MBC’s music show Music Core is facing backlash after fans noticed the sudden removal of ATEEZ member San’s fancam from their YouTube channel.
The deletion came hours after the boy group performed their new title track, “Adrenaline.”
Fans point out that during the performance, San was visibly sweating, a natural result of the group’s intense and complex choreography. His sweat stains on a light-colored T-shirt did not go unnoticed, but many were shocked to see the video removed shortly afterward.

MBC’s abrupt deletion of the video has sparked massive confusion and frustration among fans online. While the exact reasoning behind MBC’s decision remains unconfirmed, the timing and context have led fans to speculate that the fancam was taken down because of the sweat stains.
If they deleted San’s Adrenaline fancam because he had sweaty underarms that’s crazy he’s a human of course he’s gonna sweat after a dancing to that kind of choreography

ATEEZ’s performances are known for their precision and energy, with fans celebrating the members’ dedication to live choreography. Removing a video for such a minor and natural reason has only intensified the backlash.

idk if this is a real reason behind it or is it just an assumption but did they really delete san’s fancam because of sweat stain…? do they know human SWEATS and its so normal for a performer who performs with his all to sweat…? its so annoying when people even get crazy over…

Taking down Adrenaline San’s fancam for no reason is disrespectful. That iconic video needs to be restored. Do better! @MBC_entertain #mbcrespectsan pic.twitter.com/OJ2JtNvnTP

Many are now urging MBC to restore the fancam and acknowledge the performers’ hard work, rather than focusing on harmless physical details.
