BABYMONSTER’s Chiquita Faces Vicious Online Attacks
Fans Rally Behind Idol Amidst Hateful Comments Tied to Global Events
The K-Pop world is in an uproar as fans express outrage over hateful comments directed at BABYMONSTER member Chiquita. The backlash, appearing on the fan platform Weverse, has left netizens disgusted.
Online Trolling Erupts
Recently, the young artist, Chiquita, shared a series of personal photos on Weverse. However, the posts were quickly inundated with abusive messages from some users. These comments, described as “disgusting” by observers, have sparked widespread concern and condemnation.
Many believe the surge in negative comments is linked to recent geopolitical tensions involving Thailand and Cambodia. The specific use of red and blue hearts in Chiquita‘s post, colors aligning with the Thai flag, appears to have been misinterpreted or weaponized by those engaging in the harassment.
I have no idea about the w@r but you all slxt shaming 16 years old minor wishing her de@th is such a disgusting thing, Monstiez & Cheetas please leave positive comments under Chiquita’s recent weverse post

Fan Outcry and Support
The situation highlights a concerning trend of online harassment targeting young artists. In 2023, a report indicated that over 40% of social media users had experienced cyberbullying, a figure that underscores the pervasive nature of online abuse, particularly towards public figures like Chiquita (Statista, 2023).
Fans have been actively showing their support for Chiquita, flooding her posts with positive messages and condemning the hateful comments. The incident has amplified calls for greater accountability and respect in online fan interactions.
The outpouring of solidarity demonstrates the strong bond between BABYMONSTER and their fanbase, often referred to as “Monstiez.” They are united in their desire to shield the idol from unwarranted animosity.
