SEVENTEEN’s Seungkwan could no longer hold his peace and ended up speaking his heart out highlighting that “idols are not items to be used”.
On October 29, Seungkwan shared a heartwarming message on Instagram pleading for more humanity. This message comes amidst recently released reports of HYBE’s internal documents critiquing idols of other agencies.
In the post, Seungkwan admitted that he could no longer stand back as the situation was worsening. The artist highlighted that fans and other artists work so hard. He added that artists give all they have to share their positive energy with their fans. Seungkwan pointed out that being an idol isn’t something he as an artist should have to endure while it eats him away. The star emphasized that artists should not be underestimated nor are they items to be used however users deem profitable.
Seungkwan added that it takes a toll on idols as they strive every moment while on stage. The star concluded by expressing his hopes that the industry would be a little bit more considerate and kind. Seungkwan highlighted that his heart breaks watching others give in and give up. He requested that people should not cause pain if they cannot afford to be accountable. Seungkwan also shared a personal note from fellow idol Haewon, an NMIXX member, which also echoed a similar message. Seungkwan ended the note in gratitude wishing everyone happiness and good health.
