Fans voiced their disappointment on social media, pointing out moments where Sungchan seemed to prioritize himself by adjusting his screen instead of actively engaging with fan questions. They believed this conduct hindered their experience and implied a lack of thoughtfulness.

The academic background of the member was re-evaluated.

Despite receiving criticism from one fan for his demeanor, it was noted that Sungchan had a habit of not paying attention to questions from fans and instead focusing on his own appearance during fansign events, as pointed out by others. This was not the first time such behavior had been observed from him.

Despite criticisms towards the idol, many fans defended Sungchan by pointing out his typically positive attitude towards fans. One supporter even expressed frustration at the hasty judgment, stating, “Some people are quick to label bad people as good for doing one good thing, but they curse out kind people for one mistake.”

The saying that if a bad person does one good thing, he or she is considered a pretty good person, and if a good person does one bad thing, he or she gets criticized, applies in this case https://t.co/5AQ6pZrGM0

In the wake of Sungchan’s recent comment on a fan post, there has been a flurry of reactions on social media. While some saw his words, “Let’s be together forever,”as heartwarming, others believed it hinted at his support for RIIZE as a six-member group, possibly leaving out Seunghan, who has been on hiatus since November 2023.

This explanation sparked frustration among certain BRIIZEs, who stood up for Sungchan and asserted that his statement represented all seven members of RIIZE. This event brought attention to the conflicting viewpoints and tensions within the fandom regarding the group’s future lineup and the level of support for each member.
