#RIIZE Seunghan Scandal & Indefinite Hiatus
1 messages · Page 2 of 1
Me too
He is already off the Instagram again
…….
I just don’t understand
They had to have known there would be backlash so why?
If anyone has better translations feel free to share them I just used an app I have
I hope Seunghan is ok
The amount of hate he got returning is…
Like the fact Wonbin even spoke out and stood up for him
WHATTTTTTTTTTTT!!??
I’m getting really angry right now
Me too
Another win for the crazy fans.
I’m pissed
This is just gonna mean those antis know now they have power to remove whoever they want too
No they can kick rocks all of them idc
Exactly!! When are they gonna put their foot down??
I’m tired of these bs
I hope Seunghan has a lot of support around him through this
They’re just messing around with young people’s careers and mental health atp
I’m just ready to fight-
He was JUST announced to come back and he is already leaving. I freaking HATE those ot6 Briize
Yeah
Can we just be happy for him when he was coming back because I waited the ENTIRE time he was on hiatus just for him to be announced to come back then 2 days later leave😭
Like have we not learned from those we’ve lost. But honestly those antis don’t care as much as they will claim they care about mental health
Im so just beyond angry I can’t even
For real
They are bullies. Like he did absolutely nothing wrong for him to be treated this way
Like the “we don’t want a drunkard” comment I still can’t get over like
As if drinking isn’t a part of South Korean culture and I’m like as long as he was of age and responsible
it’s wrong and horrible in so many ways. and I don’t blame you for wanting to step back. Sending you hugs. 
WE ARE TIRED-
Same
I AM SO MAD WHAT THE HELL
I honestly just wish this was a horrible dream
I hope he doesn’t think the hate Wonbin was getting for sticking up for him was his fault
WHY????????
SOMEONE PLEASE PAY ATTENTION TO THAT BOY'S MENTAL HEALTH
Like I was SO happy that he was announced to join again because he was my bias. But because these "fans" were still butt hurt that he dated before debut and drank and smoked they had to basically bully him out of the group. What about his mental health and the memebers mental health because I'm sure that this is affecting ALL of the memebers

sigh
SM is a joke. They're terrible at handling scandal or anything negative that comes their way and they don't ever learn
I can’t STAND IT HEREEEE
I’d be sad but I would not blame him if he doesn’t redebut as a soloist or in another group or anything
Of course I’ll support him if he does
I agree. I am honestly going to need to take some time away from the group as a whole even though I love them so dearly. But because of these so called fans I just don't think I can do it anymore
Because OT6 fans are so "pure" and they "never thought of dating"
Sm just signed riize's death sentence
Unfortunately I feel this way
Yeah
Like I even saw someone on weverse compare him to Taeil
At least with international fans I feel
I wouldnt blame him if he decided to take another path in life
??????
Ok that is wth
That person needs banned from all social media
Seunghan literally did nothing wrong
No stop comparing him to that guy wth
Comparing him to a literal criminal
Making something criminal is completely different from being a teenager!!!!
I’m honestly thinking of leaving the K-pop community I can’t stand this anymore
oh hell no, that's why we can't have nice things
Idk if i can leave k-pop altogether but as of right now, I don’t want to support anything from sm. The only exception would be sm artists who left the company (i.e, Donghae and Eunhyuk, Taemin and Onew, CBX, Jessica, etc.)
people are disgusting
Yeah I don’t think I can completely leave k-pop but I’m seriously just…
atp i'll still support the boys, bc they'll need it after this punch in the gut
But at the same time I don’t blame anyone who wants to leave or take a break. I’m gonna take a break from k-pop but mostly from sm.
Because how can sm be so complacent and indirectly allow this type of behavior
Yeah. I need to take a break from SM altogether right now even though I love so many artists from that company. I just can't support what they did to the memebers and to the fans. Like they are fine with pleasing the fans who freaking bullied him out of the group but not the ones who have been waiting for his return. It just doesn't make any sense
Yeah I’ll def be taking a break from anything SM
and i'll also support them, ALL of them out of sheer spite
so let me summarize, SM put seunghan on hiatus, brought him back yesterday, fans went on a protest and now he's gone from riize, ye?
What the heck
I am sorry but I can’t support Riize anymore
Like it’s so unfair to Seunghan and the fans who have been waiting for him forever
Yeah
It just doesn’t sit well with me
And the members as well such as Wonbin who has shown support and wanted him back
Like how are they gonna have to pretend to be happy and cutesy to the monsters who made their friend give up and leave the group
Exactly like the boys fought for him to come back and now have to go back to pretending he doesn’t exist
It’s so…
It’s ridiculous and disappointing that a whole company is just giving into the harassment of a bunch of random nobodies
Because that’s exactly what they are, they’re not fans; they’re just sad, pathetic little cretins who have nothing better to do than spread their misery out to people who don’t deserve it
idk if y'all agree, but i'll honestly going to keep supporting riize because those boys deserve all the support and all the kindness in this world after the gut punch they received today, and i'll defend them and fight tooth and nail for them, since their goddamn company can't do it, i'll do it
It’s up to your own preference
Whether you decide to continue to support riize or not is completely fine and up to you. Personally I just don’t feel comfortable supporting them at this time. It’s not none of the members’ fault that the self-proclaimed fans (specifically the ones who were sending hate and harassing the group during this time) bullied Seunghan out of the group. So I’m just saying personally that I’m taking a break from riize until I feel comfortable enough to support them again. I personally feel guilty supporting them at this time because I feel like I didn’t do enough for them. But if anyone wishes to continue to support them, I want everyone to know that you are not in the wrong. It’s the people who harass and bully Seunghan and the members who are in the wrong.
i honestly kinda feel the same, but i'll keep supporting them because i feel so guilty for not fighting for them and doing enough to help, and leaving would feel like turning my back on them, after all the pain they've gone through .
My old bones have brought me here: If you guys still like k-pop. Stay. This is a terrible situation, it won't be the first or last time it's happened. It is the first time I've seen SM fold to fan pressure to this degree from something like this. I think, and believe, it wasn't just the anti's that contributed to him leaving. Because both sides, for and against his return, were protesting. At the same time. I said this before: they were too young to have the controversy and be okay in the long run. Protest did and will continue to affect them.
Having said that it is fine to take a break from a group or from a company or kpop is fine and you shouldn't feel guilty about it. At the end of the day, not a single person should try to shoulder all the blame.
Damn...i thought of stanning them now because their songs are so good (like their made for commercial success) and seeing their decision of bringing seunghan back made me really happy...
This may sound very rude... But if sm wants to listen to the deranged kfans... Then so be it... I have no interest in giving time, energy and money to the group and global ot7 fans also shouldnt imo... If they don't care about us then why should we care about giving sm any form of monetary value tbh....
WHAT 😭😭 i’m so pissed rn omg
tbh I had interest in getting into them bcs the songs I listened are bangers but after this whole situation I think I'll stay in distance with them 😐
If these companies can’t even do the bare minimum in protecting their artists why should I waste my mental health and wallet?
yeah agreed, I had the angle of getting into them but that angle has vanished, sry to all the briizes that wanted to spread the agenda but the agenda is just from now on immune on me
I genuinely don’t know how to feel right now. All I know is that I don’t want to be a briize right now and I feel so bad for the members for having a fandom like this
agreed with that, I saw that the intl fans were mega happy with him being back only for the group to slam it down with the announcement. All of it was because of who? The domestic "fans" (I'd say the I (i) word but I don't think mods will accept it). They didn't even listen to the happiness of intl fans but instead they saw the domestic fans putting wraths or however you spell that funeral accessory and were like yep, domestic matters more
This cannot be serious we just got him back
Apparently now they are going after Sungchan, Sohee, and Eunseok
At this point they want riize to not even exist
Basically
Like what the heck is in their minds thinking that mhm let's remove half of the lineup because we have no life/probably haters
Literally
They claimed they were ot6 yet how is that ot6 to now be hating on Wonbin, Sungchan, Eunseok, and Sohee
idk why they can't just say they're antis and save us some grief
they're already losing a lot of international fans... it sucks for the other 6 but at the same time it's nice seeing the vast majority of int briizes supporting seunghan
but also wtf SM?? 😭😭
why even promote a group to the west if you're gonna end up pulling smth like this anyways
like obv Kpop is Korean so at its core they should cater to their domestic fanbase but if you're promoting a group internationally then what's the point if your not gonna listen to those international fans?
i didnt know we were picking and choosing who we were hating what
ik antis are antis and the reason they do things like this are nonexistant but with what basis are they targetting them 💀
At this point why are u even stanning the group 😭
i'm not good at organising my thoughts but i need to rant because i can't stand this 😭 sawry this is gonna be long
I HATE SM
this is all honestly just so infuriating. from the beginning, the hiatus should've never happened in the first place!!! it's so ridiculous that a company like sm won't step up to protect their own artist. instead of taking actions against those who invaded his privacy, he's the one being punished???
seunghan had nothing to "reflect on" because HE DIDN'T DO ANYTHING WRONG. these 'fans' don't see idols as real humans and it's just so disgusting. what's even worse that instead of protecting their artists from this invasion of privacy and blatant bullying, SM CONTINUES TO ENABLE THESE FREAK SO CALLED FANS. it's terrifying how much power they let them have??
the only reason seunghan should've ever been on hiatus was to protect his mental health, not because of this nonsensical 'scandal'. time and time again, sm has shown that they don't truly care about their artists' well-being. they literally had what 11 months to handle this, but it's like they just chose to let the toxic fans win. why play with everyone by announcing he's back just for him to leave 2 days later. they KNEW what the backlash would be like. it just doesn't make sense.
it's heartbreaking to think that it got so bad for seunghan that he felt like he had to leave the group. instead of reassuring him and supporting him, sm's priority was to please these toxic kfans. they had months to prepare, we all wanted him back: seunghan, his members, the real fans- everyone was ready to support him, riize literally gained thousands of followers, even non-fans were ready to tune in.
wonbin literally stood up for him all his members wanted him back :( it hurts how the members now have to carry on, pretending like seunghan doesn't exist + continue facing these kfans who literally bullied their friend out of the group. it’s painful enough as a fan and i can’t even imagine how it feels for seunghan and the rest of the group. they deserve so much better.
also, how JOBLESS and DERANGED do you have to be to spend your own money on funeral wreaths for a kpop idol living a normal teenage life?? how do you have this much hatred?? it’s one thing to have these gross beliefs but to then act on it like this. it’s vile. these ot6 freaks can kick ROCKS. i genuinely hope seunghan is doing ok and has a good support system around him, i can’t imagine how it feels for him to walk by + see all of this :(( idk how to feel this just sucks
:(((

seunchan having to leave makes me sooo sad he just came back and now he left the antis can kick rocks for the rest of there lives and sm can burn they arent a good company they cant even protect any of there artist i depise you sm
I see a lot of people at least online saying that they are going to boycott riize because of this
They have even lost followers on insta. They were at 4.1 million earlier today and now they are at 4 million
if you guys want a name to blame. Tak Young-Jun, the COO of SM entertainment. He's the director of Riize and likey had a lot of say so over everything that happened this past year.
I can even scroll through twitter. This is depressing.
same bri 2 .it really is
The entire situation is just horrid. Like at the end of the day idols are HUMAN! They don’t owe you [and a lot of times not even] anything except for what’s stated in their contracts. This whole mob mentality that’s our person bull crap has gotta go! These are peoples dreams peoples lively hoods! And we don’t know the mental state of these people!
THIS! Like I can’t even imagine the mental role this all has on not only on him but his family and the rest of the group and their families
I legit cried earlier today because of all of this. I wasn’t angry nor surprised. Just sad and disappointed that people are actually like this.
I’m happy to see all the other kpop fandoms speaking up in defense of Seunghan cause unfortunately what happened today to Seunghan could happen to another member of another group tomorrow SM has set kpop standards back so far and has opened a gate that is gonna be scary
Yeah
The fact that they still are sending and replacing the riize is 6 wreaths and banners that true fans are destroying is…
like they already got what they wanted this is just extreme

Warning for this video there is explicit language
Also contains profanity
Caitlin made two more post on her ig story.
please censor cursing every chance you can specially the screenshots where these words are avoidable
A announcement from Riize discord server... This is a server of 4000+ members
They are shutting down the server
I know this won't really do much but there is a petition for Seunghan to join the group again
People have to realized is that it’s up to him if wants to come back after what happened. I think we should value his mental health at the moment.
Yeah I 100% agree
I honestly feel so bad for the memebers
Please refrain from sharing messages in this server that has profanity. I know y'all want to share all of the messages and what have you but we kindly ask that you please censor the profanity in the pictures/screenshots before sharing it in the server.
They're now targeting sohee... Someone just took a picture of him ||smoking|| after he came back to korea
Further context
He’s seems to be not ||smoking||. He’s holding a paper cup. The antis are trying to frame it that he was ||smoking||...
Riize haters have been trying to drag them for literally anything , and this poor attempt using a terrible photo that you can’t see anything clearly is one of those things.
It looks like whoever took that photo of Sohee clearly does not respect the privacy of the members which is deeply disturbing in my opinion
idk whats more concerning the fact that antis are willing to harm the other members in the process or the fact that they practically waited to jump sohee for smth that he wasnt doing just to prove a so called point
They also are jumping Eunseok
And Sungchan and Wonbin and just
At this point they hate all of riize
This is trending still 
funny how I know what that says 😂
Oh my god it gets worse....
RIIZE is performing in MAMA awards and they are in the US lineup....
I can't... I can just laugh at this situation
SM's stock is dropping quite a bit because international fans are boycotting everything from SM right now
I giggled
pretends to be shocked this is not that surprising unfortunately
I just realized their performance in America for mama is on Sohee’s bday. But also on the day before or on the day when Seunghan was put on hiatus in the first place
||Another thing that I found is that the day the funeral wreaths were sent to sm fell on the week of Sulli’s 5th anniversary since her passing. So the people who sent those wreaths to threaten Seunghan are even more demonic. ||
I wanted to share this TikTok video
https://www.vxtiktok.com/@jonathanmillermusic/video/7425681541797317930
This is bonkers. #greenscreen #seunghan #seunghanriize #riize #briize #briizefyp #riizeedit #kpop #smentertaiment #riizeseunghan #seunghanedit #riizeis7
I will say, on this, SM'S stock hasn't been able to recover in years. CBX, Teamin, D&E, Red Velvet, they've had very little recovery so this is not just RIIZE fans, though they are now contributing to it .
That’s very true but I also think the recent dip in stocks is no coincidence either
I mean they have lost almost 500k followers across all platforms too
Omg…
Some ot6 apparently went and filmed themselves tearing some of the wall of positive messages for Seunghan…
It’s like thanks for the evidence of how pathetic and evil you are
I saw that as well and a lot of people are calling them out for it
But of course they don’t care because in their eyes they’re the “real” fans-
jobless behavior 👏 maidenless behavior 👏
Last I checked real fans don’t have the mindset of “the other members opinion aren’t important because we pay money”. They respect the boundaries and decisions made by the artist.
⏰ 🫖
That is so evil
They never learn huh.
Get on these celebrities when they’re exposed for ||bullying|| but ||bully|| them constantly in the media. The joke speaks for itself.
I remember they blamed her partner at that time for her passing when they were literally the cause of it. Time and time again they never take accountability for their actions.
They broke up before her passing i think but regardless i remember that and it was so disgusting
The fact that it was actually allowed is disgusting….
This is the user who planned it. The showed how much was spent and how many people was involved. https://x.com/riize_ziip/status/1846205575828500713
Thanks for the evidence idiot. And the that this small number of people is who SM listened to is wow….
I made sure to screen record and archive their whole account before I report them.
Oh yeah several k-pop stores have been making announcements saying that they’re going to stop selling and importing riize’s merchandise (cds, lightsticks, etc.) to show solidarity with the fans who are boycotting SM.
https://vxtwitter.com/subkshop/status/1846334222778167533?s=46
I honestly feel really bad for the boys because they don't deserve any of this since it's not there fault. But I also totally get why people are boycotting because sometimes it's the only way to make things know that fans a HUGE MAJORITY of the fans wanted him to return to the group
People gotta show how stupid SM is for listening to a small group of ||bullies|| instead of hundreds and thousands of fans who wanted him back.
I saw somewhere on Twitter where the person who organized sending the funeral wreaths leaked who pitched in money wise but I can't find it right now. But it was maybe like 20-30 ish people compared to the hundred of thousand of people who want him back in the group
It’s here I posted it.
I linked it here. They were real dumb for that. Like thanks for proving evidence.
Choice Music LA also made a tweet https://vxtwitter.com/choicemusicla/status/1846378603119771797?s=46
I... Is this boycott going to hurt SM or Riize more? Because it looks like only Riize products are getting boycotted.
I ask because This is the status of Riize's stock decrease. The Taeil stuff hit them way worse but they recovered. Riize is such a new group and if SM puts them in the basement that's it.
They can't get out of their contracts for 6 more years, either. There's no grounds for SM to let them out. I get wanting to boycott for Seunghan and I respect it but. IDK. I fear for their futures.
The situation reached the locals…
Profanity. || https://www.tiktok.com/@willie3peat/video/7426097673859632427?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7397644280460985899||
The ||bullies|| are already making plans to ruin the other riize members futures anyways.
They say they love them yet this how they wanna treat them.
The main target of this boycott is to hurt SM; Some stores are refusing to import, restock and order SM albums and most are just doing RIIZE. The only thing though is that not every single sm fandom is getting involved but people are still boycotting sm as just one of many ways to spread awareness and to try and pressure sm.
@silk bone has leveled up! (137 ➜ 138)
This just proves my theory that Seunghan was an example and that they are next. The OT6 is definitely just a facade.
It’s also mainly hurting their international pockets. Since they only ever prove time and time again that they only care for domestic “fans” only. Like at this point again keep them in Korea only. Stop promoting them as a “global” group at this point.
Yeah that’s one of the ways to sum up the boycott
I doubt they will succeed with the other members. The reason Seunghan was so successful because SM was already planting that seed that he was not needed by putting him on haitus for 10 months then erasing his existence from RIIZE content and music. Then add on to the fact that SM didn’t protect him from the start.
That haitus should not have been that long. 2 months would’ve been better but again SM is stupid.
Let’s hope people will actually keep up with the boycott because for some reason international fans suck at it. Koreans stand on business with their boycotts.
Like no wonder companies don’t take us seriously.
Most of the international briizes i've seen on twitter seem pretty serious about it this time around. I don’t equate that to the entire fandom of course but lots of people are talking about it on social media in general and trying to gain traction to the situation. So despite my pessimistic tendencies and etc., I feel a bit optimistic about this. As for me personally, since I went through a similar situation with Wonho, i'm just doing as much as I did back then but for Seunghan.
Same many fans from around the world are joining in heavily so I have some hope.
I saw some Japanese fans in on project to give papers with supportive words on it to give to the members at a fancon.
perhaps they'll understand that international fans are more than just money and as quick we are to give it in sake for our groups, it can also quickly go away if they don't stop treating us like nothing more
I don’t think y’all understand how serious this is like SubK is a HUGE distribution of albums and merch, SM you’re cooked
lmao
Jae i mean eaj i could kiss you i mean i can make brownies for you i mean
https://vxtwitter.com/eajpark/status/1846652383239037152?s=46
The funeral flowers were disgusting. The same people who sent them will be the first ones online mourning the tragic outcome they fought for. God forbid tragedy occurs but I’ve been on that side before and It was close. I can’t imagine the trauma it would cause someone that young
【QRT of VsSugaKookie (@VsSugaKookie):】
'@eaJPark What yo…
Yeah and not just big ones in the us but cokodive and several big foreign ones in other countries are boycotting too
Yeah. Fans are also sending emails to other big company's to participate in the boycott
💀 Honey there’s no point in hiding now people have all the evidence on what you did.
So now they want to claim to do something about the harassment he’s been getting
it’s 100% to “ease everyone” after noticing a certain loss bc of the companies boycotting them and SM in whole. it’s time we all boycott more, they’re noticing the effects and they realized they have effed up.
when nothing HAS been done and only ruined him more
This screams they see how everyone is boycotting RIIZE and wants to try to appease us
what a way for SM to “apologize”
oh, 100%
Well SM this is not appeasing me I’m continuing my boycott
EXACTLY!
the OT6 version 
I reread this I don’t know if it’s super accurate but “Since his debut we have been continuously monitoring malicious posts and comments, including false information, personal attacks, insults, and defamation directed at Seunghan. ” I’m sorry I laughed girl… PLEASE BE SERIOUS! I’m glad people aren’t following for this bs.
Where were you 10 months ago when his privacy was invaded?
they’ve done NOTHING. NOTHING to protect him from the hate, malicious comments, threats and all.
EXACTLY!
“We’ll take legal action” Those are just empty words to me. Yall always say that.
han has been dragged through the mud since before the hiatus and when everything went down. everyone spoke out about it, telling SM to do something to protect him and put him on hiatus, the threats and all STILL occurring and SUDDENLY, NOW they want to mention it again? it’s all bogus, things to say to try to get everyone to stop talking about it
SM is full of lies
I love how they are continuously shooting their own foot
We internacional fans arent dumb... We protect more the artists we care about than the company.
If they think with this statement they are sweeping the mess under the rug... they are definitely wrong, they just put more logs into the fire
Because they did 💩 to protect his privacy and especially his mental health. A boy with 21 years old being allowed to see funeral flower arrangements in front of the company that should protect him, it's wrong in so many levels. Thats isnt protecting sm you only care about the profit
But months later you let Wonbin get attacked for protecting Seunghan… okay.
🧢
Some of the accounts that spread lies and hate now are deleting their posts and trying to act like they didn’t do anything and are innocent
That's disgusting and evil af
If they wanted to be innocent then they should had never post the hate and misinformation posts in the first place
They are now scared of a lawsuit is why they are backtracking
They are honestly pathetic
There’s no point when people have evidence of it. 💀
They are caught in 8k
Like if they say a lie , someone would expose them for lying
In 2002, a member G.O.D left the group because the fans rebelled over the fact he had a girlfriend. 8 days after he was kicked the company announced he came back and reversed their decision. returning to the group after something like this HAS happened. we can't stop now‼️RIIZE7️⃣
I'm just putting this out there because this has happened before so it could happen again. But I honestly don't know if he would even want to come back considering how bad the backlash was against him by K-Netz
Yeah…
Regardless of whether he returns to the group or not, I still think it’s important to:
- Call out SM and hold them accountable for how they handled this situation
- Call out the people who harassed Suenghan and the other members
- Continue spreading awareness about this issue as much as possible.
Can we add 4. Letting Seunghan know that many people actually wanted him to return?
Oh that too of course but that’s just me personally
Today I was in a kpop store in Madrid and their sm albums were all on the shelves untouched
This things is real real
RIIZE have always gave hints and stuff ever since Seunghan’s haitus, this is even more clearer then ever.
There is a protest happening in a little over an hour in front of SM I hope all the Briizes that go stay safe
Yeah I saw they were having problems with getting license to do a lot of projects but I think they are good on the protest
Which is ridiculous that the people sending 1000s of funeral wreaths got the license to do it fine
Some ot6 people actually showed up to the airport for riize with big “Riize is 6” banners…
SM remove and sue them all, this is harassment I don’t care
I'm really getting Riize withdrawls. I genuinely hope they're all okay including seunghan
I saw clips of them today that…
I did too. Why in the world is SM making them still do fan signings at this time?
They are also ranked 13th in voting for mama which means that people are voting for them but definitely not as much as last year since they were in the top 5 ish if my memorie serves me right
Dropped support for this group is working seemingly
Yeah even though some are complaining about the slow drop in followers on their social media, I think that change isn’t going to always be immediate.

The youtuber D’Angelo also talked about the situation on his YouTube channel but i won’t share the link here in this server in case there’s profanity in the video. But he does have a large following so it is good to give it more attention.

Hopefully the people that put these funeral wreaths will get a big punishment because that's not ok what they did
SUE👏THEM👏LOCK👏’EM👏UP👏WHATEVER👏
I figured. Taking about some “This is a part of our culture “. 💀 You people are sick.
i hope they do take action against it bc sm, who is glossing over everything and trying to celebrate 30 years of embarasSMent, clearly won't. (yes i clocked them and you would too-)
The only thing that SM seemingly only cared about the international audience is taking our money
As of a couple of minutes ago the tags on Twitter are still trending
Byyye SM
Anton is so iconic
nothing but respect for my president 🫡
L, and might I add, MAO
This boy deserves to be on a pedestal
You're Not a KPop Fan, You're Just In A Parasocial Relationship...
In today's video, we will deep dive into the dark and toxic world of the kpop fandom and industry, especially the Kpop group RIIZE and member Seughan receiving thousands of funeral flowers as a protest from kpop fans to leave the group RIIZE just for having a relationship. Toxic ...
I am watching this right now, I feel just horrible, it got this bad-
Wait a minute i think i recognize her but i’m glad more and more YouTubers, especially those who aren’t super into k-pop, are talking about this.
Yes-
She does big topics on reality, movies, books
I honestly got use to her by just listening to what she has to say
So many kpop stores around the world are supporting the boycott. I think it's like 200+ but I could be mistaken
Yes over 200+ stores are supporting the boycott
I am here for it. I feel a little bad for not supporting the memebers since I have been a fan since predebut but sometimes these kinds of things need to happen in order to make our voices known to this company
I share the same sentiments as you

While I believe fans have the freedom to voice their opinions, using funeral wreath protests to insult and mock someone’s character is clearly a violation of human rights. The https://t.co/8la78CUlYI

I'm going to watch his video in a bit but I really like his content and his take on things
He does tend to swear so if you are watching him for the first time be ware of that
I want to see how OT6 Stan’s will now feel when they’re being exposed online and even the news in Korea has even called them out
Guys, last time they tried to do the same to Suga but since knowing ARMYS are very powerful and the so called fans were being called out and humiliated publicly, ARMYS immediately had the wreaths removed even the person guarding them left seeing that
The haters messed with the wrong fandom
Those people don’t care because “they spend money” and “the other members opinion don’t matter” add on to the fact that SM ain’t do nothing from the beginning.
That’s the thing, no wonder now that Riize has started ignoring their fans both China and Korea recently, they even left a space for Seunghan on one of their performances
I also saw that SM stocks tanked following the boycott
I hope it works very well
I wanted to share this here but global BRIIZE are working with a legal representative and will deliver a letter asking for Seunghan's return with the signatures from the online petition to the ministry of labor, the national human rights commission and yes, that stupid smelly pink kwangya building
https://vxtwitter.com/ddalgial9041/status/1853761683065307617?s=61
so gross
the only thing that's worrying me about all these petitions and everything else is that maybe he doesn't actually want to come back. after everything that's happened i wouldn't blame him, his mental health is probably so low that he might just want to move on and try to forget about it instead of risking continuous hate for himself and his group after being reinstated
||Is it bad that this didn’t make me flinch||
https://vxtwitter.com/smtownglobal/status/1857257228744749274?s=61
its... not bad... but whats the difference between putting him in riize and making him a solo artist atp
idk if they were trying to divert the attention away from riize so they made him a solo artist but its still gonna follow considering lots of ot6 fans arent even ot6 anymore 😭
It's ot1 at this point-
idk i just wish the best for seunghan bc atp idc if he stays in the industry i just want him to be mentally and phsyically healthy
its been way too long of a year for him
I want him to be protected and not have to keep going through this back and forth with that pink company
bye bc why is this so true
in all honesty I wanna be happy about this news but like i still have so much frustrations with sm
same its a little more bittersweet than i expected
||Also tell me why some fans are speculating that the photos on his IG are from the riize season greetings- ||
It's like we are getting Seunghan back but not in the way we wanted. Like I'm still going to support him but he suited RIIZE so much. I freaking hate OT6 fans
I am genuinely crying because I wanted him back with RIIZE so bad but it was all ruined by less than 200 people
I honestly really wanted him to just leave SM.
I want them all to leave sm and pull a loona i'm so serious
i have to be honest I'm not happy about this at all
I’ve been seeing a lot of people on social media saying that they will be continuing to boycott Riize but they will be supporting Seunghan’s solo debut. I understand why many briize want to support Seunghan’s solo debut as everyone, (myself
included) wants to see him succeed.
However I personally believe that this is a situation that has grown past Seunghan, this boycott is not only about SM’s mistreatment of Seunghan and their failure to protect their Idols, it is about the toxic nature of Korea’s fan culture. If people allow this to be the resolution of the SM/Riize boycott, SM wins, toxic knets win, and the people who were sending Seunghan death threats wins. The message that will be sent to SM is that they can make whatever choices they believe will make them the most money, and deal with the backlash later. This way they get k-briize money supporting Riize as 6 while also getting International Briize’s money through support from Seunghan’s debut. The toxic knets who wanted Seunghan out of Riize will also see this as a win because Riize would continue as 6. As long as the people who lead a hate campaign against Seunghan feel that their methods were successful, they WILL do it again.
To me this is a matter of human rights and fair treatment for Idols. I don’t believe I will be able to support Seunghan’s debut in good faith because I believe it sends the message to SM that they got away with it, and they can get away with it again. They have failed to protect their idols and prioritized Korean fans complaints over their Idols well being time and time again. They’re doing it now with the NCT Dream situation. This is a problem that has existed within the kpop industry for years and years and it needs to stop.
I’ve been listening to bigger kpop artists illegally, but now I’m listening to all kpop (big and small) illegally unless they’re completely independent (no independent agencies) because I’m so over it. Everybody can get it!
So debuting him as a soloist works but not adding him back to riize?
SM.. Maths is mathening
It doesn't make any sense
I would prefer if Seunghan left the company and debuted as a soloist or at another group
Not still at SM
The haters are already trying to campaign to not let Seunghan debut even as a soloist
Citing the “damage he’s done to Riize and Riize’s reputation”
Those who think that way , then they should eat something disgusting
They really should
This is just absolutely insane to me. He's suffered enough in this industry already, what are they thinking??
If he's gonna have to do it all over again it should be with riize there to support him, not on his own where he'll no doubt be the target of harassment and bullying again and be forced to deal with it by himself.
They can kick rocks tbh
The fact sm hasn’t even posted him on their main accounts is kinda…
Boycott SM at this point
Everyone
They have done too many bad stuff that is unacceptable
That are*
They posted the announcement on their Twitter but besides that…
I’m already boycotting sm
Same
I’m not happy about him being a soloist cause look at Lucas he released one album and hasn’t released anything in a while and can’t interact with other sm artists and sm has done nothing and that’s the treatment he will get as a soloist under sm so I’m still boycotting and I won’t support Seunghan’s solo career cause that’s giving sm what they want ot6’s money and ot7’s money
Same here
I saw about his solo debut announcement but I already boycotted that following his departure, also, I want to see how the stocks will go down following this boycott, Lucas was also here at the Shillong Cherry Blossom Festival performance but I didn’t want to go because of the ticket prices, they’re bloody expensive as hell. I already knew SM was looking for money only
I’m also not following RIIZE on IG, YouTube and Twitter, because of toxic OT6 fans, Riize is always 7 no matter what
From what I saw Lucas’ appearance was cancelled at that event due to visa issues
So they will get money or not?
I dunno
Tbh, this situation is really sad for both Seunghan and Riize. SM is has always been horrible in regards to managing their artist and with giving false hope to them more recently. It took them nearly 3 years to remove Lucas from NCT and they immediately removed Seunghan within 24 hours of bringing him back. These long hiatus' to have the idols 'reflect' over allegations that they deem false is not helping the image of these idols and is shown to deeply affect the mental health of their idols.

There’s profanity.
Hey everyone I think we should try to refrain from sharing too many videos that contain a lot of profanity. Even if the op shares some insight about the subject matter and it might reflect many of our opinions, we should still try to avoid sharing videos with profanity or at the very least keep it to a minimum so it doesn’t go against the server rules. This just a gentle reminder and not to be mean or anything. 
SM can go burn.
If you go to Seunghans Instagram all of his tagged posts are OT7 BRIIZE
It's nice to see that people are trying to flood his ig with positive comments despite everything
So today was the day that MAMA LA was and apparently they banned the color orange (it's their official color) and the number 7. They also made all the briize who came with banners and lightstick covers throw them all away. Also, they almost didn't let people in because someone was wearing an orange shirt and orange lipstick. This is what briize on Twitter are all saying
i was IN LINE, NOT at security screening & staff asked to check my bag and show him what I had ?!took my lightstick cvr from me, a piece of paper…no writing on it whatsoever not blocking anyone’s view and said he “had to confiscate it” bc “7’s R NOT ALLOWED” and I quote
Oh so SM cares more about this then funeral wreaths.
Banners are prohibited but they let other people have them. But banning people for wearing orange and for a number is really stupid.
Can’t they get in trouble for this? This was a very last minute change. They did not make an announcement before hand about banning colors and numbers.
Yeah that’s no right to just outright ban colors and numbers
SM and Mnet care more about this than a kid (Seunghan)’s mental wellbeing
Sorry Seunghan will always be a kid to me
That’s what actually makes me even more mad about this. You can respond so to this then him getting ||death threats||.
RIIZE got best global performer…Ain’t that ironic…
Literally, like the fact they aren’t doing anything against the people who now are trying to say he shouldn’t even be allowed to be a soloist and still bullying him just speaks volumes
Keep talking about “we’ll take legal action” no you won’t stop lying.
Literally
If yall were taking legal action you would sue all the kbriize who sent death wreaths outside your building and basically wanted Seunghan ||dead||
Yall been saying that since forever.
Mama day 2 is happening soon so we’ll see with in Japan but I don’t have a good feeling still
Same.
absolutely disgusting behavior from SM 😐
SM has a million reasons to be cancelled and these are several of the reasons
And boycotted
The people who actually believe that are goofy. If they didn’t protect him when he was in the group what makes you think he’ll be protected as a soloist? The crazy thing is he’s a soloist now and SM still hasn’t done anything to protect him so now what?
8887 likes, 232 comments. “PLEASE SPREAD THIS! This is how SM & Mama treat international Briize! KEEP BOYCOTTING!”
so gross what they did at this show, they're literally alienating their own fanbase
this is so real, sm have never been good at protecting their artists but this is a whole new level
It actually did, despite me not going to the festival
An article was made about the current protests that OT7 fans are doing in front of SM’s headquarters. It revealed that SM had objected to this protest but because the protests and banners were registered with the Seongdong Police Station, the protests are being carried out in accordance to the legal procedures. Here’s a translation of the article and a link to the original Korean article as well if anyone is interested.

and another thing i forgot to mention is that the ot7 fans are working with a korean law firm
SM is dumb and stupid, they don’t realise that OT7 fans are working with Korean law firm and also Media is also calling out and criticising SM and OT6 fans

People can’t keep saying y’all want idols to be treated better yet enable these companies to be ||abusive||. It’s like y’all never learn huh.
Y’all don’t want change. Y’all love idol ||abuse|| at this point. Y’all just want to keep pitying them over and over again.
This is exactly why I’m “done” with kpop. You people make me sick. Trash just like these companies.
I saw this just now but idk if it’s true or not or if it’s okay share in here or in the thread about njz and their legal battle with hybe/ador, but there are rumors going around that the same person who sent an led protest truck to demand njz’s return to hybe/ador is allegedly the same one who sent one demanding Seunghan to be removed from RIIZE days before their official debut.
https://vxtwitter.com/njzbubblegum/status/1905561506588287367?s=46
It has been confirmed that the bank account number of the organizer who sent a protest truck demanding the withdrawal of former member S******* three days before R***E's debut matches that of the organizer who recently sent a truck demanding NJZ's return to HYBE/ADOR.
