Although celebrities have the right to be free, it can be hard for people who have chosen to become idols in particular. Recently, an idol garnered massive backlash online for revealing why he no longer dates publicly.
In a fan-messaging app, Block B U-Kwon‘s response to a fan went viral online.
Fan: I hope Oppa will be happy.
U-Kwon: I dated publicly after hearing this, and all my fans hated me. Dating my ass.
K-Netizens were absolutely appalled at his response.
- “At this point, his fans are a problem too. They continue to support a guy like him only to get answers like that on a subscription platform.”
- “I guess he can just do whatever he wants.”
- “I’m not a fan, but I heard about this from my friends, who were freaking out over this.”
- “You’re the one who chose this job, then do something else instead of an idol!”
- “What’s his problem?”
- “He’s making it sound like the fans who stayed with him to the end are the ones who are at fault here.”
- “What the…”
- “Is that the only type of happiness to you?”
- “How is dating happiness…so stupid?”
Previously, U-Kwon made his relationship public with model Jeon Seun Hye in 2012 after expressing his frustration about keeping it a secret.
In 2022, they couple revealed that they had broken up after ten years and remain good friends.
