Agency Fantagio revealed recently, "Seo Kang Jun has requested an official investigation into the netizens who maliciously criticize him and circulate groundless rumors.  Criticism is possible, but the criticism has become attacks, which is not acceptable," revealing themselves to be on the brink of taking legal steps to counter all the hate.

It appears that a lot of the hate derives from the fact that his character in 'Cheese in the Trap' started to have more screen time than the lead played by Park Hae Jin, so fans took to attacking him for this, even leaving mean comments under reports about his variety show appearances.
