Kwon Eunbi is facing backlash after a Western comedian’s controversial tweets about her viral WATERBOMB performance.
The idol caught attention with her sexy performance at WATERBOMB 2025, sparking divided reactions online. Clips and photos went viral, with Eunbi sharing some on her social media.
Comedian Lewis Spears reacted to the videos by tweeting, "Pop star with huge natural rack is haunting my feed, I can’t escape." He followed up with a tweet showing himself and added, "Kwon, if you’re reading this, I am 6’8," referring to his height.
