On the 19th, Soyou claimed on her social media (SNS) account that she had recently been racially discriminated against at Delta Air Lines, but a ,,, netizen responded, "We were on the same flight, but Soyou was heavily intoxicated and there were no security personnel," which escalated the controversy. Although the comment was later deleted, debate over its authenticity continued. In response, Soyou immediately issued a second statement to clarify, saying, "Before boarding, I only drank a small amount of alcohol along with a meal in the lounge, and boarded normally," ,,, "I asked the crew to confirm the meal time, but they couldn't communicate perfectly in English, so I requested a Korean flight attendant. During this process, the message seemed misdelivered, and the steward and security staff came, but a crew member who spoke Korean mediated and cleared up the misunderstanding." He continued, "Unpleasant situations continued afterward," and claimed, "I moved aside in the hallway to avoid the cart, but the steward forcefully told me to 'get out of here.' The crew explained on my behalf, but there was no apology." He also said, " A staff member on board requested a Korean menu, but received menus in other languages, repeating strange situations," and "Although the crew member who helped me apologized, I was taken aback by their cold gaze and attitude throughout the flight." Soyou said, "It wasn't for compensation or exposés , I wrote this with the hope that no one will ever go through the same thing again," and added, "I hope that the untrue information will not be exaggerated. I also sincerely apologize to the passengers who may have been inconvenienced by my work," he stated. After ,,,, as past onboard anecdotal videos by Soyu on YouTube and Delta's history of racial discrimination controversies were revisited, public opinion shifted to a relatively neutral tone. It appears that ,,,Soyu succeeded in escalating the controversy with a quick and concrete explanation!!!!!!
