After seeing the two idols dance, Super Junior Heechul asked, "Are you going to appear on PandaTV?" The editors of the YouTube show also included subtitles saying the idols will receive donations as streamers do.
For starters, PandaTV is an internet platform that mostly shows adult content, and has been under fire for its excessively obscene broadcasts.
Viewers gathered on the online community The Qoo to express their disappointment in Super Junior Heechul, as well as to the editors of "Street Alcohol Fighter."
Some of the comments are, "Aren't you being too rude to WINNER?" "The editor should have removed this part," "Heechul made such remark after seeing a sexy dance, so he probably knows what PandaTV is like," and "I can't believe he said that to his juniors."
