Nam Taehyun Admits He Also Suffered Dark Thoughts Because of Malicious Comments
Nam Taehyun posted a message on his official Instagram account regarding malicious comments and how they affect celebrities like himself.
The post reads as follows:
I don’t want to lose any more of my friends and colleagues. Just like all of you, celebrities are people, too. I’m also one of the celebrities that receive a lot of malicious comments. That’s why it hits me even harder. That girl… That friend of mine… must have been in so much pain. There was a time when I didn’t think I could stand it anymore and attempted to end my life as well. The comments that you leave on a whim can hurt celebrities more than you think. Many people tell me not to look at such mean comments. But when my name starts trending and people start texting me, asking me what happened, it’s hard not to look at them. Please stop this. I don’t want to lose any more of my friends and colleagues.
