Yeri Oh's KakaoTalk message to Krowdpop Vietnam staff

I am aware of the situation that is going on. We do not have the money to cover for the show.

By what R*** said to me, R*** you said this was Richard’s plan. But do you really think this was RICHARD’S PLAN all along?

Richard Choo’s favorite rhetorical question: “Have I ever lied to you?”Did Richard PLAN to not have enough money to run this show? No.

Did Richard PLAN for <developer> to do such a crappy job of our platform development and have the app fail on us for our first show? No.

Did Richard PLAN the confusion with TGM Events? No.

What happened is what happened and he will try to find solutions to overcome all this unexpected mess.

Every time something goes wrong for a show, all the staff puts the blame on Richard and they just leave the company. This has always been the cycle.

I have been with Richard over 3 years now. And I’ve seen everything that happened to this company from Krowdpop’s very first show.

Richard has never scammed anyone or done anyone wrong purposefully. If he did, I would not be with him until today. I am still with him because I know the truth behind everything that has happened in this company. If not, am I crazy? Or am I dumb??

Even for TGM Events (which he has no relation to) he took the blame and did not say anything (until it started to have direct effect on our show). Banana verified this with the BTS manager and they even posted a support announcement on their official fan club that they verified everything from Korea and that fans were mistaken about Krowdpop. That’s how the TGM fume died down. )

And for our old developers who did bad things to Richard, and for all their damage to this company, he took all the shit and did not say anything.

R***, I know you do not want to take the blame for the venue. AND YOU WON’T. Richard will make sure you don’t have to take any responsibility for any of this. Neither will <company>. Richard will put the full blame on himself. So don’t worry.

I know you all believe Richard to be a good person. This was why you had given him your trust and respect from the very beginning. What a person feels cannot be manipulated. You saw his good heart.

R*** you said Krowdpop is a game? But what game are we playing?

R*** you said this team is just a tool for you guys to control. But control for what? For failure?

The <other company> money was used upfront so that everyone at Krowdpop COULD GET PAID. (The payroll excludes Richard and myself)

If this was all RICHARD’S EVIL PLAN AND GAME then why is Richard playing a game that just gives him loss and failure?

Even our wedding savings went in to cover for your payroll in August. If Richard is playing A GAME then why am I making this sacrifice?

R***, you said Richard is calming everyone down during the weekends so we could make up stories by today. Huh?? R***. Seriously.

Richard will protect you first. NO MATTER WHAT. That’s all he cares about right now. So just give him a chance and put your imaginations on hold R***. You don’t need to kill Richard just so that you can live because Richard will die first so that you can live. Don’t worry.
