Tweet: Sungchan’s attitude during RIIZE’s fancall
(t/n: the fan wasn’t speaking in Korean the whole time, so it was hard to understand. She said things like “I miss you and I love you” but there were instances where it was just intelligible)
A fan uploaded the full version of a video call they paid 20,000 yuan for.
And she also posted another fan call from 2 years ago
S: Hello
OP: Hello, since I’m older than Sungchanie, is it okay if I use informal speech??
S: Yes
OP: Sungchanie, you can speak casually too!
S: Yeah
OP: How does Sungchan want me to call you?
S: Me? Sungchanie
OP: I wanted to tell you something, I went to the Seoul fancon’s last concert. And Sungchanie said “this was the most beautiful moment since we debuted” right?
S: Yeah
OP: Hearing that reminded me of all the ups and downs you’ve gone through, and I got a little choked up. Still, thank you for coming to RIIZE. I’ve liked you since the NCT days, and I’m truly happy that you have a team like this. Let’s stay together for a long, long time, okay
S: (…)
OP: I prepared an acrostic poem
S: Yeah, which what?
OP: Keol-Sa-Ban-Dae, can you help me spell it out
(playing an acrostic poem game, the fan said “Do you want to marry me? I love you. Did you fall? Answer!” from the acrostic poem)
S: I’m screwed
– Do I have a PS? I don’t have any
– Thank you
– I was able to sleep soundly today
– It feels nice to have some free time and be so relaxed for once
– I have a video call fansign event later, and after that there’s a shoot too, but…
– I’m going to enjoy this little bit of downtime while I can
– You should relax too, noona
The bubble he sent before the event
1. He couldn’t even bring himself to say “ah really?”….
2. Did something bad happen to him that day..?
3. If she spent 20,000 yuan, that’s around 4.5M won (t/n: 2.9K usd). And she just ended up rambling on and on by herself. What a waste of her f*cking money…. Can’t he bring himself to say anything or at least smile genuinely? He did nothing but say “bye bye” at the end ㅠ
4. Imagine spending 4.5M won and it’s not even face to face…
5. No but that second video was from 2024, so didn’t he just debut? This is so bad. And on the first video, he just looked f*cking sleepy…
6. Wow why is he unable to give any sort of reaction…? He even looked at his watch and didn’t say a single word… Even if he didn’t understand what she was saying, at least say “thank you” or something…? He just didn’t say anything
7. I can understand he can’t understand a single word she’s saying, but it’s quite clear that he has no will to do anything about it
8. It’s understandable that international fans are clumsy with Korean and can’t speak well, but he should’ve tried to concentrate harder. Why is he giving 0 reaction?
9. He looks so tired
10. Isn’t he making it too obvious? ㅋ…. I pity the fan, who spent all her money when he still acts like that
11. His eyes look so tired
12. Wow he’s too much
13. Wow he really is giving deadpan energy
14. If you’re getting paid for this, do it well at least
15. I bet the fan was so hurt after this
