RIIZE's Seunghan will be taking an indefinite hiatus following the leak of various private photos and videos of him.

This news has sparked significant attention on the Korean forum "theqoo" where a post titled "Seunghan has been deleted from RIIZE's Instagram account" has garnered nearly 70,000 views and over 300 comments.

The post shares screenshots of RIIZE's Instagram highlights, revealing that there used to be introduction highlights for all seven members, but Seunghan's highlight has been removed after the announcement of his activity suspension.

It is worth noting that prior to this, pre-debut photos and videos of Seunghan were released, resulting in controversy and ultimately leading to his indefinite hiatus. The comments from Korean netizens regarding this issue are quite mixed.

Some express sadness over Seunghan being punished due to malicious intent, while others call for his removal from the group.

A few samples of the netizens' comments include: - "Wow, SM is acting fast." - "He should just withdraw from the group." - "Remove him from RIIZE already." - "It makes me sad to see that malice has achieved its purpose." - "To be honest, it wasn't that big of an issue. But in the idol industry where so many people are sick in their minds, it's so easy to call things crimes and point fingers. I feel sorry that he has to be sworn at and threatened over something like this. Not asking fans to fangirl over him, just expressing my thoughts on the industry." - "Are they putting him on hiatus in case something worse happens later? I don't like the word 'hiatus,' just leave." - "The idol industry in this country is insane…"

During the show, Lee Jun Young was asked about the most unforgettable villain he’s played. He chose his role as Han Su Gang in the film Brave Citizen.

The hosts were surprised, pointing out how kind and gentle he seems in real life. Lee Jun Young shared how he transforms for such roles.

“I try to act as bad as I can, but sometimes the director says, ‘You still look too nice.’ Then I focus even harder and adjust right away.”

He also revealed that filming one particular scene hit him hard emotionally. “My real grandmother was sick at the time,” he said.

“In one scene, there’s a grandma selling gimbap, and I ad-libbed by stubbing a cigarette out on the gimbap. I was really into character, but after filming, I just broke down. So many thoughts came to me and I started crying.”

Fans praised his dedication to acting but also felt moved by how deeply the role affected him. Lee Jun Young’s honesty gave a raw look at how even fictional roles can hit close to home.
