Concert Restrooms of Popular Girl Group Ignite Intense Backlash from Female Online Users

fromis_9 is facing backlash over restroom arrangements at their Seoul world tour opening.

The girl group started their first world tour in Seoul with packed concerts featuring group, solo, and rare album performances. Fans were treated to memorable moments, and the members thanked supporters:

“We will continue to become people you can be even more proud of in the future. Thank you for believing in us, and we love you.”

However, an online post about the concert’s bathroom situation sparked controversy, gaining over 87,000 views.

Because the audience gender ratio was 9:1 male to female, the women’s restroom was temporarily converted into a men’s restroom. This practice is common in Korean venues but raised concerns among female netizens.

Comments included:

“What if they install molkas?”

“We’re f*cked.”

“Are they crazy? Just install portable toilets…people aren’t in their right minds.”

“I understand why, but I hope they do a molka detection test afterwards.”

“I don’t want to share the bathroom with dirty men for even a second.”

“I can’t help but feel dirty, but if the ratio is 9:1, I guess they have no choice…”

“No thoughts, just shocked at how many male fans there are.”

“We are going to have to check thoroughly for molkas.”

fromis_9 is set to continue their world tour across the United States, Japan, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. The controversy is still gaining traction among fans and netizens monitoring the situation.
