1. [+275, -16] It's not like he's harming any of you ㅋㅋ he's just an artist performing his art, fighting
2. [+66, -1] Who cares what he does as long as he doesn't harm others with it
3. [+55, -0] If he's expressing himself within boundaries where no one is harmed, there is no problem here!
4. [+52, -3] Soohyun-ah, go stop your oppa
5. [+36, -0] His performances may be provocative but he has musicality and has always been known as a singer who puts in hard work into his music. His expression of his music may seem bizarre on stage but he's never harmed anyone or caused distress to our society. He's a much more upright artist than idols or actors who cause drug abuse, drunk driving, and sexual assault scandals. So what is the issue here?
6. [+34, -0] He served in the marines, has never been in scandals for drunk driving, assault, drugs, or prostitution. He's guested on EBS with an interest in children's education... so again, where's the issue here? He's a curious guy who loves experimenting new things with his interests, and he's more interesting than the same old idols who shake their butts in shorts to the same old songs. If we care about fostering more diversity in our music industry, we need more kids like him.
7. [+22, -0] We need to learn as a society to accept different people. Instead of hating on someone for being different from you, you should be trying to understand that they are living in the same world as you in a different way. Don't try to box people into the same standards as yourself. Just like how there are various colors in a rainbow, we should embrace how different everyone is instead of blindly thinking that there's something wrong with someone if they're different.
8. [+21, -0] He's not hurting anyone... in this ajusshi's eyes, he's just cute ㅋㅋㅋ
9. [+15, -0] Cross a line and it becomes attention seeking behavior
10. [+14, -1] I like this a lot~~ much better than all the same songs and performances punched out of a factory. I agree with the comment that the industry needs someone like Chanhyuk!
11. [+11, -0] Don't hate on him just for baiting some attention. He's within legal boundaries, he's never done drugs or drove drunk.
12. [+14, -5] Hmm... well I watched his performance on YouTube and didn't think he was that particularly great of a singer, and there wasn't really a story to his art..... but.... all of the comments were adamant that he's a genius
13. [+9, -0] I think it's great that we're becoming a society where new things like this can be attempted ^^
