E.Via and Shin Hyun Joon express their feelings on bullying and 'T-Jinyo'

After the official announcement about�Hwayoung's leave, various individuals, who claim to have information about the alleged bullying, as well as industry professionals have been revealing their opinions on the current controversy.

With the member count of 'T-Jinyo' ('We Demand the Truth from T-ara') on the rise with many frustrated former fans and netizens joining in to express their opinions on the matter, rapper E.Via has stepped up to criticize the "witch-hunting" by the group, as well as express her own feelings about bullying and ostracism.

E.Via wrote, "Creating�T-Jinyo seems a bit overboard. Is witch-hunting your hobby? I feel bad for her [Hwayoung] and also want to know the truth, but if things continue this way, it just means that there will be more people who will get hurt. Let's take it easy on the curiosity."

She also added, "I was also bullied by others before and I know that it is something that people should never do, but I think this (situation) leading into a witch hunt is also bad. It's making things worse."

Actor Shin Hyun Joon also spoke on the issue of bullying as he wrote, "Bullying.. is a cowardly, faceless killer. If you hurt someone, you'll be hurt even more later on. Why don't people realize what a joyous event it is when those around you come across success.."

Meanwhile, 'T-Jinyo' has seen its member count rise to near 200,000 since its creation
