1. [+2,694, -308] He's a nice guy... let's please not criticize him too hard based on only what we see ㅜㅜ
2. [+2,688, -376] 'I Live Alone' would've been taken off air by now if not for Kian84! He's really unique, and let's be honest, we're all watching the show for him, aren't we?!
3. [+2,198, -256] Get better soon, Kian84 ^^ Have a happy new year everyone, and I hope you get to work less and earn more in 2020~~
4. [+134, -30] I understand he has some health issues but I don't think it's fair to hide behind his excuse of having panic disorders while saying rude things to others. Not everyone with a panic disorder acts like him, you know that, right? However, I do know that he's a kind person at heart, so I hope he works hard on his recovery!
5. [+120, -39] Having to take three times his medication isn't the point. He said some really rude things, like how there were times he wanted to kill someone, or how there isn't anyone left in his cast that he can date anymore... Those are things that sound like he planned to say beforehand, not just things he blurted out in the midst of a panic attack.
6. [+99, -105] It's a sticky issue... Even when I think I'm warming up to him... there are times where I just don't understand him at all... Not sure if he's just really one-dimensional and naive or... dumb and dirty?
7. [+98, -87] Can't he just stay off of TV? It's not like the public is begging him to stay... he should just take a break and focus on treatments.
8. [+88, -24] Perhaps it's best for himself if he took a break and rested ㅜㅜ
9. [+87, -23] I tend to be more understanding of his nervous tendencies, like the way his eyes look sometimes, since he has panic disorders and ADHD, but an award speech is something that you prepare beforehand. He should be on break if it's this hard for him. Why is he making the viewers feel nervous? What reason do we have to be understanding of that?
10. [+80, -58] Even if he is diagnosed with panic disorders, his award speech was too long and not normal at all. I had to change the channel.
11. [+55, -25] The 'I Live Alone' PD called Kian84 his 'finger that hurts the most'. I think it's worth it for us to provide a positive example of viewers giving him opportunities even when he makes mistakes, and supporting him through this.
12. [+43, -20] All sorts of people exist in this world. It's not like he harmed anyone. He's just unique and different is all. Our society should learn to embrace our differences. People in our country are too sensitive and on edge. Let's loosen up a little and be more accepting. Life's hard enough as it is.
