Recently, K-Pop and American music have intersected in an unexpected way, involving Megan Thee Stallion.

On April 25, Megan posted an Instagram update believed to be about basketball player Klay Thompson, whom she was dating. The update accused him of cheating and behaving erratically, despite her best attempts to appease him.

Later, TMZ confirmed that the two had broken up, fueling (justified) criticism of Thompson.

Megan’s love life has often been a topic of discussion, including her self-admitted sexual encounters with Tory Lanez. Tory Lanez is currently serving a 10-year prison sentence after he was convicted of three charges, including assault with a semiautomatic handgun after shooting Megan.

Many used the phrase “Free Tory” to support the male musician and express disbelief in Megan’s claims.

The phase “Free Tory” was alleged to have been copied during a fansign for LNGSHOT and given to member Woojin, who has demonstrated proof of being a fan of Tory Lanez. The idol held up a notebook with “Free Woojin” written inside after initially flipping past the message.

LNGSHOT’s Woojin

Some have called out the idol for acknowledging the alleged reference to a convicted criminal amid Megan’s break-up.

see here’s the problem he bought the shirt from a free Tory lanez campaign, which he is fully aware of, and I’m pretty sure everyone called him out the moment these photos dropped, and he still refused to issue a statement or apology. Therefore his lashings are deserved, he’s old… https://t.co/B7BiD9icjc pic.twitter.com/C1dP7jlPBn

Fans of the idol claimed that the note was a reference to a photo Woojin took with a statue of the Harry Potter character Dobby, and that the photo is taken out of context.

I dmed the person who posted the video on rednote (China socials) and asked her for context. Seriously a BIG FUCK YOU to whoever who didn't ask the fansign goers or any Chinese Lngshot Stan what they meant and dragged woojin's name through the mud. They call him dobby in China pic.twitter.com/sGrAuCC9iV

the fact that fandom refuses to delete their tweets after being provided with the full context just shows it was never about caring for women. they just like to weaponize that situation so they can project their long-existing hate for lngsh0t.
