It saw similar comments about Yoonchae and sexuality.

Netizens tried to defend the idol, explaining that it wasn’t that deep and even that on one of the recent shows, Yoonchae was seen holding one of the flags.

But netizens pointed out that she seemed uncomfortable, and the members shouldn’t force it upon Yoonchae.
