[theqoo] THE COMMENT THAT IS GETTING BACKLASH FROM RUNNING MAN FANS RIGHT NOW

"This is (our) 16 years!" (T/N: Running Man is celebrating their 16th anniversary this year. Running Man has been airing since 2010. Yang Sechan joined in 2017.)

(...)

Ji Sukjin: Sechan-ah! You're not part of the 16 years though

(Super upset)

Yang Sechan: I'm a bit upset...

(Teasing...)

Ji Sukjin: "This is our 16th year!", you shouldn't be the one saying it

(Severe hostility from established members)

Kim Jongkuk: You know how much Sechan loves Running Man though

Yang Sechan: There’s no one who loves this as much as I do...

Yang Sechan: Saying "You shouldn't do it" is...

(Wails)

"(I know it’s just for the sake of the show. I’m aware that they later smoothed things over by joking about their 16-year and 10-year tenures. I like Ji Sukjin, and I know he cares about Sechan, too! It was just that specific moment that bothered me.) But honestly, even knowing it’s all for the show, it felt really hurtful to hear as a viewer. If they’ve been together for 10 out of those 16 years, that means they’ve spent more than half that time working side by side, actually, far more than just half."

"Most viewers already know how hard Yang Sechan works, and everyone is well aware of the struggles he’s faced, stepping up as the "tank" and playing the role of the youngest member after Kwangsoo and Somin left. It’s been ten years, not just three or four, they’re practically family by now, so why talk like that? I know it’s a TV show, and I recall Jeon Somin mentioning something about Sukjin giving her a hard time when she first joined, so there might be a bit of that dynamic going on... but please, just accept him as family already. It makes me feel hurt just listening to itㅠ"

original post: here

1. What's the issue here??

2. I don't see what's wrong with what Ji Sukjin said

3. Because he's not part of the 16 years

4. Ji Sukjin gets all sorts of ridiculous forced hate all the time. There are so many "boy moms" watching variety shows

5. It’s not like Ji Sukjin was just doing a variety show bit. That’s why Yoo Jaesuk and Kim Jongkook tried to soothe him and talked about "gathering everyone up" [to address the issue], but if you watch the video, he looks genuinely hurt

6. This is seriously so forcedㅋㅋㅋ There are so many fans who didn't mind it but you're purposely showing those who do

7. It’s a fact, so what? Maybe it’s because I don’t watch Running Man and don’t get the dynamics between them, but people are making a fuss over nothing...

8. People get triggered over anything Ji Sukjin says

10. They are close at the end of the day. Let's just view this as a joke...
