YGE staff member protests overwork before committing suicide

Yes, but I feel that there is more to it than that. The levels of stress she shows through her Instagram posts and actions suggest that she is no longer chasing her childhood dreams but rather she being pressured to stay at YG. If you were to be have a job with conditions horrible enough for you to contemplate suicide, then wouldn't you try to quit said job? I would assume that most people, if not all, would immediately quit a job that brings them as much misery as the girl experienced. However, she took her own life, an act that some would probably write off as just another unfortunate incident of mental illness, which could very well be the case. But, to me at least, it appears to be that she felt she was unable to leave the abusive environment YG forced upon her due to other reasons that we are simply unaware about. Nevertheless, my guess for one of the reasons that she couldn't leave YG was that she felt her career as an entertainer would be in jeopardy as she may have been threatened to be blacklisted. But as I said, this is just some conspiracy theory from a random dude on reddit...
