Due to the etiquette expectations in Korea, idol groups usually show each other respect in various ways, including bowing and greetings during events.

Recently, a fourth-generation idol’s discussion of her group’s treatment by other idols sparked surprise from fans.

Billlie‘s Tsuki is currently appearing in the fourth season of Workdol, a show about idols taking on part-time jobs.

During the episode, Tsuki spoke with Lee Seunggi, first asking the star about anything he had noticed about the current generation. After giving a brief answer, he asks if what she was upset about, she begins by explaining that when she is at music shows, she goes to every artist and greets them.

She then explains that from her point of view, other idols pick and choose who to greet, with Seunggi commenting that it seems like they only visit “popular idols.”

This clip was shared on X, where it went viral as netizens shared their thoughts. Many were disappointed at the treatment of Billlie, considering they greet all idols.

The fact that Tsuki mentionned some idols don't greet them makes me sad and annoyed. The Billlie girls are always so sweet to others and some don't have the decency to even say hello ??? pic.twitter.com/6VrtNcN0LR

Others brought up how another idol, Stray Kids‘ Bang Chan brought up a similar point and was criticized for mentioning it.

this isn’t about tsuki (cause she has a point) or any idol at all but why change your opinion now? kpop fans double standards are really shining here… https://t.co/CTmrDkoD9S pic.twitter.com/MmYFvkGCBu
