Netizens accuse RIIZE's Anton of belittling Koreans on a suspected 'secret Instagram account'

AKP STAFF

While RIIZE member Anton's recent dating scandal continues to stir up debates on various online communities, some netizens are directing new accusations against Anton.

According to some netizens, a private Instagram account with the name "ilovesamsungsomuch" belonged to RIIZE's Anton before it was eventually deleted. 

The netizens then claimed that the username is a sarcastic jab at Koreans by belittling the well-known Korean electronics brand, 'Samsung'.

Furthermore, Anton's recent dating scandal has also brought up past controversies surrounding his father, musician Yoon Sang.

In the past, Yoon Sang was investigated by the Military Manpower Administration in his twenties for attempting to avoid mandatory service by acquiring Argentinian citizenship. Eventually, after the police threatened to place his name on Interpol, Yoon Sang gave up his Argentinian citizenship and enlisted as an active duty soldier.

Korean netizens commented,

"I guess Yoon Sang's son is just going to give up his Korean citizenship when the time comes for him to get his physical examination for his military service assignment."
"Like father like son."
"Forget the dating scandal. If that secret account is really his, he's as rotten as they get. Both of his parents are Korean and it just so happened that he was born in America. He thinks he can insult Korea?"
"Time for another apology letter."
"Take away his Korean citizenship and deport him back to where he came from."
"If this is true, he can kiss his career goodbye? Only crazy fans care about dating scandals, but regular people will have his head over this."
"I'd love to see him go back to his country and try to make it as a musician there. Oh wait, he can't."
"He can act all high and mighty however much he wants but to the eyes of all other Americans, you're just as Korean as any of us kekekekeke."
"This boy thinks he has blue eyes and blonde hair."
"Kick him out, RIIZE only needs 4 members."

Jesus christ, I don't even follow Riize but I just see controversy after controversy. There has to be someone close to these boys that is trying to sabotage them or something because this is genuinely getting insane.

I'm really starting to suspect someone is out to smear these boys no matter what.
