Maybe it's just cuz I know people in the entertainment business and I know precisely how BS this stuff is (like.... almost 100%. Yes, some of it is ROOTED in a true fact or observation - like people leaving after EXO - but with so much inaccurate conjecture piled on top of it that the grains of truth don't even matter anymore).
And also because I know Ayu has done the wrong thing by acknowledging what's being said about her (either by defending herself and appearing insecure, or by leaving Japan and becoming terribly depressed as a result) and I'm kinda hoping I can start a wave of positivity in order to prevent any of those reactions on her end... Not likely to make a difference, but hey! A girl can dream
