During the concert, when the members were giving their closing comments, The8 gave some comments in Chinese and made a backlash on social media.
No hatred for him, but this is so unresolved for Thai fans and the Korean-taila interpeer that was there. I don’t know why some of you did not see him as a problem when he wasn’t professional at all 🥲 sure that he has the full right to speak his mother tongue, but isn’t it here? https://t.co/oijoauhmsa

Why can’t you do it? The Thai language does not speak a word what is linked to Thailand? Other countries, Chinese, why do you have to speak in Thailand? Everything that is not appropriate is not appropriate. We are consumers who are exploited and not even honored. Why don’t you ask? #Svt_right_here_in_bangkok pic.twitter.com/gksqvodpo

It is not wrong for him to speak his mother tongue, but this is Thailand. This is so unresolved for Thai fans and the Korean-tailian interpeer that was there. I don’t know why some of you guys did not see it as a problem when it was not professional at all https://t.co/owdbxsaha8

I don’t know him, but if you are not the Thai fans you should stfu on the synophobia here BCS are not. It is a problem that many artists think they come to Thailand to meet fan c (since they cannot keep concert in China), so they always speak Chinese here and his type of rude with Thai fans. https://t.co/bmvosygfrj

The fact that you speak only Chinese in Bangkok is because he knew that 70% of the stadium is Chinese, so he expected to speak Chinese in Thailand. And no, he never spit a single Thai phrase in Thailand, but he decided to speak Chinese and that’s what hurts #JusticeforthaiFans

The Netizen quickly defended the 8, sharing that he also made his closing comments in Korean and that during many shows, the idol spoke in Chinese. Others added that it did not seem to be a problem when the seventeen members spoke in Korean but that hatred was addressed only to 8.
3K RTS Od by Minghao to talk Chinese I hate this fandom so much pic.twitter.com/fbn4mcne41

Complete video in which you can see Minghao speak in Korean and be translated into Thai. Often he also speaks in Chinese after the Korean in many stops that includes America during his birthday, in Korea itself in Singapore. It was not unresolved 🙏pic.twitter.com/rotgxqkkb5 https://t.co/vfgi6ftl1d

First of all, Korean members also spoke in Korean language (their mother tongue), and The8 spoke first in Korean and then Chinese to express his gratitude with both languages he can !!! I don’t see anything wrong with this and often speaks in Chinese during the concert and … https://t.co/4hy3uydy

Why have you just cut the part of Korea? Pls tell me why because the Korean could speak Korean but the Chinese can’t speak Chinese in Thai? Are you racist? !! https://t.co/4oqm1umbqq

Q. Why did Minghao spoke in Chinese in Thailand?
– Minghao, as a Chinese member, often expresses himself in Chinese because it is his mother tongue. It is common for him to do it during the end.Q. Do you only speak Chinese in Thailand?
– No, he also spoke in … pic.twitter.com/c2vy684jvg– 디 ૮₍ ૮₍ ˃⤙˂ (@kook_u_u) February 17, 2025
A fan shared that many were negative towards the speech of The8 because of the alleged behavior of some Chinese fans, but many added that it was unfair that the seventeen member was receiving hatred for this.
One of my Thai friends explained the feeling about Hao’s Chinese comment. Although it is understandable because it also happened to Jakarta Ticketing, but still hating Hao is a bit … we live with positivity and be respectful 😭 pic.twitter.com/phwg4fjao0

Perhaps you dirig your anger towards the organizer who made a mess and rude c-cores instead of Lowkey blame Minghao for talking to mandarin Kpop fans are stupid to die for
– 🐯 (@horanghazed) February 17, 2025
You are already blaming him on him assuming that the more Cfan are coming because of him and that their behavior is his responsibility.
And from the logic of Thai fans, I want to ask you not to comment on my page in Thai. I speak English here, so please also speak in English. It’s … https://t.co/ljuju1z5b7

I am sorry to have said it, but I don’t think those Thai fans are intelligent enough to understand this simple thing that criticism should be directed to Chinese fans if they have problems with Chinese fans … not 8

We understand it, you are angry with the c-caras. Trust me, we understand it. But this is not the case that you face it. Why are you taking your frustration on 🐸? Do not hide your posts and even use tags, which makes it much easier for members to see everyone act like small ungrateful brats. pic.twitter.com/7wzsujpbe
