ENHYPEN’s Sunghoon Gets Flamed For Allegedly Spitting Out Gum During Concert

In a post on X that has gone viral, ENHYPEN‘s Sunghoon has been accused of spitting out gum on stage. Sunghoon was videoed spitting gum into a tissue.
What invited criticism was not the fact that he had been chewing gum during a concert, but that he seemed to have casually thrown it away on stage.
The original post has now gone viral on X with over 680,000 views.

Is it FR how at the concert, Park Sunghoon threw the tissue he spat out gum into onto the floor? Who’s gonna clean that up in the end, f*ck?

Netizens were disapproving, harshly criticizing his lack of manners. A small portion defended him, claiming that it was a soundcheck not a concert, and that he had spat it into a tissue, where it could be disposed off later on.

- As a fan who really likes Park Sunghoon, I can feel that his attitude has changed somewhat recently. Although it pains me if people just bash him like that, he does need to change what is necessary. I don’t know where or when he started to change, but this isn’t the Sunghoon I fell for.
- Wasn’t he someone known for taking care of his image meticulously? He needs to change up his “man illness.“
- It is indeed rude of him. There’s nothing you can shield him for. It’s also not right for you to jump on the bandwagon and take the chance to hate on him now. Recently it just feels like the entire group has caught the “man illness” but I hope they can throw away that persona and communicate with the fans well. I know they’re busy with Coachella, but are only some members busy? It just boils down to attitude.
- It’s not like he was half-assing a dance break, but he performed on stage well. He threw it away using a tissue too, so give him a break.
“Man illness” has been a popular term online recently to refer to idols who have turned arrogant and unmannerly. On the other hand, Sunghoon has yet to speak up on the controversy.
