Fans: "Please don't be scared to announce that you're dating, we'll support you no matter what!" Also fans:

The Hyunjin hate is something I will never understand. I’m glad JYPE did (edit: or will do) something about it legally, though.

No more apologizes for dating, it's pathetic. Idols to be free, have a personal life, love and live your lives happily

Hyunjin, Karina, RIIZE... These knets are getting more and more vicious I mean they can't even breathe without getting some kind of backlash smh

I’m actually thankful for JYP to take actions on hyunjins scandal, this time and the last time.

Why can’t no one leave the poor Hyunjin alone 🤬😠 I hate the people who did this

The whole hate against Hyunjin and Rizze is simply unbelievable and disgusting.

It's clear why they attack Rizze. They've seen that Seunghan has already been forced to take a break and maybe kicked out of the group because of his dating scandal. Now all the anti fans/ Fans from other boygroups see that it works and try to throw out the 3 other members so that Rizze disbands.

Hyunjin is sweet, shy and quiet. I feel bad for him having to stand so many rumors and injustices!

Wdym haters want Hyunjin to leave skz? What in the 2020 is going on?! P.s.....wtf is wrong with these people? Someone made a false post and netizens went and said oh it hyunjin and now they're hating on him for a FALSE rumor? W jyp for going after these losers who have nothing better to do I am sick and tired of people going after Hyunjin when he didnt do anything.

Can't believe people are still hating on hyunjin hw many yrs has it been pple need to grow up

Omg why can’t people just get out of idols dating lives. If it’s an ex leave it alone they don’t need to be brought up again. If they are dating stop being delusional and just accept it and continue to support them for finding some happiness.

"It's really interesting how idols get praised left & right, but the second they get involved in a scandal or do anything that netizens don't like suddenly, they're the most untalented, annoying person ever." Truest thing ever said.

I am glad that how JYP reacted immediately......... It shows that unlike SM, they care for their artists....

If hyunjin disbands I’m disbanding my life 😍 Edit : Humor is Humor yall

SM putting Seunghan on hiatus basically let the Antis win. This action just emboldened these antis so I’m not surprised the entire group are now targets. SM needs to crack down on these questionable delulu fans/antis.

JYP would never kick Hyunjin out that easily lmao he's literally one of the company's biggest revenue source.

Imagine all idols simultaneously announcing that they are dating/in relationships.....

People dating. Is not a scandal.

riize is such a good and talented group. i’m mad that every time they are talked about it’s about something bad or about seunghan being kicked out for dating which is STUPID.

Ladies and Gentlemen I present to u " KPOP " 👏

Idols not being able to breathe from all this hate because of something normal that they do, is just insane..

The Hyunjin one is not by "Fans. The truck was send by felix akgaes they just hate hyunjin like crazy and this isnt their first time doing this. And the truck didnt even spend many hours infront of jype before that hyunjin china fans send a truck replacing the akgae truck with full positive messages and within yesterday and today kstays also send truck to jype showering hyun with love‼️

Whoever is accusing Hyunjin for something he didn't do you should be ashamed like nah that ain't fair at all. Just watch JYPE will have your head. You don't have any proof that was him. Don't just point fingers because you hate someone. If you don't like Hyunjin just leave him alone, you're wasting your time Hyunjin is never gonna leave SKZ

Kpop industry: Step 1: Let's create the most attractive people alive. Do everything to make them sexy and wanted. Step 2: Forbid dating for them. Step 3: Make them apologies when someone produces fake news about their love life.

It's long overdue time for the record companies to protect the K-Pop idols. It is total madness for fans to have control over their personal lives. It's time to stop it. Idols have every right to be happy and date. They are humans 1st just like us and need to live a happy and normal life of dating. ❤🎉

I feel so bad for Riize boys😢

The hate that SM groups get is insane

Honestly screw this all, im omw to start a protest trucks company rn because all the toxic kpop stans gonna make me a millionaire if it continues like that

Good on JYPE for sending an official statement right away, maybe they could school, the oldest agency, SM on how to handle artist controversy?

Knets: we don’t believe you Anton you hate us Knets as well: why are you making us look crazy?

Why is it always Hyunjin? Like leave him alone ... literally before his birthday he's getting hate demands to leave the group....I'm sorry Hyunjin, I'll try my best to support you

Damn, the 6 members, especially Eunseok, Sohee, and Anton, must feel extra bad for Seunghan rn, while Seunghan is probably getting triggered by all these nonsense again. I have a feeling SM is preparing to bring him back and some force created these rumors to impede them. Maybe this hater is an insider that has it for Riize.

Okay,, since RIIZE has been getting this much backlash,, and as a BRIIZE, I do NOT endorse it at all… I want our Seunghan back… it looks like any member can get “bullied” by these k-netz and international fans are not having it…. All members can get “sued” and maliciously blamed… SM this is your sign to reunite Seunghan to them… because ANY MEMBER unfortunately can just get criticized for simply doing nothing … these fans are toxic,, and its so unfortunate how we the international fans have to keep them accountable bc they keep spreading bad rumors…. Please SM listen to the international fans.. we truly love our RIIZE, and them being 7 would truly mean the world to us.. RIIZE FIGHTING !! Please keep defending them international BRIIZE 🧡

im so tired of the negativity. its all ridiculous

This is getting out of hand, something has to be done. What if you could only be a fan if you never date or get married.

Seriously, never should you apologize for dating!!!

RIIZE has been in controversy since pre debut and with less than a year under their belt it’s so sad and frustrating that people can’t give them a break and just keep picking and picking at them

I miss seunghan I love rize and I don’t know what to do this is all so crazy

Thank you so much for not calling those HATERS his FANS!! Fans are always OT8 ❤ (also really like all your vids!)

Im not going to lie, Riize isn’t the same without seunghan and will gladly boycott until he’s back!!

Hyunjin is such a sweet and nice person. Like what did he do? He did not desrve the hate

I like that multiple idols are just coming out and not giving af. It’s time they start changing the way they package idols as products. The product should be the music not the person

YESSSSS JYP I LOVE YOUUUUUUUUUUUU FOR DOING THAT ATE

Hyunjin deserves nothing but love ❤ he doesn't deserve all this hate i feel so bad for him i really hope he doesn't have to leave stray kids😭 he's one of my 3 biases in stray kids

I blame the companies for encouraging this! they need to start making statement telling fans its a job to the Idols, they are human beings to & if fans really think they will NOT date for 10+ or more years then they really need a reality check. Pushing this to fans that the idols are accessible is just fantasy in this day & age. Its actually not acceptable in western countries & the fans really need to accept this. I know they sign up to not date for a few years but to be scared to live a normal life incase they get hate & death threats is disgusting. The companies & Idols need to get a back bone.

hyunjin does NOT deserve the hate he gets, he works so hard, its so sad seeing ppl hating him, i cried sm reading the hate posts on twt, i love him sm :(

Riize can’t catch a break😭my first bias, seunghan had to go on hiatus and now my second bias Anton is going through the same thing

Someone/some group/organization is genuinely out to ruin the RIIZE members' careers. Boycott the comeback, report malicious users, and campaign for better treatment for the artists everyone!

Can JYP do their job properly at least once? If hyunjin leaves JYP is gonna go down that’s for sure. Protect hyunjin! Stop ignoring and mistreating hyunjin!

Kfans are seriously delusional. Dating should never be considered a “scandal” and it literally doesn’t even fall under the definition of the word. SM needs to stand up for their artists because all this RIIZE hate needs to stop. When will they ever get it in their heads that bullying can have extreme consequences and that their harsh words can cause someone to exit?? SM needs to protect their artists. Also, how they hell did they just randomly choose to accuse Hyunjin when he literally had zero interaction or involvement with anything?? Do they not know that defamation is literally ILLEGAL?! Hyunjin has been through enough bs already and doesn’t need any extra drama or stress from delusional “fans”.

ASKING FOR HYUNJIN TO LEAVE THE GROUP IS SOOOOO STUPID AND INSANE!!!! THOSE PEOPLE THAT SPREAD FALSE INFORMNATION NEED TO GO TO PRISON!!!!

IDOLS ARE HUMANS WITH FEELINGS TOO!! WHY CANT THEY BE ALLOWED TO DATE OTHER PEOPLE?! this hurts my heart so much... 💔

Dating is NOT A SCANDAL in the first place. Haters will be haters. RIIZE 💚💚💚 I love your music!

Omg let’s all hope n pray these young men find someone they can love n spend their life with ❤

guys even if seunghan isnt in the cb doesnt mean we shouldnt support the other members

I really pity RIIZE, I've known this group more for their scandals than for their work. I've never seen a rookie group being dragged so much into controversies right from debut throughout each week without a pause. The fact that SM gave netizens the power to decide the fate of its artists to the point, that now netizens are trying it out on new groups such as Aespa and Stray Kids. I really see no wonder why real fans have decided to boycott everything altogether despite the big risk of the group possibly disbanding.

So they can hold live for these silly rumors, but not for SEUNGHAN

The whole matching couple outfits/jewelry thing always creeped me out, like why do you look for those things it’s giving stalker

JYPE isn't going to do anything i fear... SKZ and Hyunjin have faced defamation, cyber-bullying, have been accused of actual SERIOUS crimes across the span of 3 years, and JYPE didn't do ANYTHING. Instead they made him apologise for things he didn't do. They also posted this announcement on every JYPE artists' accounts, even though Stray Kids and Hyunjin are getting the most hate. May I also add that the hate Hyunjin is getting rn comes from Felix solo fans.. How ridiculous... they clearly don't care about Felix or the other members if they want Hyunjin to leave. Stray Kids will remain 8 forever.

It is getting downright scary just how bold these knetizens are, they think they OWN the idols smdh. Im so sick of it. Im so glad JYP is actually stepping up and fighting back, big time. I cant wait to see the outcome. And SM is doing better too, still need to bring Seunghan back though.

Don't know if people think by ruining Hyunjin's career their favs can become any more popular. Why don't they just support their faves and leave Hyunjin alone?

i dont mind boycotting honestly, seunghan left unjustified and deserves to be defended when he cant defend himself. sure it'll be sad for the current members...but they've got 6 to 5 years left to get over it?! seunghan may have NONE

2:40 Man I really hope this “scandal” won’t ruin Anton’s friendships :/ I mean it must be so hard to see your childhood friends get hated on “because of you” like man I hope he doesn’t blame himself:((

i always think about what do protest trucks drivers think about the messages written on them lol

I wish these idols would tell these fans flat out, it's none of your business if we are dating. They shouldn't have to apologize for being human beings. They owe them nothing.

😂these videos are hilarious as usual! teenagers so preoccupied with those performers life on the Internet and out there! They are enthusiastic with the perfect image that it's shown to them and when that fails they begin to see the cracks.

I do think that sometimes it is important to take a step back and a break even from the things we love. I cut myself off from kpop for just over 2 years when we lost Jonghyun. I was devastated. This all-consuming environment can be a bit much and it is a pretty self-contained bubble. The break helped me gain a more mature perspective on the kpop fandom in general and I came back during the pandemic (admittedly because I needed the distraction) feeling hopeful and with a new outlook. Even though there hasn't been one big event effecting me, I'm definitely feeling more negatives than positives from the fandoms/news recently. It has become very tiring and frustrating and I feel as if I'm constantly being baited into reacting to all of this negativity. I think I'll go back to enjoying the music on my own for a little while 👋 Remember to take a break if you need to as well!

It's batshit crazy tho think that some of the riize members have some stupid controversy and they didn't got any hiatus treatment while seunghan controversy was not that far from his members got him immediately locked up in the basement dude is one of the strongest dancer in the group dude and he miss a lot of special performances, dude deserves better.

There’s so much toxicity in kpop anymore I don’t even want to listen much anymore because of the distractions around it. Imagine having to apologize for dating! It’s the weird ones who think they stand a chance and act like their in a relationship with the idol. Get therapy!

And once again, South Korea it's not a real place 🗿 because all these ridiculous people making a big fuss for a man dating someone who's not involved in a crime or felony it's just surreal

Thank you it’s ok hyunjin don’t worry we will protect and support you and be by your side always and for the other members too don’t worry hopefully soon jyp will stop this all and you don’t have to go through hate we love you our dumpling I hope hyunjin stops getting bate

After watching this, I feel deflated 😂😂 the amount of scandals I’ve seen, man… I feel for these idols. They can’t catch a break 😮‍💨

This is all terrible to hear. Stray Kids were already sad with Woojin leaving and now people are telling JYP to remove Hyunjin from the group when he did nothing to deserve all this hate! In my personal opinion, if Hyunjin does leave the group, Stray Kids would disband earlier then next year because of these rumors. All STAYs are probably so thankful to hear that JYP is taking care of the problem legally. As in for the dating rumors, I feel like Anton, Eunsok, and Sohee should not be apologizing about the dating rumors. Their friends shouldn't have posted apologies when they did nothing wrong! Same thing, dating shouldn't be much of a surprise in K-Pop since they are all grown women/men that just want their lives to be free and normal. They all did choose this path as a K-Pop idol, but I feel like they are starting to get uncomfortable for people starting to find private photos, info, etc. about them hanging out with their friends which are now considered girlfriends/boyfriends. Netizens should really learn how to not make and spread these rumors about K-Pop idols. All these problems netizens are creating can lead to some really bad and serious stuff as in K-Pop idols going on hiatus for more than 1 month. I think this is stupid and unmature. Dating should be normalized in K-Pop (in my opinion) because most of these K-Pop idols are grown women/men. They should have freedom with their own personal lives as in dating, family, friends, etc., which is what netizens are not allowing them to do. (Sorry if I seem like I'm hating on this, I am just in such disbelief about all this.) (I feel so proud of myself on writing this because I just typed all this without thinking.)

Why can’t people just leave RIIZE alone! I feel like I hear news about them everyday.

It’s sad because SM is not helping

OMG I feel so bad for Hyunjin people can't do this to him...I'm sure he is stressed out by this hole situation. I pray it would get over soon and I very much hope he would stay with STZ he is a true artist I love him.

3:10 tbh I don’t think he’s coming back, and even if he will, he’ll probably leave riize like Lucas did, just to not “make things worse” with riize (which is absolutely outrageous) but I really wish SM would step up for once and protect him, I mean they are apparently not doing enough :/

ok even if they rly ARE dating, why do the fans have to hate him? Cause when other idols date the fans get excited and happy, why not now? Its not like the fans are dating that person so why do they care? Leave the idols in peace!

An idol IS a human being and SHOULD be treated like one.Who are these so called 'fans' that make their own idols look like punching bags? There are a lot of such toxic freaks nowadays who just exist to 'cancel' idols over petty issues so much so that the situation is getting quite out of hand.

It’s sad that fans can’t accept their idols to have and live a normal life. I truly believe that some fans are the cause of a lot of the sadness and depression that happens to these idols. A true fan supports and stands behind the happiness of their idols. Apparently, a lot of fans don’t know the meaning it’s so sad.

I will never forgive the people who did these things to hyunjin & riize members. 😡😡

This is getting insane. Why are people so obsessed with Riize dating? Let them live. And SM is doing nothing. They are honestly a shit company.

God knows how far can fan service go

bro what they making up fake ass rumors for no reason like hyunjin wouldn’t do some shit like that and even if he was dating someone so is that ur business though like is it a crime for k-pop idols to date people this is fucking ridiculous smh..

I'm glad JYPE is taking action to protect Hyunjin so quickly unlike SM, It's sad how fans say: "We'll support you no matter what!" Now this happens to Hyunjin as well as what's happening to Riize, It's crazy but not surprising how fast fans switch up as soon as a scandal happens. Dear god, I hope the Riize members and Hyunjin and anyone else getting hate is okay or will be.💜💜

The Kpop industry be always popping off ❤

Hyunjin is innocent. Haters are doing that because they are jealous of stray kids success its plan before to harm their image. Stray kid's bond is so strong they love each other ❣️ No one harm stray kids until stay are there. Stay are here to protect them as 8 stray kids. So no worries. #Another truck is also there to support stray kids and hyunjin #

Even the person who takes the messages admitted it was fake... But NOPE! Antis will always find a reason to say Hyunjin is in the wrong because they hate seeing people succeed.

Does this Han Seohee never sleep or smth, she's fking everywhere...

I hope hyunjin's fine. Skz as whole, too 🥲 Sending love to our boys❤

People really need to leave RIIZE alone and stop trying to take them down, these roomers are just ridiculous.. look what happened to Seunghan he barely debuted and got removed because of past mistakes and was horribly dragged by the fans and SM handle the situation horribly as usual. At some point roomers just shouldn’t be acknowledged like how childish can these so called fans be??

God idols can even breath it's so sad how the fans say fake statements about the idols they supposedly support I wish one day the company's can protect better the idols

It's really disgusting that idols have to apologize for just dating. Why is it so hard to let them be happy?

Idols are human -beings and should aloud to date with no issues! This is nuts...Celebrities (In general) date to wtf!

Finally jyp is helpful for once.

"we've made up three false rumors, why wont jyp get rid of this member we hate?" like... there is no expulsion because he literally hasn't done anything.

Seunghan being put on hiatus for being bullied, while SM puts out a really quite aggressive statement “defending” other RIIZE members? 🧐 SM is so awful. Hyunjin is a sweet & wonderful human who deserves absolutely none of the hate he’s had to deal with. I’m glad JYPE is acting swiftly. It feels like Bang Chan would approve of JYPE’s actions, which is a good thing.

The only reasoning I can find regarding Hyunjin's hate is the haters are so jealous, so damn pathetic knowing they will never accomplish a single thing outside transforming Oxygen into Co2 that they need to hate just to feel better.

Tbh everytime i hear something abt a kpop idol dating someone i js laugh bc ik its not gonna last like you knet need to calm down bc yk when yall say something abt it they break up instantly. Just let them be bc if you were a kpop idol and you had to go thru this then you would have been acting like the victim and crying...but me if i was a kpop idol i would record myself saying that i can do whatever i want bc i am a grown woman and i get paid for so....
