Although there are those who pay no
attention to the overly used middle finger, there are also those who take it as
no laughing matter. Thus, it is not surprising that SHINee‘s Onew‘s recent
appearance on a radio broadcast has sparked some criticism.
On the March 18th broadcast of ‘Younha’s Starry Night‘, Some
of the SHINee members featured as guests to talk about their comeback and touch
upon various subjects. Prior to the members’ introductions, their faces were not
shown during this particular segment on camera, but netizens spotted someone
giving his middle finger on screen. The color and print of the mystery man’s
outfit later pointed the identity to Onew, raising eyebrows.
Netizens flocked to the comment boards and expressed their shock responding,
“Since it is a radio broadcast that can be seen, it was careless of him to
stick up the middle finger”, “Why is he doing that when he knows there is a
camera?”, “I don’t know if it’s because Onew always had an innocent
image, but I’m disappointed”, “Can it really be Onew?” and more.
However, there were others that came to his defense with comments like,
“Isn’t he just joking around? He probably didn’t realize that could be
seen”, “It seems like Onew was just playing around with his members”, “It might
just be another sign that shows just how close he is with his members” and
more.
As you know, this isn’t the first time that an idol star was criticized for
giving the middle finger as of recently, as Jay Park previously received backlash for his
Instagram picture.
