Former NCT member Lucas, who recently debuted solo with the single album “Renegade,” has faced significant ridicule following his return to the spotlight amidst previous controversies.
Lucas’s comeback has been met with condemnation from netizens, criticizing his audacity to reappear in public after past accusations of gaslighting, dating fans, and cheating.
On April 4, Lucas held a fan sign event with a mere 30 attendees, prompting mockery and scornful remarks, particularly from Chinese netizens. Comments highlighted the sparse turnout, with one netizen humorously noting that there were more ex-girlfriends of Lucas than fans at the event.
Social Media Reaction
Netizens expressed second-hand embarrassment upon viewing photos from the under-attended fan sign, labelling the situation as a “huge joke.”
Criticism Over Thank-You Message Error
Further fueling criticism, Lucas made a language error in his post-fansign thank-you message. Instead of using the appropriate word “leave,” Lucas inadvertently used “go,” leading to a message that appeared dismissive of the fan sign event.
Despite his solo debut, Lucas continues to face harsh scrutiny and ridicule from netizens, highlighting ongoing challenges in rehabilitating his public image.
