Yeonjun, Taehyun, and Huening Kai went live on Weverse to chat with fans, and one conversation in particular caught attention as Huening Kai told viewers, “MOA, you shouldn’t put too much trust in just what’s right in front of you.”

The other members quickly chimed in to say, “Of course, that’s not all there is to it,” while Taehyun added, “You shouldn’t trust what’s going around on the internet too much.”

On the surface, the comments came after the members discussed rumors about their upcoming unit song. Many, however, are taking the remarks as the members indirectly speaking out about the situation surrounding Soobin.

Rumors recently spread on Chinese social media alleging that Soobin had used a gay dating app to engage in a casual relationship. Photos, including sexually explicit images, which claimed to show Soobin with an unidentified man circulated alongside the speculation.

Fans quickly hit back, with many insisting the images were AI deepfakes created to attack the idol’s image. Things escalated further when the influencer who allegedly posted the photos claimed the photos were screenshots from a video and implied it wasn’t a one-off incident.

Now, some fans believe BIGHIT MUSIC may be preventing the members from talking about the issue openly, leaving them to reassure MOA subtly instead. On October 22, the company finally broke its silence on the rumors, slamming the “false information and malicious rumors” targeting its artist and vowing to take firm legal action “with no settlement or leniency.”
