Girl group MADEIN will soon make a comeback on February 14, 2025. This comes after the shocking controversy involving former member Gaeun, who accused the CEO of 143 Entertainment of sexual assault.
I told him that it was my wish to leave the group after the round of activities [we were doing]. He asked that if he granted my wish, would I also grant his wish? He wanted me to be his one-day girlfriend.
He asked if he could kiss me, but then he grabbed me and forced me to kiss him. I kept my mouth shut, but he suddenly forced his tongue in and kept kissing me, he also licked my neck and ears.
I was so focused on protecting [down here] but he said to move my hands and kept touching me.
He asked ‘can I touch your breasts?’ and ‘can I feel your butt just this one time?’
I said no, but he kept doing this for two hours.
— Gaeun
Fans have expressed their disgust and disappointment. Not only did the company leave the issue with Gaeun up in the air, they also named the comeback MADEIN FOREVER.
Fans viewed it as disrespect towards Gaeun.
disgusted isn’t even the fucking word for it anymore it goes beyond that. the audacity to say “madein forever” when you assaulted gaeun, kicked her out, are abusing the other girls, and threaten them with debt

As such, fans hope to boycott the company and the comeback. They have been trending the hashtags #JUSTICEFORGAEUN, #FREEMADEIN, and #BOYCOTT143ENT. The company has allegedly been hiding posts regarding these petitions and boycotts.
The amount of comments they hid under this post is laughable 🤣
