The controversy has triggered a discussion, as fans express their thoughts on social media. Some are convinced that NewJeans deliberately showed disrespect towards Eunchae, considering the ongoing legal conflicts between ADOR and HYBE, which involve Min Hee Jin’s alleged targeting of LE SSERAFIM.

On the other hand, a considerable number of fans are standing up for NewJeans and claiming that the interruption was unintentional. They refer to the recent episode of Music Bank, where Eunchae and NewJeans had a playful exchange, to prove that there is no animosity between them. Some supporters are even denouncing the criticism as a “witch hunt.”

The intense public scrutiny and fan battles are placing immense pressure on groups such as NewJeans and LE SSERAFIM, making it increasingly difficult for them to make public appearances without attracting controversy.

The situation has caused a division within the K-pop community. A fan expressed, “It’s evident that NewJeans did not mean any disrespect. This is being exaggerated.”Another fan pointed out, “Given the ongoing tension between ADOR and HYBE, this seemed intentionally directed. NewJeans should have exercised caution.”

The ongoing dispute regarding whether NewJeans showed disrespect towards Eunchae or if the level of anger is exaggerated remains a heated topic of discussion.
