— OP

A friend of the OP alleged that Taeil’s acquaintance who had been sitting next to him, had asked the OP not to take photos. They cited that Taeil was going through a tough time.

My friend took this photo as they ran into him coincidentally while eating, and the person next to him ridiculously said that he was having a hard time, and asked them not to take photos.

The OP’s original post was soon deleted, but not before other netizens could take screenshots and share it online. A repost of the original has gone viral with over 500,000 views on X.

Taeil was previously charged, but the court determined that there was no need to detain him. Hence, Taeil is legally allowed to roam free on the streets until further notice or sentence. He was previously charged for the rape of a foreign woman. On October 15, 2024, SM Entertainment stated that his exclusive contract was terminated instantly on that day. Taeil debuted as a member of NCT in 2016 and was active in sub-units NCT 127 and NCT U. You can read more about it below.
