K-pop stars, like other normal individuals, are human beings too who have their own weaknesses.
Idols usually get along with fellow stars and their co-members and they are mostly seen as the best of friends. But at some instances, there are those who were criticized as rude ones towards their fellow celebrities. Unfortunately, given they're public figures, they can't escape the eagle-eyed fans who can see even their slightest actions done onscreen.
In this regard, these 5 K-pop idols were said to be rude to co-members, according to netizens.
TWICE Nayeon Being Rude to Dahyun
TWICE members are simply adorable as their sweet concept gathered millions of attention from all over the world. However, one of the members, Nayeon, was once criticized for being unpleasant to Dahyun. In one of their onscreen appearances, fans raised their eyebrows when Nayeon was seen letting go of the other girl's hand as if she didn't want to hold it. They felt that she was being cold to her.
Later on, it was revealed that she had to automatically let go of it as she had to do a task. ONCEs defended Nayeon and said that it was a total misconception as Nayeon is a sweet girl to her fellow members.
MOMOLAND Nancy to BLACKPINK
It was a big buzz online when MOMOLAND's Nancy was spotted with a pouting face the moment BLACKPINK members were giving their acceptance speech after winning at the Music Core. She was criticized for allegedly raising her eyebrows towards the girls.
Nevertheless, her fandom, Merry-Go-Round, defended her and said that it was totally a single gesture that she didn't even intend to do. They have also showed in many instances wherein Nancy looked cheerful on that stage.
GFRIEND Yerin to SinB
Yerin of GFRIEND did not escape criticism after being seen poking fellow member SinB. For those who witnessed it, netizens said Yerin was looking rude that was way beyong being playful. However, the two quashed the speculation and said that is just how they treat each other when they are playful.
Former X1 Son Dongpyo to Seungyon
Once, Son Dongpyo was criticized for allegedly being rude to former co-member Seungyoun. In one of their videos, the latter was trying to embrace the former X1 but as seen on cam, he immediately resisted by pushing him with his hands. Netizens called it foul and, therefore, they labeled him as rude. However, others said that they must have been playful with each other as the two were seen smiling together on the same video.
Red Velvet Joy to Seulgi
Netizens claimed that Joy was rude to Seulgi one time. In one of the videos of the girls, she was allegedly pushing the other idol out of the picture and they found it being selfish. According to them, she wanted to own a bigger space in the picture and it irritated some fans.
Still, Reveluvs were quick to defend Joy and said that she didn't really mean that. As a matter of fact, Joy had been sweet to her co-member several times.
K-pop Idols have all eyes on them, and while people believe that they should be careful with what they do to avoid criticisms that are sometimes half-meant, this doesn't mean that every little thing they do should be given meaning since they're celebrities who are vulnerable to public glare.
