| Controversies | • In January 2021, Nancy's pictures were taken illegally, manipulated, and spread on social media platforms. The pictures went viral, which harmed Nancy's reputation, bringing Nancy mental and social damage. Soon, Nancy's agency issued a statement, saying, [11]ABS CBN "Nancy is a victim of having photos being inappropriately taken and manipulated. The person that should be protected first and foremost is Nancy. We ask for your cooperation with a heavy heart. We will follow through with our legal actions with no leniency and without reaching a settlement. Nancy is currently undergoing severe emotional turmoil. We sincerely ask of you: We long for an end to malicious posts that harass our artist. We want to express our gratitude to fans who always love and support our artists. We will continue to do our best in ensuring our artists’ personal and given rights." • During the 2020 COVID lockdown in South Korea, the shooting of Nancy's upcoming Filipino series was delayed, which upset her. When Nancy was talking about it in an interview, she said, "All these nonsense and quarantine whatever." Her comments infuriated netizens, and they condemned her for being inconsiderate of the people affected by COVID. [12]Philippine News • In 2018, Momoland faced Sajaegi (chart manipulation) accusations after their album 'Great!' sales reached over 8000 copies on the first day of its release.

[14]M News • In November 2018, during the MGA (MBC Plus X Genie Music Awards) ceremony, Momoland passed by South Korean Boyband BTS without bowing (an action for showing respect to seniors) to them, which is considered disrespectful in South Korea as BTS was senior to Momoland.

After the incident, Armys flooded Momoland's social media accounts with hate comments and condemned them for being disrespectful towards their idol.
