The Korean web show "Narak Quiz" is drawing backlash for asking a question that disrespects SEVENTEEN.

"Narak Quiz" is a controversial web show by Psick Univ. Guests who appear on the show are asked controversial and challenging questions that could possibly cause their downfall (or "Narak," which is where the show got its name). The majority of the questions asked are about current affairs and the entertainment industry.

Though the show gained fame for its controversial content, many believe they crossed the line with their most recent episode.

In this episode, the guests were asked to choose between famous Korean content, notably Yoo Jae Suk's "Pinggyego" and "You Quiz on the Block," Jung Jae Hyung's "Fairry Jaehyung," and Na Young Seok's "Nattering with Nah."

However, it was the following question that sparked backlash,

The guests were asked, "Choose the person who has achieved too much compared to their skills among Son Heung Min, BTS's RM, Jay Park, and SEVENTEEN." All the figures mentioned are athletes and artists who have large, powerful fanbases and are admired worldwide.

Among the difficult choices, the eldest Lee Yong Joo asked, "Can I make a bold statement?" He then proceeded to choose SEVENTEEN. He explained his reason, saying the other choices are individuals, while SEVENTEEN was the only group. Because of that, he selected SEVENTEN as a last resort.

Later on, 2NE1's Sandara Park revealed she was upset by his answers but stated she understood that he answered for the sake of entertainment. She also stressed that BIGBANG and 2NE1 are close, like siblings.
