A fancam from earlier in the year showed Minhyuk and Wonho interacting with fans. In the video, Minhyuk puts his mic on Wonho's chest and asks, "Nipple-ssi, please say something" to which Wonho puts his hand up and shouts, "Me too".

1. [+607, -21] At least their fans know what's right.. way more mature than fans who defend their idols no matter what they do!
2. [+298, -8] If even the fans are demanding an apology from him, does the member not feel anything at all?
3. [+313, -44] He's not only a man but an idol with the adoration of many female fans. He will never know what it feels like to loser power in a sexual assault. Even if fans demand an apology from him, they will never receive one that is genuine and heartfelt. His mindset about this is all wrong and he's going to make the same mistake again, all the while wondering like other men "what did I do so wrong?"... and he's going to hate his fans for it in the end. A lot of fans have already turned their backs on him over this, me included, so farewell.
4. [+249, -13] This is what a real fandom is. To right what's wrong.
5. [+91, -10] Why would he make such a mistake?
6. [+58, -8] If Shownu is what gets people into the fandom, Wonho is what makes people leave... he was already caught drinking and smoking as a minor in the past, and now he was caught making a joke out of the Me Too movement..
7. [+50, -8] If your career is off the money and love of women, shouldn't you show some basic respect towards them? ㅋㅋ At least apologize immediately if you made a mistake like this, you're not some 5 year old child... you're a man facing 30, do we really need to be explaining things one at a time to you?
8. [+42, -6] Making a joke out of Me Too while living off of the money of female consumers... what an easy life male idols have

1. [+193, -23] Why is the agency apologizing instead of the people who made the mistake?
2. [+131, -14] This is what happens when you let people with rocks for brains become singers
3. [+100, -14] What do you expect when they have empty brains.........
4. [+16, -0] "There was no intention at all"...? Who would believe that ㅋ
5. [+11, -0] Once a group starts with a scandal, scandals will always follow no matter what. Their thug tendencies don't just disappear ㅋ
