One of the vital frequent criticisms about RIIZE’s participation in Rolling Loud is that some followers really feel SM Leisure is being hypocritical. Not too long ago, Seunghan‘s departure from RIIZE was introduced. This choice was made inside 48 hours after it was introduced he would return after a 10-month hiatus. Many worldwide followers have been left confused and heartbroken in consequence. Seunghan’s departure from the group seemed to be a results of SM Leisure giving in to bullying from some Korean followers who protested his return, sending funeral wreaths to the corporate, as they had been indignant about his pre-debut life-style, because it had been revealed he had a girlfriend and smoked.
The music pageant is related to hashish (marijuana). Earlier this yr, Rolling Loud truly partnered with the hashish firm STIIIZY to design merchandise in addition to give away tickets. Marijuana is thought to be closely unlawful in South Korea, RIIZE’s participation in any Rolling Loud pageant is an odd alternative. Whereas RIIZE will likely be performing in Thailand, Frost is the official hashish companion of Rolling Loud Thailand.
Contemplating one of many fundamental causes Seunghan was punished was as a consequence of smoking a cigarette, many followers really feel it’s ironic RIIZE is performing on the pageant. They referred to as out SM Leisure’s alleged hypocrisy.
Sending RIIZE to ROLLING LOUD. A pageant primarily based off of SMOKING WEED. Whereas having simply kicked out a member for holding a CIGARETTE between his lips pre debut. I’ve to snort. #BringBackSeunghan #RII7E_Or_NONE #SMSuppportsBullying #승한의_복귀_번복을_번복하라
