SEVENTEEN Fans Demand Photo To Be Taken Down To Avoid Controversy
On August 8, an X (formerly Twitter) user posted a photo of several members from NCT and SEVENTEEN.
Recently, fans were curious about where four NCT members were after they did not return to Korea after attending KCON LA on August 1. But after the photo was released online, fans were glad to see that they were doing just fine.
The photo revealed NCT’s Doyoung, Johnny, Mark, Jungwoo, and SEVENTEEN’s Jeonghan and Seungkwan, who were allegedly on a yacht tour in Hawaii.

This post garnered over 1.5 million views as both CARATs and NCTzens were happy to finally get an update on the members whereabouts.

While the photo seemed harmless, Jeonghan fans posted a statement online requesting that the photos be taken down in case it causes unnecessary controversy considering he is currently serving in the military.

Some fans felt that the photo was suspicious and could be a sasaeng.
This. First time I saw the photo it was very sus already.
Feels like a saesang. Don't engage.
We all love our Jeonghan and Seungkwan with their friends. But they are entitled to their privacy, too. https://t.co/HhLMK4ly5k

Their personal time is not for your clout. Please respect their privacy and be considerate of their current status. Hating on ssngs but being so quick to spread a photo from who knows where, even using hashtags for more engagement. Are you here for them or for your hit tweets? https://t.co/6wyzutLsEq

You all will claim to be against ssngs but will post and spread things from unofficial sources for clout even if it might get your faves in trouble. How about walk the talk and use your brains? If it’s personal time, then it should remain private unless they themselves post. https://t.co/virK6WV7LG

Jeonghan, who enlisted in the military last year, currently serves an alternative service due to a previous ankle injury.
