5th Generation Idol Apologizes Profusely For Repeatedly Swearing At Fans
Content Warning
Former FM Entertainment trainee Beomhan has remained the subject of controversy after a series of profanity-laced rants.
It began when Beomhan faced backlash made questionable “jokes” following the U.S. presidential election results. While he intended to cope with a bad situation with humor, viewers did not receive it well, as many felt the jokes were insensitive, ill-timed, and not his place as a man.
Everyone who is a woman, this week, rest in peace, and I’d like to say, ‘Rest in peace’ to all women, and we have failed you this week and as a country. And, Donald Trump, congratulations on being the president. However, I would like to say that Beyoncé had the best music video of all time, and thank you, Beyoncé. …And if you’re a woman, just know that we stand with you, and I am so sorry and rest in peace and good luck. I’m so sorry. And please take a mental health day and go shopping or something.

Beomhan quickly apologized after taking heat for the now-viral clip. Yet, as netizens continued criticizing him and resurfacing past controversies and false allegations, the former K-Pop trainee got defensive and soon lashed out on social media with both X (formerly Twitter) rants and Instagram live broadcasts, which were heavily laced with profanity.
Clips from his two Instagram live broadcasts have gone viral, as Beomhan continually cursed out those who continued to leave him hate comments. This included him accidentally repeating the “R slur,” which a netizen had directed to ward him. His behavior during the live broadcasts alarmed netizens as he publicly yelled and used profanity. Many suspected he was using drugs and was “crashing out,” although he claimed to be sober.

Beomhan held himself accountable, addressing his inappropriate political joke, his cursing rampage, and his “crash out” Instagram Live. He explained that he was cursing in anger at everyone who formed smear campaigns against him and left him hate comments. Still, he recognizes that it was out of control and inappropriate, especially as many fans had been watching.
