Kapanlagi.com - BOYNEXTDOOR, which debuted in 2023 under KOZ Entertainment, is currently a hot topic in the online world regarding the behavior of one of its members. The past of Leehan, the vocalist and visual of the group, has come under sharp scrutiny from netizens.

The pre-debut photo showing a young Leehan allegedly smoking while still underage has widely circulated and sparked controversy among netizens. These photos were taken before Leehan's debut and show smoke coming from his mouth, raising questions about the idol's behavior at a young age.

1. Pre-Debut Photo Dilemma

Leehan, known for his handsome visuals and captivating charm, now faces criticism after his pre-debut photos surfaced. In one of the photos, he appears to be exhaling smoke, leading many to speculate that he is smoking.

This controversy escalates as underage smoking is illegal in South Korea. Many netizens question how an idol could engage in behavior deemed inappropriate, especially at a school age.

2. Netizens' Reactions and Social Media

The news about Leehan quickly became trending on social media, with many negative comments from netizens. They expressed disappointment and criticized Leehan's actions as a bad example for young fans who idolize him.

Some netizens even questioned the integrity of the agency that manages BOYNEXTDOOR, namely HYBE. They feel that such actions should not occur with an idol who is supposed to be a role model for the younger generation.

3. Previous Controversy

This is not the first time Leehan has been involved in a controversy related to his past photos. Previously, a pre-debut graduation photo of his went viral because it contained words deemed inappropriate, adding to the black mark on his career journey.

In South Korean culture, graduation photos often serve as a means of self-expression, but Leehan seems to have been less careful in choosing his words. The phrase he wrote in that photo was considered inappropriate and sparked negative reactions from netizens.

4. Agency's Response and Public Reaction

As of now, KOZ Entertainment has not issued an official statement regarding the controversy involving Leehan. The public is eagerly waiting to see how the agency and Leehan himself will respond to this issue.

As a K-Pop idol, every action of Leehan, both in the past and present, can have a significant impact on his career. This controversy serves as a reminder that digital footprints and past behavior can come back to haunt an idol.
