Translation (@leeetttttmmmm): “Wow, he really thinks he made his money by his own hard work? I don’t have much to say because I’m thinking of the SuJu fan. Ryeowook-ah, wake up. You’re not at that level of earning money from your effort alone.”

Following this was a long post. Please see his complete caption below:
“I wish I could explain it in deep thought, but there are people who really think I don’t value my fans. How can anyone think ‘you,’ a fan, when I said (it’s not the money I earned because of you, it’s the money I worked hard for)?
People swear at me by saying ‘He thinks the money he earned was all thanks to himself when it’s because of his fans’ and ‘I pity his fans, I’d be hurt if I were them.’
Do you think you’re allowed to do anything you want and leave hate comments just because you’ve spent money on me? Isn’t this a power trip? Why can’t I give it back when I’m hurt?
Are celebrities not human beings? Do you think I should just endure all the hurt? I guess there will only be AI celebrities left in the future.
I don’t consider haters who spend money on me and leave hate comments to hurt me as ‘fans.’ I’m not earning money because of you, but I have my real fans who get angry, stand by me, and cheer me on just like the bad people who are cursing me right now.
My fans are the precious people who believe in me and who have been with me in the past. They will be with me in the future, as they are the ones who have helped me along the way. I hope you know that your face won’t be visible since you typed text that you’ll regret in the future.”
“There are seriously too many people who spend money on celebrities and become super weird after. What’s up with the power trip?”
“Ryeowook needs to start suing too, the haters need to all go to the police station.”
“Why are people unable to keep basic manners?”
“Honestly, he is 100% correct in both the first comment and this post.”
“Ryeowook is the weirdest person to hate. He’s talented and spent this whole time minding his own business, not getting into controversies like literally his entire group lol.”
