HYBE Founder Bang Si Hyuk’s New Photo With KATSEYE Sparks Major Criticism
HYBE founder Bang Si Hyuk‘s latest photo with KATSEYE draws major criticism.
The last time Bang Si Hyuk posted photos with KATSEYE, all eyes were on his weight loss.
On October 7, a new photo of KATSEYE and Bang Si Hyuk from an article in The New Yorker was shared.
When Korean netizens saw the photo, they hit back at the founder for inserting himself into the photo.
- “Seems like his self-awareness is way too inflated. He can’t even tell when to join in or not.”
- “Learn when to join and when to back off, man.”
- “Why are you even chiming in there?”
- “Is he trying to warn us not to stan this group?”
- “Know your place…”
- “Ugh.”
- “Well, at least he stood to the side making it easier to cut him out of the picture.”
Many international netizens also found the photo weird, with many editing it so that the HYBE founder is cut off.

Yet, some shared that the article itself is about Bang Si Hyuk…
So it shouldn’t be surprising that he’s in the photo.
Damm, why would Bang Shihyuk be in a photograph for an article that is literally about Bang Shihyuk?
Y'all are so bitter it makes you stoopid, my gawd https://t.co/i6v5qUI3S1— Ofhoseok⁷💜 (@SarahsJustHere) October 7, 2024
The article is titled “The K-Pop King” and speaks about Bang Si Hyuk’s experience with HYBE and the artists.
