DK from K-pop group Seventeen faces backlash from fans

K-pop group Seventeen member DK is receiving backlash from fans after he was allegedly seen texting at a fan event. Though some fans are defending the idol and claiming that it was simply a misunderstanding.

On March 3rd, a Chinese fan of the band spoke up about her experience at the recent BSS fan video call event. According to the fan, she noticed DK texting on his phone for around 30 seconds while he was still on call with her.

She claimed that she noticed him doing so when she asked to take a selfie and saw the reflection of his phone screen on his glasses. She also shared a recording of the video call.

Many fans were upset after hearing about the situation since it’s extremely difficult for them to get a chance to go on a call with idols. Though some took to defending DK, sharing another clip where a phone screen could be seen reflected in his glasses even though he had both of his hands in front of his face.
