Was Wonho bullied?

Wonho has been known to be comfortable in his body as the K-pop crooner often takes to Instagram to flaunt his abs and causes a meltdown on social media. But his fans are of the opinion that a singer should be respected and not just sexualized for his body. Fans have also claimed that Wonho has stopped posting thirst trap pictures because of the comments he got on Instagram.



 

A fan said, “People bullied him on Instagram till the point he changed what he posted. It's so sad because he only told us to listen his MV but people commented weird things so he changed it ~ He always tries to read what our fandom write to him so we think he read those comments!” And added, “He's the sweetest person. He always asks how we are doing, "Make sure to eat your meals" "Sleep well" "I love you" Even when he's extremely busy or tired, he comes to say sweet words to us~ He's not just a body~ Respect WONHO Respect Lee Hoseok!”



 



 

A fan pointed out, “The fact that not only female idols getting sexualized but also male idols and it's getting out of hand. STOP SEXUALIZING KOREAN IDOLS! Wonho is also a great and amazing artist, so please respect and protect him at all cost. RESPECT WONHO!” A user shared, “I can't believe WENEED to trend this for you guys to understand that he's an artist. He has the right to express himself freely. Post things that he likes, makes music that he likes, do things that he likes. Just leave him alone.” Another said, "if you all bullied wonho into stopping his thirst traps i will never forgive you!"



 



 



 

While Wonho directly hasn't talked about this, his fans raising awareness about K-pop idols getting sexualized will start a conversation, K-pop users believe.
