- “Putting your arm around the waist of a hometown friend? LOL just stay put, ugh.”
- “They should’ve just ignored it.”
- “I was like, he had a dating scandal…? but then I read the comments, and oh dear…”
- “Amazing LOL”
- “Isn’t the company way too bad at doing their job? If they respond then an article will be released… There’s no group picture but only one where they’re even touching each other, and on top of that, they’re adding a lie that no one believes in… Are they treating fans like fools?”
- “They should’ve just let it go… Why did they give a statement?”
- “The company sucks at their job.”
Releasing the statement only served to confirm that it was indeed Kim Donghyun in the photo and video. Claims that it was just a friend would then be seen as questionable.
