Yet, while netizens loved sharing moments from the concert, a video from the send-off session has sparked fury.
Netizens shared a video of a fan in the crowd calling Jake a homophobic slur and while the idol might not have understood the meaning at the time, it incited major fury among netizens.
i don’t care if it was meant as a joke and i don’t care if jke didn’t understand what you said. calling him a slur in your language to his face is still incredibly disrespectful wtf so many fans would give anything for the chance to meet him, have a genuine conversation or just…

…at what point is enough, enough? like genuinely? calling jake a slur to his face is a new low. it genuinely can’t be this hard to just treat the members with basic respect and dignity. https://t.co/dcJ4X3Jfsr

Reminder that ENHYPEN are not your friends. As disappointed as you may be because you couldn’t get your little selfie nothing gives you the right to call Jake the f-word. “He didn’t understand” Well thankfully??? What kind of crazy world do we live in?? https://t.co/YvOI7qXa8l
