KISS OF LIFE is facing backlash over a backstage clip that raised eyebrows online.
In the video, member Belle asked for a Screw Bar ice cream and explained it tastes best spun while eating. With her hands busy, a female staffer fed and rotated the ice cream for her.
However, fellow member Natty was not happy about the moment being filmed. She requested an emoji or blur over the clip, worrying it could be sexualized by viewers. Belle also asked for the same censorship.
The clip made its way to online forums, where netizens debated the staff’s decision to include it and add a mosaic censor. Many felt the blur drew unnecessary attention and made the innocent moment look “weirder” or suggestive.
“They were just messing around, but the mosaic made it look weirder than it actually was. KIOF members are always joking with each other.”
“It was just a playful moment, but the mosaic made it look strange.”
“If she had eaten it with her own hands, it probably wouldn’t have looked so weird, but since someone else was holding the Screw Bar and she was sucking on it like that, it did come off a bit strange… Plus, the fact that they asked for it to be blurred out because they thought it might look weird too, and then the mosaic actually makes people think about it that way even more.”
Fans remain divided as the controversy gains traction online, questioning the line between playful content and over-censorship.
