SEVENTEEN’s Seungkwan recently appeared on BDNS’ YouTube channel, and more than the content, a comment on the clip has caught netizens’ attention. It turns out that a school friend of the idol wrote an interesting anecdote about a bullying incident. The long comment talks about how Seungkwan saved the poster from an unwanted incident.

Although they weren’t close friends, the OP stated that Seungkwan bravely stood up for him. According to Koreaboo, the comment read, “I went to elementary school with Seungkwan. We weren’t the closest of friends, but we were friends. When we transferred to middle school, an all-boys school, some kids started misbehaving to be seen as cool. It was during our first year there that I was bullied by ‘Kid A’ at the school snack shop. I was buying munchies when A, who I’d never met before, approached me and asked me to lend him 100 won. I had already splurged on munchies, so I was out of money. When I told A this, A grabbed me by the collar and scolded me before going back to his classroom. I was scared that A might beat me up, but I was also upset that I had been treated like that. So I was in a terrible mood when Seungkwan found me and started talking to me. He asked me what was wrong. When I explained to him what happened, Seungkwan held my hand and urged me to come with him to get an apology from A. At first, I told Seungkwan that I didn’t want an apology because I was afraid of A. But Seungkwan insisted that if I let the incident go, A would do it again. Seungkwan convinced me that I should let A know that what he did was wrong and that if I confronted him about it, he would never treat me badly again.”


The commentary further explained, “When Seungkwan and I went to A’s classroom and A came out to confront us, I was completely at a loss and couldn’t say anything. Seungkwan confronted A on my behalf and asked him if he really asked me for money and scolded me. Seungkwan was so logical when he spoke. That was the first time I realized that you can win an argument without raising your voice and using foul language. A eventually apologized to me and never messed with me again. That was back when BIGBANG was popular. Seungkwan told everyone that he wanted to be a K-pop idol. Some of the other immature kids mocked him for that dream. But Seungkwan was so confident in his dream. That deeply impressed me and I wondered if he could achieve his dream. So when I come across videos like this, it intrigues me and fills me with so much respect for him. Seungkwan would always blow in my face and ask me to check if his bad breath. That used to annoy me so much. But joking aside, Seungkwan was such a righteous kid. Now that I think about it, he hasn’t changed at all. He was born different. I don’t know if he remembers me, but I remember him as my bright friend who controls his breath. I’m sure his fans know, but he’s such a good person. I didn’t mean to make such a long comment, but I didn’t mean to sound too serious or rude. Haha.”
