The 1975's lead vocalist, Matthew Healy, was seen stepping on the Korean flag in his Instagram picture. 

The band had recently performed in Seoul when the vocalist posted a mirror selfie of himself while stepping on the Korean flag that fans gave him from his concert. He was criticized for stepping on the Korean flag and his response brought up further anger when he stated that "it's quite obviously my flag."

Healy deleted the photo from his Instagram but he's being met with heavy criticism from netizens who are saying:

"Is he insane?"

"Idiots. I was going to listen to them but I'm not anymore."

"You're a problem if you think you can step on the flag just because that item is yours you f***ing idiot."

"How ignorant smh."

What do you think?
