On Soompi a comment brought up he used a slur, which the article doesn’t really address. Anyone know what he said?

Oh ok I see this on reddit by user traytray-454

For those confused on why he is apologising, it has more to do with the word he used and its korean meaning.

asianjunkie quotes - Fans took this the wrong way as the term “energy-sucking” in Korean is often used to refer to situations involving cliques of women in Korea. It is used commonly to patronize and subtly put down women under the stereotype that women are cattier than men.

The article then goes on to say he then started blocking people and doubled down when called out so it's being read as a man who is intimidated by strong women so feels the need to bring them down with snide comments.

Ah that makes sense. Thanks for the explanation.

At first I was like yeah that makes sense that he would be more nervous around lots of women than men, but this context changes things.
