Sungchan's comment in a post has drawn attention across social media for its wholesome nature. However, some claimed that his remark implied an "OT6" narrative, angering BRIIZEs.

Here's what happened.

RIIZE Sungchan's Comment Gain Attention Amid Seunghan's Absence, BRIIZEs Defend Idol

On March 26, a BRIIZE uploaded a post on RIIZE's community on fan platform Weverse, showing a picture of the six active members. The fan wished the members good luck and declared unwavering love for the group.

"RIIZE, I wish you good luck. Fly high and be happy," OP stated. "Even if there's no such thing as forever, I love you so much for eternity."

Sungchan managed to notice the post, and simply acknowledged the heartwarming content by saying, "Let's be together forever."

His comment tugged heartstrings inside the fandom, as some also lowkey mentioned Seunghan in the post.

• "Yes, let us love all the members. Every member, RII7E deserves love and support, whether now he is in the group or if he becomes solo one day."
• "Let's be together forever, Sungchan! I'll always be with you."
• "We will walk on SUNGCHAN's path as always. I'll be with you wherever it is. Thank you and I love you!"
• "Always be healthy. I wish you all the best. I'll give you everything."
• "I also want us to be together forever. Let's be together forever."
• "RIIZE forever. For that forever to continue, BRIIZEs will always be by your side."
• "Nothing lasts forever. But I don't want to believe it."
• "I'll support you from the bottom! You just have to go up! I love you."
• "All right, let's dare to say eternity."
• "I'll cheer for you in your 20s and 30s even after that."
• "Sungchan, I hope you see only good things, pretty and sweet things."

However, Sungchan's comment trended on social media platform X (Twitter). Some netizens claimed that Sungchan was laying support for RIIZE as a six-membered group and excluding Seunghan, who has been on an indefinite hiatus since November 2023.

BRIIZEs were enraged with the claims and called them out for "twisting" the nuances behind Sungchan's comment. Here's how they reacted:

stop twisting his words and leave him alone. u know nothing about him u are not him!!
