SHINee’s Key Sends A “Warning” To Rookie Boy Group During Viral Radio Broadcast

Recently, rookie group NCT WISH’s appearance on a radio show garnered much attention online because of their “difficult personalities.”
Many news outlets reported on their appearance on the show, stating that they were unenthusiastic despite the DJ’s efforts to get them to react and respond.
This topic became viral online as many netizens compared them to singer Chuu, another guest on the show.
In particular, SHINee’s Key, a senior colleague from the same label, sent a message to the radio program.
While the commercial was playing, Hanhae received a text message from Key.

To this, member Sakuya responded to him.
We will work hard.

With this, netizens wondered how frustrated Key must have been to send a text message during the show.

So shameful. So embarrassed to be a NCT WISH fan.
While many have criticized the group, others feel that there needs to be understanding, as they are a rookie group with foreign members.
