The four women who went viral after making a video correcting the English of an ex-boyfriend have apologised for their actions and requested Twitter user @Cikgu Anep to remove the video from his timeline.
Cikgu Anep shared the screenshots of their alleged apology.
“From the way of writing, it doesn’t seem like there is any regret. Even tried to gaslight someone else.”
Daripada cara penulisan, macam tak nampak penyesalan tu. Siap cuba gaslight orang lain pulak.

Masa views 65k dah dua hari dekat Tiktok tak fikir pun pasal perasaan.
Pasal punca tu, takda pun sebut dalam video. Jadi macam mana orang nak tahu?
But, everyone make mistakes… pic.twitter.com/QNR27Vck0T
From the messages that were sent by these girls, they informed that the original video on Tiktok has been taken down.
They claimed that the ex-boyfriend had cheated many times which was why they made a sarcastic video in response.
According to Cikgu Anep, he has deleted the video he reposted because his aim of sending a message to the video’s owner has been achieved. He also remarked that too many people had reacted negatively which deviated from his main intention of reposting the video.
Jadi, saya telah memadam video tular tadi atas beberapa sebab.

1. Tujuan utama, untuk sampaikan mesej kepada tuan video sudah tercapai. Beliau telah memadam vtt tersebut.
2. Terlalu ramai yang mengeluarkan kata-kata kesat sekali gus tersasar daripada objektif utama.
Sekian.
There were still netizens who believed that the video should not have been removed.
Takyah padam. Ironically, their correction is WRONG at the first place. Based on the ws convo, bukannya tambah “Have” to “what I made” it should have been “what I have DONE”. Nk betulkan orang, diri sendiri pun bangang.

They were seen belittling the man’s poor command of the English language.
Since the video became viral, the girls have been on the receiving end of criticism.
Netizens also pointed out that the girls themselves made a mistake in correcting someone else’s mistake.

Using language proficiency to belittle someone is never a good thing. Everyone makes mistakes and it is better to correct them properly than to humiliate them.
