He spilled on his excitement about Stray Kids headlining Lollapalooza Paris 2023, an excitement that STAYs very much share.

And while he was at it, he also tried to share his TMI for the day…and hilariously had a mini breakdown over it.

But the moment that got particular attention from fans was when a comment asked him to “speak in English, please.” Bang Chan did not get defensive, but he did politely point out that, while he was speaking English at that moment, he is really allowed to speak in whatever language he wants.
"speak in english please"
🐺: I can speak whatever i want, so i'm speaking in english so yeah

When another comment asked him to “Stop speaking in Korean,” Bang Chan simply answered that watching his live stream was optional.
"chan stop speaking in korean"
🐺: wow i mean you don't have to watch me if you don't want to, it's up to you

Seeing as Bang Chan is a Korean who works as a K-Pop idol, his reaction suggests, in the best way, that it shouldn’t be surprising to find him speaking Korean. And fans immediately praised him for it!
“chan stop talking in korean”
“you don’t have to watch if you don’t want to”
YES BANGCHAN, LET'S GO!!!!!!!!!!!— emy | fan acc (@itsmirohh) January 28, 2023

…while others noted that over the past few months, Bang Chan seems to have entered his realest era yet—something everyone is absolutely here for.
chan finally in his "get fucked" era. telling us that him and the members can handle their friendships, that his health is his business, that we need to stop trying to make him "rest", that he's gonna speak whatever language he wants OH WE LOVE TO SEE IT

Bang Chan has repeatedly proven that he is an icon not only in talent, but in personality too!
