"Ugh you guys are driving me crazy. I never watched his stream when he was doing those gross things you guys are saying he does. I watched him by coincidence one morning while watching other things. What? You lost respect for me after this?? If you know me well, you'd know that I'm not that kind of person. What clarification are you demanding from me? I can't stop you from losing respect for me but I'm not that type of person. Let's stop talking about this."

-

1. [+1,827, -161] But Chulgoo's stream is trash... definitely not suited for minors.

2. [+1,208, -336] He's practically fighting with his fans on Instagram... I get that he's angry because he feels that he didn't do anything but his fans are still trying to piece together some proper feedback since it's a sensitive issue but instead of explaining what happened, he keeps expressing his anger at his fans and fighting with them. How different from Yoon Doojoon's feedback a few days ago...

3. [+783, -84] No one's yelling at him for watching Afreeca, it's because he watched Chulgoo of all people;

4. [+131, -18] After reading his clarification, he totally seems like the type to watch Chulgoo

5. [+129, -13] Even normal men know to skip Chulgoo's streams so for a celebrity to openly give him a stream donation, well.. ㅋㅋ

6. [+92, -15] The only idiots who enjoy Chulgoo's streams are kids still in school. Adult men don't watch him.

7. [+80, -12] Watching Chulgoo's streams is basically like admitting you're an Ilbe member ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

8. [+80, -8] Why would anyone watch someone so pathetic

9. [+50, -4] When is this guy going in the army? He's already 30 years old, stop delaying it, not even like his group is putting out any albums. Hurry and serve already.

10. [+36, -4] Why is he talking like that?

Article: Lee Hongki under controversy for watching BJ Chulgoo, it's always the one who farted who gets the angriest

1. [+1,030, -175] I like that article title ㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+1,014, -115] I remember before Chulgoo put out his album, he said that he had celebrity friends too and bragged about how Lee Hongki is a viewer of his stream

3. [+253, -43] The fact that he even watched it once is already proof that he's an idiot. Farewell.

4. [+115, -25] What coincidence!!!! Chulgoo is always swearing and saying misogynistic things about women all stream long!!! How is that considered entertainment at all? Seems Lee Hongki would watch a stream that even puts his own mother down if he thought it was funny.

5. [+91, -15] I can understand watching a few streams out of curiosity but being a consistent viewer means that you agree with his ideas too

6. [+84, -10] Not Chulgoo of all streamers. I don't care how many times he's viewed him, the fact that he's a consumer of his content at all means that he agrees with those ideas.

7. [+76, -18] I'm a woman and I've always hated Lee Hongki so much. All those rumors... and just the way he looks, he looks like an iljin..

8. [+72, -8] Why is he speaking informally to his fans like that? Even Lee Soon Jae and Jo Yong Pil still speak formally to their fans. Fans are adults too, have some respect for them.

1. [+5,453, -749] I get that he's free to watch what he wants but it's wrong of him to donate money to a streamer who makes light of national tragedies...

2. [+2,661, -303] Of all the streams to watch, he chose Chulgoo's ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ Actually, everyone should be more open with what kind of streamers they watch so that I can skip them from my life ㅋㅋㅋ

3. [+1,151, -69] Chulgoo is pretty much an ilbe member ㅋㅋㅋㅋ no normal person would watch his stream

4. [+2,036, -1,351] There's nothing wrong with either Yoon Doojoon and Lee Hongki. Don't witch hunt them.

5. [+673, -42] Fans are speaking formally to him while he speaks informally back ㅋㅋㅋ Lee Hongki would be under fire for attitude issues already if he was a female celebrity tsk tsk... kids who like him really need to wake up.

6. [+1,306, -858] Isn't he free to watch whatever he wants?

7. [+380, -5] Really shows how well Yoon Doojoon handled this

8. [+377, -20] Chulgoo is such trash ㅋㅋㅋ why is he yelling at his fans all informally like that, like he did anything good?
