Stray Kids’ Felix Officially Apologizes For His Actions On Korea’s Liberation Day
Previously, Stray Kids’ Felix was under fire for mentioning a Japanese anime challenge on Korea’s liberation day.
“Gwangbokjeol” is a public holiday celebrated every year on August 15. It commemorates the liberation of Korea from Japanese rule in 1945.
On August 15, he sent a voice message through the fan community app Bubble. He participated in the Shikanoko challenge, a Japanese anime challenge.
Most recently, he posted an official apology online.
“Hello, this is Felix. I would like to apologize to my fans and to everyone who was disappointed by my carelessness. During a voice live broadcast on the early morning of August 15, I mentioned a Japanese song while talking with fans about short-form challenges. I truly apologize for my carelessness on such a meaningful liberation day.
I am deeply reflecting on my lack of knowledge about history. I will study, think, and act more carefully in areas where I have been lacking and make sure something like this does not happen again.”
— Felix
