Super Junior’s Siwon Faces Controversy Over Right-Wing Support
Super Junior’s Siwon is in hot water after publicly supporting controversial figure Charlie Kirk, who was killed at an event on September 10. The backlash erupted as many fans criticized Siwon’s message of condolence and his defense of Kirk’s divisive views.
Siwon took to Instagram to express his condolences, but his stance has drawn ire from fans and the public. Critics are calling Siwon out for glorifying a figure known for anti-queer, anti-Muslim, and anti-Palestinian comments.
As reactions intensified, some Super Junior members appear to be distancing themselves from Siwon. Reports indicate that Leeteuk and Yesung unfollowed Siwon on Instagram, raising alarms about potential internal conflict within the group. Fans are speculating that these actions indicate disapproval of Siwon’s recent behavior.
The hashtag #Siwon_Out is trending as fans demand his removal from the group. Petitions for his exit have also started circulating online, with many fans calling for a “black ocean” — a show of silence — during his stage time.
Here’s what fans are saying
“I couldn’t care less. He does not care that he glorified a MAGA Zionist who hated queer, Muslim and Palestinian people. He couldn’t care less about how much he hurts SJ’s reputation.” – @siwonout
“LEETEUK AND YESUNG JUST UNFOLLOWED THIS MF I LOVE THEM SO MUCH” – @isnuwu
The situation is evolving, and fans will be closely monitoring how it affects Siwon and Super Junior moving forward.
