While talking to VIXX's Hongbin on SNS, he had written, "Fans want your bank account. Put it up here for about 0.5 seconds. Let's tell the fans to handle our vacation and lodging and everything", which some fans had interpreted to mean that he was telling the fans to pay for everything. In his apology, he clarified that he wanted the fans to decide where they would be vacationing and lodging at after looking at his bank account.

1. [+374, -11] As the saying goes, keep doing good for someone and they'll start taking it for granted
2. [+372, -10] Please don't think that you're entitled to your fans being good to you
3. [+232, -9] How dare this nugu ba$tard beg at his few fans like this!?
4. [+33, -3] Sigh, do you guys honestly think these kids became celebrities with proper heads on their shoulders? Study hard and get into good companies and start working with smart people and people like him won't even seem human to you anymore. Kids like him, all they can think about is how to mooch off of people as easily as possible. You fans are just another ATM to him.
5. [+32, -2] Just like god's Danny Ahn, you fans are nothing but money to him
6. [+29, -3] Kyah, what would celebrities be without their need to beg for everything ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ mention something you want on SNS and you have people buying it for you, luxury gifts being sent on your birthday... it's a secondary income, really ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
7. [+21, -3] Idiot ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ you have to rip off your fans quietly, you can't do it blatantly to their faces
8. [+18, -2] Farewell kid
9. [+15, -2] He wrote it out as blatantly as possible for you fans ㅎㅎ you guys are nothing but money + trash to these idols
10. [+13, -3] Stupid fangirls, this is the real face of your oppa
11. [+13, -4] Do you see what you stupid fangirls mean to your oppas ^_^
12. [+12, -1] He'll be great at live streaming as a lewd male streamer, that's all his brain will amount to

1. [+342, -44] This is why I seriously hate idols... they start off acting all grateful and crying tears... and then they start thinking that they're entitled to all those fan gifts
2. [+248, -29] I don't understand fans who drop their self worth like this to like these idols... you can like them, that's fine, but don't let them treat you like this and shield them for it
3. [+210, -24] He's so used to being given things by fans that he subconsciously just expects it ㅋㅋㅋㅋ humans are creatures of habit after all
4. [+81, -10] Still can't beat the best fan slave master Danny Ahn ㅋㅋㅋ
5. [+71, -9] I have a singer I like too but I'll never understand this culture of fans buying everything for their singers. Celebrities are grateful at first and then they start feeling entitled to it. They're people, after all. They're bound to lose their humility. Fans need to stop putting them on a pedestal and know their limits!
6. [+8, -1] He didn't mean it like that though but people here just want to interpret it the way they want to so I have nothing to say. Us fans are okay!
7. [+7, -1] Fans who were reading their interaction in live time know that he didn't mean it that way. I think he was just joking and playing along with the fans... Well, I'm glad they still gave feedback either way
8. [+2, -0] The job of fans is to put food on the table for stars after all~~~ you kids don't seriously believe that these stars genuinely love and care for you, right?
9. [+7, -2] Seems the commenters here are just Gongchan antis ㅋㅋㅋ did they not read the article and just head straight to the comments? ㅋㅋㅋ This is just a misunderstanding, why would you comment that you hate idols or how they're entitled ㅋㅋㅋ
10. [+7, -2] Daeeeebak
