What's this business about Soobin getting a lot of hate lately??? (1 Viewer)

[ChiaraStar169]

I heard on FB, and now on here since @Hao mentioned it in Random Thoughts, that he's getting hate for whatever reason, but no context. What's the tea??? Why are they hating on poor Binnie???

Soobin and a few other idols are under fire for watching the show 'made in abyss'

Spoiler: Trigger Warning: Generally upsetting shit

Some people have accused them of pedophilia for watching it when the show isn't even about pedophilia nor does it sexualise children. Really bad shit

Apparently he watched a provocative anime and recommended it to fans, (mind you this happened a YEAR AGO) everyone is bringing it up now and calling him a pedo.

I'm pretty in Korea, it is HEAVILY censored.

the articles themselves for context that are the root cause of the uproar on the intl side

Spoiler: TW: bc the imagery of this series is intense

now this makes me even MORE pissed! Beating a dead horse will get you absolutely NOWHERE! It's like how they brought up JT and Janet's Super Bowl fiasco like over a decade later - just bury the hatchet already! I mean, he (Soobin) has probably since apologized, right??? So accept it and MOVE THE FUCK ALONG!

I thought it had something RIIZE Seunghan in it
Idk if that's it or not

That was a misunderstanding, people thought they were mocking eunchae but they werent it was a mistranslation

I don't if he apologized or not. He warned about it being provocative and it's very censored in Korea. Non kpop stans are also attacking him and calling him a pedo

well, apology or no apology, this is like BTS without the T, and that's putting it lightly here. I could go on and on and on about how angering this is, but I'd probably get a wp or something on my squeaky clean forums record

I didn't mean to call out others or so but I heard that as well

For context on the anime


But seriously as my older brother said “Separate the art from the artist” this happened a year ago, after they recommended it, Koreans went and watched it, shouldn’t every single Korean that watched it get held accountable too? No because they are privileged “fans” and they are celebrities ofc they are to blame 🙄

We also dont know soobin even finished the anime, maybe he did and didnt see anything wrong or maybe we watched rhe first episode or 2 bc he did give a disclaimer but maybe if he didnt finish it but saw it as a good recommendation. We honestly dont know or at least i dont correct me if im wrong ofc but this is just a thought

I’m not blaming him or dragging him or making him look evil or anything I’m just saying that this kinda is a serious issue and you are right, we don’t know if he’s still watching or anything, we don’t know if any of the idols are, I’m just wondering why “Holding an idol accountable” is associated with dragging, bullying, and dropping the guy.

Exactly, the manga artist is a know lolicon and is only just now getting arrested? I saw people saying that they hope he finishes the manga before going to jail, why aren’t they being dragged for p*dophilia?

No fr like people will do anything to cancel anyone even if it involves saying things that arent even true basically
