STAYC Yoon‘s recent Instagram post has been flooded with hate following her recent comments on a survival show.
Yoon is currently among the star-studded mentors on the new survival show Starlight Boys.
The show has come under major criticism, with single Lee Seung Gi getting backlash for his treatment of the trainees.
As one of the mentors, Yoon has been subjected to hate comments following a recent episode.
In the recent episode, the groups were performing in front of some of the mentors. After one of the group’s performances, the rest of the contestants started clapping for the team.
Yoon then looked at the contestants in the audience before saying, “Why are you applauding?” Fellow mentor Choi Young Jun also questioned the actions, adding, “Is this a club? Kids, are you in a club?”
The judges then went on to share their disappointment about the contestants’ performances.
