treatment of EXO

Voting for the annual MAMA awards is always extremely hectic for fans, but EXO-L are furious at Mnet for making voting even harder for fans of EXO.
According to Chinese fans, MAMA is taking extra precautions to reduce fans cheating the voting system, but only doing so for fans trying to vote for EXO. Photos of Chinese fans trying to vote for the award show revealed that upon trying to vote for the SM Entertainment male group, users were presented with a captcha prompt. While the measure was done to prevent fraudulent votes, fans pointed out that the prompt has caused many errors for fans, and has greatly reduced the amount of votes that EXO could have received. Photos also showed that upon voting for any other group, users were not presented with a captcha prompt.

NETIZEN REACTIONS

Koreaboo has collected reactions from Netizens who commented on the original article from our Korean source. The below comments are the most popular comments at the time of this article being published.

If you vote for EXO in China 8 out of 10 times you get a captcha prompt

G-Dragon, Taeyang, CL, and Dara upload mysterious teasers, hints of collaboration?

VIPs and Blackjacks are at a loss as their biases upload similar but varying teasers onto their Instagram with the hashtags, #WHOSNEXT, #YG, and #20151121.
    Almost simultaneously, BIGBANG ‘s G-Dragon & Taeyang and 2NE1 ‘s CL & Dara uploaded individual letters in monochrome onto their SNS accounts, though did not comment on what they were for other then using the cryptic hashtag mentioned above.

With the date November 21st merely a given in YG Entertainment ‘s most recent teaser poster which was later confirmed to be a CL solo comeback, fans are taking a guess as to whether these four artists will be dropping a collaboration or even promoting as a sub-unit.
Others have put the letters together, guessing that the letters all stand for “Hello bi+ches"
