HYBE Founder Bang Si Hyuk’s Comments About ENHYPEN Spark Major Outrage
HYBE founder Bang Si Hyuk‘s comments about ENHYPEN in a new article has sparked anger.
Recently, The New Yorker posted an article about Bang Si Hyuk.
Bang Si-hyuk, the man behind BTS, is the founder of HYBE corporation—part record label, part talent agency, part tech platform, part entertainment conglomerate. Bang is determined to extend the company’s influence across the international pop landscape. https://t.co/VLZ3W36nhT

In the article, the founder spoke about HYBE and the groups, but one paragraph about ENHYPEN sparked major anger.
Bang Si Hyuk spoke about the members when they were trainees, presumably referring to their time on I-Land. When describing the members, he said, “There’s something really dark and sexy about them.”
Netizens shared their anger that the comments seemed very inappropriate to describe the members of ENHYPEN before they debuted, especially as they were all minors with the youngest Ni-Ki only being 13.
y'all come look at what I read in this new article (the one katseye and bang pd were photographed together for)… bang pd calling the enhypen members sexy as trainees… they were all minors as trainees, the youngest being 13 pic.twitter.com/tn780oNZYB

im genuinely shocked at how a whole ass article about another group ended up dismissing engenes’ real concerns over enha’s health, bang pd saying enha were “dark and sexy” when they were minors and insulting enhypen’s impact for god knows what like wtf
