Others felt that although Seunghan was not entirely innocent, the protest methods were exaggerated.

K-Pop is really sick. Even if at times it has reaped what it has sown, this method of protest, which seems to become the norm, in the eyes of third parties simply appears as a mental illness. I can’t believe this is the final choice these self-induced slaves who are K-Pop fans make because they are held hostage by their prejudices and unable to produce an effective boycott.

  • Who will clean those wreaths? I want to send dozens of them to the president’s office to say that democracy is dead.
  • They probably sent it to the company…
  • LOL.
  • They didn’t send it to Hong Seunghan, but to SM, right?
  • As someone who doesn’t know much about idols, it’s a little disturbing to see.
  • Well, right now. X, people insult other members, cursing them to death and even involving their family, because they are doing nothing. And these are the guys who complain about how pitiful Seunghan is. Is this right? LOL.
  • I’m also an idol fan and I hate the way people send funeral wreaths… It’s really disturbing. It’s good that he retired, and I also think that the company is so stupid that they don’t recognize things until the funeral wreaths are sent, but these actions are so… ugh.

Meanwhile, OT7 fans have been sending support and love to Seunghan via social media.
