HYBE Idol Goes Viral For “Green Flag” Comment

TWS‘ Shinyu is earning praise online after his unexpectedly serious reaction during a recent singing variety show appearance.

During the program, a vocal impersonation contestant jokingly directed a message toward his girlfriend, saying, “Forgive me. It’s an order.” However, Shinyu immediately looked visibly baffled by the wording and reacted with disbelief.

모창능력자분이 여자친구한테 한 마디 하셨는데 “용서해 명령이야” 하시니까 신유 완전 어이털린 표정으로 “명령??? 명령이라고 하셨나요 지금…?” 하는 거 개좋네 ㅁㅊ 입덕… pic.twitter.com/1g74sGn2YJ

The impersonater said a few words to his girlfriend on air, and was like ‘forgive me, that’s an order,’ so Shinyu was totally dumbfounded and said ‘order? Did he just say order?’ I totally love him for that. Biased him immediately.

His genuinely shocked expression quickly went viral online, with many netizens praising the idol for instinctively reacting negatively to the phrase.

As someone who’s really close to his sister, Shinyu was really offended by this because he’ll not want his sister be treated like that.
