"Why Would You Send Protest Trucks?" — Korean Netizens Are Divided After Local Fans Protest Against ENHYPEN's 'Pair Choreography' for "Bite Me"

On a local online forum, a Korean netizen shared, "ENHYPEN fandom sent a truck to delete pair choreography"



The 'pair choreography' is from ENHYPEN's newest song "BITE ME," which is the title track of their third mini album "DARK BLOOD." International fans have shown immense love and support over ENHYPEN's 'pair choreography,' with some even calling it brilliant as it unfolded a story.

Thank God for Enhypen for bringing some spice back to Kpop. Like this pair choreo is the best thing to happen in awhile. There are so many non-fans praising it everywhere too. Whatever delulu fans drop from this fandom because of it, they will gain way more fans to replace. pic.twitter.com/x5I8ISbhTH

However, when it came to domestic fans, many have expressed discomfort and have event sent mass e-mails to ENHYPEN's agency, demanding for the 'pair choreography' to be deleted. Their dislike over the choreography reached a point that they had to send protest trucks right in front of the agency's building.

The protest trucks against ENHYPEN's choreography instantly became a hot topic across different local online communities, with Korean netizens commenting:

• As a fan, I don't think I will like it too.
• It would've been okay if there wasn't a minor in the group.
• I saw it and I think it was cool.
• Honestly, I understand.. If the agency knows that the fans hate it, please change it.
• Fighting, ENHYPEN fans. Seriously, no idol fandom in the world would like that kind of thing.
• The noise marketing went well haha. Many people got to know the group through this.
• Why would you send protest trucks?
• It feels like there's always a truck at that company.
• Honestly, aren't there a few people who like that kind of pair dance?
• They're not puppets. If you don't like them, don't consume them, switch to other idols, and weed them out.
• I think foreign fans will make fun of us.
• I understand that you don't like the choreography with a girl, but sensationalizing it like this is such a stretch.
• If my idol does that, I'll send a protest truck too.
• This is why mixed groups can't come out anymore.
• Why would they even come up with a pair choreography?
• Those who aren't paying money for the group shouldn't leave an opinion.
• Bang Shi-hyuk, wake up and understand the needs of the fandom.
• After a 10-month hiatus, coming out with something like this is really bad.
• Is this really necessary?
