Wonbin of RIIZE Caught Smoking Ahead of Seunghan’s Controversial Comeback

On October 12, a discussion titled “Leaked Video of Wonbin Smoking” appeared on the Korean forum Pann Nate, quickly gaining traction with over 50,000 views within just a few hours.

This discussion featured a clip shared on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter), which bore the caption, “241008 Witnessed Wonbin Smoking.” This suggested that the incident involving Wonbin smoking occurred on October 8.

However, upon reviewing this topic, many users expressed skepticism, asserting that the video might be fabricated and sharing their perspectives and reasoning.

There were also allegations that the video was shared with ill intentions, aimed at maligning other members of RIIZE in light of the backlash surrounding Seunghan’s return.

Here are some reactions from netizens:

This is hilarious. The video only shows his back, so how can we confirm it’s Wonbin?

Wonbin wore different clothes that day, and since the original post has been removed, it’s likely this video is fake.

RIIZE really is in a tough spot. Because of Seunghan’s issues, the other members are dealing with a flood of criticism.

Right after Seunghan’s return was announced, the other members started facing attacks.

If the person posting intended to take a picture, they could have snapped one of the front too; why just the back?

It’s so obvious that as soon as Seunghan’s comeback was announced, antis began fabricating stories about other members.

On a separate note, SM Entertainment recently confirmed that Seunghan will be rejoining RIIZE after a break of 10 months.

Previously, the idol faced numerous controversies concerning his personal affairs, leading to significant protests from Korean fans regarding his return.
