Choreographer Posts Apology After Receiving Heated Backlash For Criticizing A Group
Recently, popular choreographer Choi Hyoje received backlash for his Instagram story allegedly taking out his anger about a certain idol group.
“It’s not like I’m asking them to put their head down and do a headspin. I’m just asking you to dance comfortably with two legs on the ground.
Ok….I guess..it could be hard to do…yeah…
But then you should be putting in the effort.
Man….I really wrote all the curse words possible but erased it all.
Please practice.”
— Choi Hyoje
Although they did not reveal any specifics of who they were talking about, netizens felt that this was inappropriate to post on social media. They quickly posted another Instagram story, trying to make up for the previous post.
But I should still protect them.
— Choi Hyoje
Netizens couldn’t understand how they were protecting them if they already criticized them.
- “What do you mean to protect them? You already posted all that.”
- “The title is wrong. They aren’t TripleS’s main choreographer. They make choreography for various groups, so we don’t know who they are talking about.”
- “The way they wrote it is so…”
- “Protect what? Ridiculous.”
- “So ridiculous…so stingy.”
With the growing backlash online, the choreographer posted an apology.
I apologize for causing concern and inconvenience to people due to my careless actions. I will act more carefully going forward.
— Choi Hyoje
Netizens felt that thoughts like that should be spoken directly to the group instead of posting it online.
- “Why would you post it online on your Instagram story?”
- “If I were the company, I wouldn’t want to work with him.”
- “Same. If they aren’t even going to reveal who they are talking about, what’s the point. Who know what they will post next.”
- “Write things like this in your diary.”
- “Why are there so many choreographers that think they are celebrities these days.
- “Don’t attack them anonymously online. Just tell them directly when teaching them.”
