“Should Be Banned” — Red Velvet’s Seulgi Denies A Fan’s “Inappropriate” Video Call Request

The creation of online video calls has offered many positive benefits. Fans unable to make the journey to Korea for in-person events can interact with their favorite idols, and idols can see exactly how far their popularity reaches.

HAECHAN DID THE COOKIE CHALLENGE!! pic.twitter.com/ogjsMrpooG— nabila (@nalzoney) November 6, 2022
With Seulgi, the fan requested she do a challenge popular on Chinese social media. The challenge involves the person miming as though they are holding the back of someone’s neck and then making a slapping motion as though they were hitting their butt, implying a sexual act.
Aespa‘s Karina was previously requested to do the same challenge.

When Seulgi was asked to do this, she emphatically said no, turning down the request.
