EXO-CBX’s Baekhyun is currently under fire for his recent message to fans. The controversy erupted on June 17 when a post titled “Baekhyun’s Bubble Message From Yesterday” gained significant attention online.
In the post, the author shared a message from Baekhyun, which read, “In a world of no absolutes, I really hope that our fans, who gave me absolute love, have a better day. I just really miss you guys.” Despite the seemingly heartfelt sentiment, many fans were not pleased.
The backlash stems from ongoing allegations that EXO-CBX, a subunit of the popular group EXO, has been exploiting the EXO name for personal gain. Fans drew parallels between Baekhyun and Kang Sung Hoon, a member of Sechs Kiss, who was previously accused of using fans for his benefit.
Comments from fans ranged from skepticism to outright criticism. Some questioned Baekhyun’s motives, with remarks like, “Lol, I’m curious. Will doing this work?” and “So he’s asking for absolute devotion…”. Others were more direct, labeling him as “clingy” and accusing him of causing fans “a legendary amount of grief.”
Several fans even went as far as to say, “He’s basically Kang Sung Hoon,” drawing a direct comparison to the Sechs Kiss member. The sentiment was echoed in comments like, “He seriously reminds me of Kang Sung Hoon” and “Kang Sung Hoon, dejavu.”
The controversy has sparked a heated debate among fans and observers alike. While some believe Baekhyun’s message was a genuine expression of affection, others see it as a manipulative tactic to garner sympathy and support amid the allegations.
As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how Baekhyun and his team will address the criticism. For now, the idol finds himself at the center of a storm, with fans divided over his intentions and actions.
