Bonekdo and Unhak Bullying Controversy? The Situation During "Maejeom Gayo" and the Group's Usual Atmosphere + Fan Reactions

I have compiled the usual atmosphere, fan reactions, and messages from the members, ranging from the Bonekdo bullying controversy and the Unhak ice cream incident at the snack bar to the mention of the maknae bullying controversy.

 

It seems the most frequently seen keyword in K-pop communities these days is 'Bonnek teasing the maknae' 🔥

 

As the live clip of the snack bar song spread on Shorts, reactions such as "Is it really necessary to shout this much?" poured in.
While some view it as just a common prank among the members, Unhak's fans are even saying that it's "they finally exploded after holding it in for three years." 😭

 

Let me explain from the beginning why this story, which started with just an ice cream, has grown this big!

 

 

1. The Unhak Ice Cream Incident at the School Store: What Happened? 🍦

 

The scene in question came out during the snack bar song live performance.

The story of the youngest member, Unhak, handing out ice cream out of apology after accidentally bumping into the dancers. It came out.
Here Seongho said, "But they kept only ours and gave everyone else away." The atmosphere changed as he said that.

The story Why didn't you buy the members'? It flowed in that direction, Unhak bought some for the members, but he also gave some to other staff members. He explained it.

 

Then the leader Myeong Jae-hyeon He retorted like this.

"Are you lying without even changing your expression?"
When Unhak apologized, he repeated the words, "Don't apologize when you aren't."

 

There were many reactions saying it was even more regrettable because it was a scene that could have been resolved with a laugh and the apology accepted.
Looking at this scene in isolation, it could be seen as a common prank among the members, but as it overlaps with their usual atmosphere, people are saying, "This time, it doesn't look like a joke."

 

 

2. This isn't the first time? Constantly criticizing the group's atmosphere 😥

 

The reason this incident escalated so widely is, This is because fans have felt that Unhak is the only one who gets singled out for criticism. are you.

The episodes summoned together are as follows.

 

There is an anecdote about how, at age 15, feeling like five arrows were all aimed at him, he searched "how to get angry properly" on YouTube, but Taesan saw it and told his older brothers, resulting in him just repeating "Ah, what are you doing?"

 

The scene in the self-produced content where Liu says he thought "our debut is ruined" when Unhak first joined.

The criticism that he was scolded on variety shows whether he ordered food or not.
The opinion is that whenever Unhak brought up a topic, the conversation was frequently cut off with the response, "I'm not interested in your story."

 

Of course, since it is a scene chosen by the fans. Please keep in mind that it may appear differently depending on the context. I have to do it 💡

3. Even a bullying controversy? Divided fan reactions 🗣️

 

In some comments "If it were a female idol, a bullying controversy would have already erupted at this level" It even went so far as to say that.
The criticism was that because they are male idols, the issue is being covered up with excuses like "it's just a joke" or "they are close."

The reactions are broadly divided into three categories.

Criticism of teasing the youngest : It’s the explosion of what I’ve held back for three years; please tone it down, at least in front of the camera.
The side suggesting stopping They say the members resolved it among themselves, but enough is enough; it has become a platform for mocking other fans.
leave I get nervous every time I watch the content, so I only cheer for Unhak instead of the group.

 

first A reaction of pitying Unhak There were the most of these.

"Shouldn't it be a heartwarming story if the youngest member takes care of the staff first?"
This is the first time Bonek has closed a video because he felt offended while watching content.
"Why do I have to feel like the world isn't on my side when I'm 15 and getting chewed out by every single member?"
I know you're close, but I wish you'd show it on TV too, not just keep it private.
The more comfortable and close you are, the more you should pay attention.
"They'll probably prefer a relationship where the leader takes care of the youngest rather than teasing them."

 

There were also comments that provided more details about the situation at the time.

There was a story posted that Unhak originally bought enough for all the members but gave them to the stylists he hadn't thought of, and that Liu chimed in, confirming that he had indeed bought enough for the members.

After the live performance, as stories spread that Unhak grilled meat at the dorm to comfort his older brothers, people also said that "the youngest is the most mature."

 

Even among the fans who identified themselves as Jaehyun fans "Instead of unconditionally defending, we must say that what is wrong is wrong," "I also sometimes felt the uncomfortable atmosphere." There was a reaction.

 

on the other way So what do you want? An official apology? There were also loud voices saying that we should stop now.
Everyone knows that the members care for each other, and there were also opinions that the term "bullying" was excessive.
As some posts escalated into personal attacks on specific members "If the topic is teasing the youngest member, you should just talk about that. Why are you resorting to personal attacks?", "Weren't we supposed to like the same group?" There were even calls for midnight 😢

In response to this, counterarguments followed, saying, "Why is there no solution? All you need to do is show remorse and demonstrate changes in your future content."

 

 

4. Messages from the members after the controversy 💬

 

As the controversy grew, the members also shared their feelings on fan communication platforms.

Myeong Jae-hyeon said that he had a serious conversation with Un-hak and spoke like this.

I teared up while having a serious conversation with Unhak.
He said that no matter how the world changes or what happens, he definitely wants to be together.
Lee Han and Un Hak loved him.
I have laughed the most in my 24 years of life since meeting the members. We plan to be together for a long time, so please give us lots of love.

 

Seongho also said, "Don't be heartbroken because of me," and "We're meeting to laugh together," promising to do his best so that I wouldn't worry in the future.

 

In the end, I think what fans want is to see a 'changed side' on future broadcasts rather than just empty messages ✨
