Netizens have speculated on the authenticity of the sighting, drawing comparisons between the individual in the footage and Seunghan based on distinctive features such as earrings and an identifiable Adam's apple.
Here is the response that online users have given to this discovery in a discussion thread.
"sm is a company that really doesn't care about their artists. I feel so bad for seunghan, he seems so sweet and genuinely cares for his fans to the point of going to the subway station and seeing the messages fans left for him. i hope it doesn't take too long for him to return to the group, he is talented, knows how to dance, and sings very well. i hope when he comes back, he has all the support in the world. there are many k-fans who support him and let's not just look at pan-nate when we know that this site is full of riize haters."
"he has to be mentally strong to be in a hiatus while getting comments asking him to leave. i'm just glad he knows he still has support"
"I hope he can come back soon It seems like the members support him too"
"Briize is so supportive, even though they're just a small and new fandom. In 4 months, they have organized so many projects that you can't even imagine. It's my first time seeing such a supportive fandom for a rookie, and I'm proud of them."
"There were a lot of encouraging words for Seunghan. It's good to see how he reads them."
Meanwhile, RIIZE faced criticism for allegedly disrespecting senior artist Yoon Sang, who is also a member's father. A GIF showed them greeting him with minimal respect.
