Txt had just returned with the album The Star Chapter: Togethermarking an important milestone in their career. To promote the release, TXT has organized various activities, including global meetings for fans of video calls to connect with fans.
However, during one of these sessions with Soobin, an individual deliberately reproduced an explicit audio clip manufactured that involves his colleague Yeonjun, leaving a visibly distressed Soobin. The person then uploaded the video recorded online with the caption: “POV: when I asked Soobin directly from the mysterious Audio clip to the Fansign.” They even came to ask Soobin which type of “relationship” with Yeonjun preferred, putting him in an extremely uncomfortable position.
When Soobin remained silent, staring at the screen for almost 20 seconds for the shock, it became rapidly viral on X (previously Twitter). His expression of confusion and helplessness has aroused sympathy and anger from the community.
The fans immediately condemned the accident, labeling it not as a joke but as a clear harassment that could cause emotional damage. The posts that denounce the act flooded social media:
- “What do these shippers think? Why would you show soobin such a clip in a signal fan and ask sexual questions? What did you expect you to say? There must be a sense of respect and dignity.”
- “We ask Bighit to adopt strong measures and permanently prohibit the people who do it.”
- “This is really disgusting. Moas, continue to send an E -mail to Bighit until this person is prohibited forever.”
The controversy has rekindled the debate on the dangers of the excessive “shipping” in the K-Pop fandom. While the combination of idols is often considered harmless entertainment, crossing the line to force idols to confront sexualized content or buildings violate their dignity and well -being.
Since then the video in question has been deleted, but Fandom Moa continues to ask Bighit to impose a permanent ban on the fan responsible for preventing similar accidents in the future.
