“…got that child shirtless…”
Koreaboo
CORTIS member Seonghyeon has sparked major concerns after his recent shirtless photoshoot sparked anger about sexualizing underage idols.
CORTIS are appearing on the upcoming editions of W Korea, all with their own covers, photoshoots, and brands for their looks.

Netizens were shocked to see one of CORTIS’s youngest members Seonghyeon, who was born in 2009, shirtless in the photos.

The comments were full of concerned fans who didn’t think it was appropriate for an idol who had just turned 17 a few months ago.

Away from the tweet itself, the discourse became huge on social media, with netizens criticizing the publication. Many also hit back at the idea of the idol agreeing and being comfortable shirtless, explaining how different it is when it is in a room full of adults and being used for a photoshoot.
okay but why have they got that child shirtless 😭 zip that shit up @wkorea
