Fans then noticed that Jaehyun’s reactions when the members were doing individual shots seemed inconsistent, with some pointing out that he was only hyping the members of Hearts2Hearts that were born in Korea, leaving out Indonesian member Carmen and Canadian-born member Stella.
Not them hating on canadians and indonesians too, they were all ‘wow yeay’ for every hearts2hearts member except the two from canada and indonesia😭😭😭 https://t.co/5jWbNa5wVc pic.twitter.com/0tir4qLzhs

so, myung jaehyun hyped the korean members of H2H while intentionally ignoring the foreign members + cheered for his groupmate instead of the music show’s guests?

In the same episode, netizens thought it was disrespectful that the MCs were dancing in a weird way while Xdinary Heroes were singing their new song.

Why was he shaking his hips while another group was being interviewed and singing?

BND’s fans are attention wh*res, but so are BND members themselves.
They’re just a perfect match.

It’s not that he finds himself in embarrassing moments like these. He puts himself there on his own.
It then led to a wave of criticism towards Jaehyun in general with his MC skills, with fans sharing annoyance at how he acted around TWICE‘s Tzuyu.
First he’s annoying tzuyu now h2h does he hate women? Just annoying and tactless https://t.co/aD13DNpqhv pic.twitter.com/wGQqku8Fe1

Some even shared that when ZEROBASEONE won M Countdown, he tried to promote BOYNEXTDOOR’s comeback, which they found disrespectful. Although some fans defended him, saying it was after their speech, some thought it showed Jaehyun’s personality.
Can’t even be surprised anymore lol. He and his groupmate once even promoted their upcoming cb during ZB1’s winning speech on MCountdown. Mind you, this was ZB1’s very first win on MCA, it was such a meaningful moment for us but they just had to ruin itpic.twitter.com/5bXat2DeLH https://t.co/GQp7I7508a

Starting to lose respect for them when ZB1 just got their first ever MCountdown win, and one of their members who was the MC at the time, without any shame, handed the mic to his groupmates and shamelessly promoted their upcoming comeback during ZB1’s winning speech https://t.co/ILi0fjGARP pic.twitter.com/HjCyv3thPg
