The criticism being received by P-pop group BINI has been coming on social media since last week.
It can be recalled that the girl group raised the eyebrows of some netizens and internet personalities for wearing a mask while arriving at an airport.
As a response, the group wore a more concealing outfit, which some netizens said was inspired by the outfit of the dance group Jabbawockeez.
However, some netizens became more critical of the group and even addressed BINI’s attitude on social media.
Some netizens even gave friendly advice to some members of BINI, saying that they should not make fun of the criticisms they receive.
“Sa entertainment, hindi ka dapat nang-aasar. Dapat do something that people will love you kasi yun ang mabenta. Magkakaroon ng mas madaming fans kaysa lalagasan ng fans. They are there because of their fans po. My two-cents,” netizen @pageblooms said.
“Two-cents? Keep the change,” BINI Colet responded.
Netizens called out Colet for her way of replying, saying that the netizen was giving valid advice.
“The statement made is very constructive and respectful. The response though was off. In a few days no one would come over to see them or to take pictures with them anymore. Some people might wear the same outfits and masks and pretend to be bini in public,” netizen Sheng said.
“Enjoy it while it lasts,” netizen Joyce commented.
