THE BOYZ’s Juyeon Faces Backlash Over Instagram Post
Juyeon, a member of THE BOYZ, is at the center of controversy after his recent Instagram story caused political speculation. The post, featuring a song by artist girl in red, was uploaded earlier this week but was swiftly deleted amid escalating online debates.
While the track contains no overt political references, netizens speculated that including "red" in the artist’s name may hint at support for South Korea’s conservative party during this sensitive election period.
This isn’t Juyeon’s first run-in with political allegations. Last year, he faced scrutiny for using a Bubble profile picture in a red jacket, which some interpreted politically. He later clarified that the choice was unintentional.
The Twitter community reacted quickly. A Pann post discussing the deletion garnered over 87,000 views in just hours, making the situation hotter than ever.
Responses varied:
“People aren’t criticizing him because no one knows who he is lol”
“This is way overblown. It’s not even a song title… it’s literally the name of a group;;”
The swift deletion suggests attempts to avoid backlash. Juyeon’s situation parallels aespa’s Karina, who faced her own controversy recently for a similar red-themed outfit linked to conservative candidate Kim Moon Soo, leading to public apologies.
As Juyeon’s situation unfolds, fans and critics alike are monitoring the developing story.
