Hanbin? If you’re going to be like this, why do you just have to use English?

Hanbin’s texts on Dear. U Bubble contained spelling mistakes such as for the word “excited…”
…as well as for the brand Calvin Klein.
He also misspelled “protein…”
…and the word “tension.”
While English is not his first language and mistakes are inevitable, some pointed out that he did not actually need to use English in those situations. They called him out for creating a studious image.

It’s f*cking funny how they’re gaslighting fans with his student body president, model student image when he’s like this.

Others expressed gratitude that he was making an effort to include international fans.
I appreciate the effort he puts into communicating with fans in languages other than Korean. Making mistakes while learning is normal, and the message is being conveyed regardless. Stop nitpicking people over things that don't matter. https://t.co/DpWQ8DOJFz
