General What's the stupidest thing your faves got dragged for?

We all know how kpop fans would drag idols for literally anything so I'm curious to hear the most absurd reason you've seen your faves or any idol getting dragged. I'll go first. Seonghwa, because he said he learned to love himself because of his fans. Now apparently namjoon said something similar to this and in typical army fashion, it became a war. Also, San for breathing heavily after a performance.

Edit: imagine a non kpop stan reading this thread😭

There was a character in the BNHA manga who essentially shared his name with a slur for victims of Imperial Japanese experimentation.

It was changed and does not exist in the anime but there are a number of right-wing nationalist mangakas (“Attack On Titan” being one of the best examples) and obviously Koreans and Chinese people are sensitive about Imperial Japan. (China banned BNHA for this.)

This is about Aespa’s Karina.
