J.Y. Park receives backlash after making condescending comments toward international fans who participate in his 'Groove Back' dance challenge

J.Y. Park received backlash after making condescending comments toward international fans who participate in his 'Groove Back' dance challenge.

With the release of his new digital single album 'Groove Missing', J.Y. Park invited his international fans to take part in the dance challenge for his title track "Groove Back". Many fans flocked to their social media platforms to participate in the dance challenge to have fun, while supporting J.Y. Park's comeback. J.Y. Park began reposting his fans' dance challenges to his personal Instagram, expressing excitement at their participation. However, many noticed how J.Y. Park wrote condescending comments on his fans' dancing skills, writing things such as, "Got the groove but not the move", please find and watch the dance tutorial I made. It was made for people like you", "Sweetheart, you're rotating the wrong way", and more. 

Many took offense to J.Y. Park's comments, as they seemed to be highly inappropriate to say to fans who seemed more interested in having fun, rather than auditioning to become an idol. Netizens commented, "Man forgetting that he just an idol not the pd-nim right now", "He’s been doing this for weeks", "IS this monthly evaluation", "SWEETHEART" MY A** ", etc.

What do you think about this situation?
