Member Shinwon of Pentagon has become a rather hot issue on social media as he was caught pulling his pants down on a video.

The screenshot had gained much attention after going viral on Korean SNS platforms over the weekend. Fans expressed their negative outlook on the situation questioning why he would pull his pants from the waist down instead of the leg up to show off his bruises.

Cube Entertainment responded to the matter saying that the current accusations are false reports and that fans are using photos and screenshots from a year old video of the boy group pre-debut reality program 'Pentagon Maker.' "The video is actually over a year old and is not at all recent," Cube Entertainment explained. "It was a pre-arranged joke with the staff and was not out of the blue at all. We don't understand why this is being spread as a recent live video."

After giving a sigh of relief after completing a hard day's work of rough dance practice, Shinwon complains how his legs hurt from the intense choreography. Then suddenly, a fellow member pulls his pants down lightly to reveal he is covered in bruises. Shinwon shouts, "Hey, what the!" and his members laugh it off as the camera transitions to another member's bruised legs.
