In a recent turn of events, RIIZE's Seunghan finds himself embroiled in another wave of criticism from Korean netizens. The controversy stems from a private livestream that Seunghan conducted with TXT's Soobin, which initially garnered attention from international fans.

While the previous controversy has been addressed, a new video has surfaced, reigniting the flames of public scrutiny in Korea.

The Controversial Term "Our" Eunchae 

The video, which emerged on November 16, features Seunghan and what appears to be TXT's Soobin engaged in conversation on a shared Instagram Live, attracting only a handful of viewers.

In the clip, Seunghan is seen seemingly mocking Soobin, expressing doubt about his abilities in dancing, singing, and rapping, and making a dismissive comment about his role as an MC on Music Bank.

What intensified the controversy was Seunghan's reference to LE SSERAFIM's Eunchae as "Our" Eunchae, a term commonly used to denote family members or close relationships in Korean culture.

Seunghan: It's a fact. You can't dance, sing, or rap. You're just all excited just because you MC-ed for Music Bank. You even got to meet our Eunchae.
Soobin: I have something to show you. *turns camera to show his foot making the gesture*

In Korea, the use of the term "Our" is reserved for family and significant others, not casual acquaintances or friends. Given that Seunghan was mocking Soobin, who shares the same label as Eunchae.

The use of the term has triggered backlash from netizens who perceive it as disrespectful and inappropriate. Despite efforts by fans to defend Seunghan, Korean netizens expressed their displeasure with comments.

Here's How K-Netz Reacted:

• "Wow, this is so raw."
• "Who is the male idol getting dissed? LOL. He referred to Eunchae as 'Our Eunchae'? I'm about to go insane. Are they siblings or something?"
• "I'm a LE SSERAFIM fan, and I am f@cking pissed. LOL. Why does our Eunchae need to be dragged into that kind of conversation between these losers?"
• "LOL, these guys are major turn-offs... They themselves are  stopping us from becoming fans."
• "I feel so bad for Eunchae..."
• "Our Eunchae, LOL. Ah, I'm f@cking pissed. His fans are defending this? And are claiming this post is malicious? You guys never change."
• "Our Eunchae..."
• "Fans are saying it is normal for idols to talk this way, LOL."
• "Their image is destroyed."
• "I thought there was no way his image could get worse from his previous controversy, LOL."
• "He's f@cking rude."

This incident follows a pattern for Seunghan, who has previously faced leaks of photos and clips around the time of RIIZE's debut, further complicating the emerging idol's public image.

As the controversy unfolds, fans and critics alike await Seunghan's response and actions, as the K-pop community grapples with the implications of yet another alleged transgression within its ranks.
