Though humorous to most international fans, his Korean audience was not as amused. Many did not approve of the crude remarks and actions Jae shows on his stream, even stating that it would be better to swear than to such things. Some have also stated that normal Korean does not make "sugar daddy" jokes. Therefore, Jae, as a celebrity, should be more careful due to his influence.

Jae first responded to the backlash on another Twitch stream, speaking in Korean. He is heard saying, "Honestly, for me, it was just something I did with my friends. Maybe it's a cultural difference, but I will refrain from commenting on it... I really think that this shows a big cultural difference. Whenever I speak in English, the direct Korean translations are often made to stir issues numerous times. If you choose to mistranslate what I say and purposely try to create issues from it, you should probably refrain from watching my streams for your own betterment."

However, Jae's comments on the situation only made the backlash from the Korean audience worse. On Mar. 23, Jae released a short apology via Twitter that reads,

"I sincerely apologize to those who were hurt by my actions. I will try to work harder and to show a better version of myself."
