Fifth-Generation Idols’ Content With Veteran Actor Sparks Heated Debate
Recently, TripleS‘ Chaeyeon and actor Kim Kwang Kyu were joined by fellow member Chaewon on their regular YouTube series.
One of the games was a take on musical chairs.
During one round, Kim Kwang Kyu pushed Chaeyeon to get the seat.
Chaewon then pulled the chair as “revenge” but then went immediately to check if he was okay.
When the video was posted, some claimed that the whole game concept could have been dangerous for both the idols and the veteran actor.
Joke aside but pulling the chair is very dangerous for the man. There have been many cases where victims are severely injured after falling. The fall could hurt their spines and bones. Just a reminder don’t do this to your classmates. pic.twitter.com/MF48OiglcF

That's the subtlest push ever, and it's a game. She won't get hurt, but the man? He could break his spine and paralysed because of this. It's not funny at all.
No harm for the girls tho. https://t.co/Svyh76ZgGe

Yet, many fans defended the idols saying that the content wasn’t malicious and even sharing that both Chaewon and Chaeyeon made sure to help Kim Kwang Kyu during the video.
everyone calling her the bword friendly reminder that she is 17 years old. She had no malicious intent and he will be fine and is obviously overexaggerating😭 why are yall shooting for a 50+ year old man https://t.co/UW5rlkf6tm

Others even pointed out that the male actor did it first to a young idol on purpose and that the idol shouldn’t be criticized for just responding.
so it's okay for a grown ass man to push a 20-something y/o to the ground ON PURPOSE but when he gets a chair pulled from his butt its shame on her??? https://t.co/Jc2UazURGC

It would’ve all been done safely, but has sparked a debate.
