It all started when Beomhan reacted by making questionable “jokes” following the results of the US presidential election. Although he intended to address a bad situation with humor, viewers did not receive it well, as many thought the jokes were insensitive, inappropriate, and not his place as a man.

All women, this week, rest in peace, and I would like to say, “Rest in peace” to all women, and this week and as a country we have failed you. And, Donald Trump, congratulations on being president. However, I would like to say that Beyoncé made the best music video of all time and thank you, Beyoncé. …And if you are a woman, know that we are on your side, and I am so sorry, rest in peace and good luck. I am very sorry. And please, take a mental health day and go shopping or something.

— Beoman

Beomhan quickly apologized after taking heat for the now-viral clip. However, as netizens continued to criticize him and resurface past controversies and false accusations, the former K-Pop trainee became defensive and lashed out on social media with both rants on X (formerly Twitter) and broadcasts in live on Instagram.

Clips from his two Instagram live broadcasts went viral, as Beomhan cursed those who kept leaving him hateful comments. His behavior during live broadcasts alarmed netizens as he shouted and used profanity in public. Many suspected he was using drugs and was “collapsing”, even though he claimed to be sober.

Some loyal fans defended Beomhan, but his behavior discouraged many. Beomhan also apologized again.

Now, a fellow artist has spoken out about the controversy.

Former DAY6 member Jae (known as eaJ) has had his fair share of controversies, which led to him not only leaving JYP Entertainment but also being “canceled” by many K-Pop fans.

As the years have passed, eaJ has grown in many ways. He has continued to pursue music as a solo artist, but also often uses his platform to make a difference. If you follow him, you know that he is one of the few “idols” who has spoken openly about the injustices Gaza is facing in Israel’s war on Palestine.

EaJ also attracted attention when he spoke out about the “disgusting” protest methods against RIIZE‘S Seunghan. A characteristic of each is that he does not remain silent if something disturbs him.

So, as clips of Beomhan continue to circulate, with people continually condemning him but also mocking him, everyone has spoken. He shared a post via X, saying that while holding someone accountable for their actions is important, he knows firsthand from experience that Beomhan was having a manic episode. He asked netizens to have empathy and patience. When Beomhan is fully conscious, it is possible to have a conversation.

A producer who worked with Beomhan also intervened amid the controversy. Read more below.
