Seventeen's Joshua looks haggard as he heads to Japan following dating scandal

Seventeen's Joshua, who had recently been entangled in a dating scandal with an influencer, was seen heading to Japan for his next schedule.

Joshua was seen at the Gimpo International Airport on August 17.

Upon reaching the departure area, Joshua greeted photographers by slightly bowing his head. He proceeded to give a light smile but still looked despondent.

After seeing his latest photos, there were fans who still expressed their support for the idol.

They commented, "Shua, it bothers me that you lost weight so I keep logging on. Please eat well and do well. Wow, I still cheer for you. But are the comments for real? It's like he committed a crime. No matter how I think of it, the people who ridicule and get angry even though they're not his fans are really just mentally ill people," "He lost weight," "His face is halved," "There was so much commotion so of course his face got thin," "Have a safe trip," "Don't mind the harsh comments and just be happy with your girlfriend," "His face is halved...well, it was a commotion that hasn't happened for a while," "I'm a fan but I wish people stop doing that to Shua. It's not like he committed a crime. People are ridiculing him so much it's sickening," and "Seems like he went through some heartache but what can we do...he needs to take responsibility and endure since he did it to himself."
