Previously, the dancer came heavily under fire for discrimination against small company advertisements. According to the report, she received a payment of 30 million to 50 million KRW (about $23,000 to $39,000) from the companies for a single post about their products but didnвҖҷt do her part of the contract until a couple months after the promised deadline. NO:ZE was even accused of deleting the advertisement posts for вҖңsmall companiesвҖқ shortly after uploading, while the posts for expensive, luxury brands went undeleted. NO:ZEвҖҷs agency quickly denied the report at first but retracted its original statement and officially apologized the day after. вҖңWe have learned that our side failed to meet the advertisement timeline for endorsement offers by certain companies. NO:ZE and the agency are both deeply reflecting on the issue after realizing the gravity of the mistake. WeвҖҷll make sure that this does not happen again,вҖқ the company wrote. Some people expected the dancer to at least make an indirect apology during the concert, but instead, she shed tears and mentioned вҖңworking hard,вҖқ infuriating the people, especially those working in the вҖңsmall companiesвҖқ or the PR department.
