Speculations and Sympathy

Fans were quick to speculate whether the extended length of the vlog was a deliberate move by the editing team to debunk the circulating rumors and showcase Anton's innocence.

In the comment section of the vlog, fans expressed their unwavering support and sympathy for the idol amidst the adversity he faced.

Some comments reflected frustration towards the spread of baseless rumors within the fandom, highlighting the need for solidarity and support rather than divisive gossip.

Despite the tumultuous period, Anton's genuine sincerity towards his fans and dedication to his craft have not gone unnoticed.

HERE ARE SOME OF THE NETIZENS' COMMENTS:

There's nothing wrong, but getting criticized to this extent feels absurd and insane. On top of that, forced reasons keep multiplying endlessly. However, seeing fans unite because sincerity is proven, and realizing that even compliments are insufficient, it reminds me that resistance is necessary for momentum.

It was just a small incident, but it's becoming the core now... Anton, I hope you gain strength and realize that there are more fans who believe in you, cherish you, and love you.

Thinking that Lee Chan-young is being criticized for no reason makes me so sad and angry... He's so sincere to us like this...
