Following his controversy involving Japanese comedian/film director Kitano Takeshi, Koo Jun Hoe has found himself as the subject of another international issue. According to reports, the iKON member received some criticism for a statement at the YG Entertainment group's 'iKON 2018 Continue Tour' concert in Taipei, Taiwan on September 22.

Koo June Hoe reportedly said to the 3500 iKON fans gathered at the NTSU Arena, "I'm the YG BOSS, Chinese fans." His statement allegedly shocked his fellow iKON members as well as the audience, who yelled in response, "Taiwanese." He then reportedly said quickly, "Everyone, I love you," in Chinese. 

Considering the sensitive relationship between China and Taiwan, it seems Koo Jun Hoe's words made a negative impact on some fans at the Taipei concert. 

As previously reported, Koo Jun Hoe is currently under fire for his Instagram post on Kitako Takeshi and his response to fans who expressed concern.
