TXT’s Soobin Exposed to Offensive NSFW Content of Yeonjun by Gay Shipper, Sparking Backlash
TXT’s Soobin faces backlash after inappropriate fan call incident
TXT’s Soobin is in the middle of controversy following a recent video call event in mid-August where a fan sexually harassed him. During the fansign call, a fan brought up an audio clip featuring Yeonjun moaning, asking Soobin explicit questions related to the clip.
Soobin appeared visibly confused and did not respond for about 20 seconds while the fan pushed the uncomfortable topic. The fan’s remarks included a play on words about Soobin’s “relationship” with Yeonjun, referencing a fake sex audio involving Yeonjun.
Fans quickly condemned the incident online, calling it sexual harassment and demanding the fan responsible be banned from future events. The hosting company reportedly banned the individual.
A fan tweeted:
“what the fuck is wrong with some shippers why would you fucking show Soobin a fake Yeonbin moaning clip during fansign and ask him sexual questions??? What do you expect him to say???????? Why is this even allowed??? Have some class and dignity gosh”
Another fan urged mass reporting to Hybe’s website:
“Due to the recent issue with Soobin being sexually harassed in a fancall, we are asking everyone to mass reporting the issue to Hybe website.”
Many fans described the incident as a huge boundary crossed, emphasizing Soobin is a human, not a toy for fantasies.
“The amount of weirdos that did won fancalls to make uncomfortable the members, but this time it really crossed a huge line, Soobin truly didn’t have to go through that he is a HUMAN being not a toy for your fantasies, that was truly disgusting” — fan tweet
“soobin got sexually harassed by a person during a fancall. stop beating around the bush. it needs to be publicly addressed to prevent from it from happening again to both txt and other idols in the industry.” — fan tweet
Thankfully, most calls with Soobin remain respectful, with fans and the company on alert to prevent similar incidents in future.
