• Netizens Upset Over Allegations on RIIZE's Anton who Allegedly Disrespecting Koreans on Suspected "Secret Instagram Account"

    The recent dating scandal involving RIIZE member Anton has sparked further controversy as netizens bring up new allegations and past controversies.

    Some netizens claim that a now-deleted private Instagram account with the username "ilovesamsungsomuch" belonged to Anton.

    They interpret the username as a sarcastic dig at the well-known Korean electronics brand, 'Samsung', which could be perceived as disrespectful or derogatory.

    Additionally, the scrutiny surrounding Anton's dating scandal has reignited discussions about past controversies involving his father, musician Yoon Sang.

    Yoon Sang faced investigation by the Military Manpower Administration in his twenties for allegedly attempting to avoid mandatory military service by obtaining Argentinian citizenship.

    After facing pressure from the police, including the threat of being listed on Interpol, Yoon Sang ultimately renounced his Argentinian citizenship and fulfilled his military service obligation as an active duty soldier.

    These new allegations and the revisiting of past controversies have further fueled debates and discussions among netizens on various online platforms.

    Korean netizens commented,

    "I guess Yoon Sang's son is just going to give up his Korean citizenship when the time comes for him to get his physical examination for his military service assignment."
    "Like father like son."
    "Forget the dating scandal. If that secret account is really his, he's as rotten as they get. Both of his parents are Korean and it just so happened that he was born in America. He thinks he can insult Korea?"
    "Time for another apology letter."
    "Take away his Korean citizenship and deport him back to where he came from."
    "If this is true, he can kiss his career goodbye? Only crazy fans care about dating scandals, but regular people will have his head over this."
    "I'd love to see him go back to his country and try to make it as a musician there. Oh wait, he can't."
    "He can act all high and mighty however much he wants but to the eyes of all other Americans, you're just as Korean as any of us kekekekeke."
    "This boy thinks he has blue eyes and blonde hair."
    "Kick him out, RIIZE only needs 4 members."
