TWICE Chaeyeong fires back at people spreading rumors about her indoor smoking.

On the 12th, Chaeyoung took to a fan communication platform to voice her frustration, stating, "I was going to stay quiet, but I’m bringing this up because there’s been so much talk about cigarettes." She clarified, "It wasn't a cigarette; I was drinking a beverage. Take a closer look."

She went on to vent her frustration, saying, “I was just having fun, but it’s so exhausting,” and added, “Would I really do something like that openly in a place crowded with people? I’m not that thoughtless.”

Previously, allegations of indoor smoking arose after a video circulated on online communities showing Chaeyoung turning around and bringing her hand to her mouth at an event held at the Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP) in Seoul.[Nate]

A video showing Chinese singer Huang Zitao (Tao), formerly of the group EXO, slapping his wife, Xu Yiyang, across the cheek sparked controversy as it circulated online. However, the original video revealed a completely different situation.

On the 11th, a past live stream featuring Tao and Xu Yiyang went viral across YouTube and various social media platforms, with titles such as "Tao criticized for crossing the line with his prank." The video has garnered significant attention and a massive number of views.

The released video shows Tao reaching toward Xu Yiyang's face while the two were conversing. As the footage continues to show Xu Yiyang appearing to slap Tao on the cheek, some online observers speculated whether the couple was engaging in rough horseplay.

However, the actual original footage told a different story. While the two were playing a game and playfully teasing each other, Xu Yiyang slapped Tao on the cheek, and Tao took it in stride with a smile. They continued to laugh and joke around afterward.

Furthermore, a comparison video placed the "original footage" side-by-side with the "doctored footage," illustrating how the context had been altered during editing. Consequently, online reactions emphasize that one should not jump to conclusions about the actual situation based solely on a short, edited clip. [Nate]
