Fourth Generation Boy Group Accused Of Mocking Fans During Livestream
Boy group EPEX was recently accused of mocking their fans during a recent livestream. The boys had been backstage during a fanevent where fans could meet the members 1:1 and take photos with them.
The boys acted from the fans’ point-of-view. They pretended to be a fan taking a vlog, copying how nervous fans usually were.
While they did not seem to have bad intentions, fans felt that their over-the-top acting made it seem as if they were mocking fans’ habits and actions at events.
The members also copied how fans talk.
Videos of the livestream were reposted.

Fans were disgruntled that the members seemed to be extra excited in this livestream.

No, but did this happen because Seo Kyungmin complained it was boring? Why does he have f*cking so much to say when it’s a livestream mocking fans, but on the regular he f*cking doesn’t say a word? Is it that they have a lot bottled up inside, or that they just have no brains…
