NCT’s Haechan is facing criticism from netizens in the aftermath of his e-cigarette controversy. Following earlier reports of Haechan smoking indoors, SM Entertainment issued an apology, acknowledging the concerns raised by his actions. The agency expressed remorse, promising precautions to prevent a recurrence, and confirmed that Haechan would be responsible for the fine related to indoor smoking.
Initially, some fans defended Haechan, suggesting he was eating a chocolate bar. However, after SM Entertainment’s confirmation of his indoor smoking, netizens are now expressing disapproval of his behavior. Comments include sentiments like, “I’m shocked he smoked indoors. Don’t do it again,” “Did he not know he was being filmed,” and “Such a predictable ending. Smoke outside, please.” The shift in reactions has prompted discussions on the issue.
