Yet, when the video was posted, RM was met with a lot of ridicule.
Some fans pointed out that he was faking his injury because of the way he was using crutches, and there were also speculations that he swapped legs. Others thought he was trying to get sympathy by using the crutches at the airport, with many calling out the idol and sharing harsh reactions to him.

Korean idols are so weird. If they’re injured, why don’t they take a private route and use a wheelchair? Instead of walking so desperately to get coverage and garner sympathy. https://t.co/liNHuFT9wC
