- “Since this is Jay Park’s rookie group, none of this is really surprising. And any member involved in controversy should be kicked out early in their debut.”
- “‘Free Tory’ ;;;”
- “No, ‘Free Tory’ really crosses the line.”
Earlier, some fans had defended Woojin, claiming he was just a fan of Lanez’s music. After the viral photo, those excuses were met with further criticism.
