Recently, DK SEVENTEEN was criticized by netizens because he was allegedly busy playing with his cell phone while doing fansign video calls with fans.
The accusation arose because the fansign video which apparently had been trimmed was spread.
In the trimmed video, DK can be seen looking down, as if typing something on his cell phone while talking to fans via video call.
After going viral and reaping controversy, fans quickly refuted the accusations.
Fans stated that the video was cropped and the original accuser refused to upload the full video.
Another video on the same day with uncropped portions of the video shows DK looking down on having to sign the album simultaneously.
Despite that, DK continued to listen to the fan talk and occasionally looked up to see her.
After the truth was revealed, netizens immediately felt guilty for accusing DK and criticizing him.
Netizens expressed their regrets by leaving various comments.
"Of course, why did he chat in such a short span of time? It's a shame he was criticized",
"This is a trivial matter, I even thought it wasn't a recently taken video, but an old video",
"So I think some people are trying to tarnish his image. It's such a relief that the accusations stop here",
"I understand. I feel guilty because of this misunderstanding",
"In my opinion, the fan's misunderstanding needs to be resolved",
"During a fansign, one has to talk to fans, sign albums and even focus on trying to understand what the fans are trying to say. How could he send a message?"
During the time when this issue surfaced, DK's agency remained silent and let fans sort things out on their own.
Fortunately, this misunderstanding has ended and DK's name has been cleared. /kpopchart.net
