Pre-debut photos of DAY6's Young K are causing a stir online.

On September 6, photos from Young K's school days became a hot topic on Nate's online community Pann under the title, "Wow, this is DAY6's Young K?" Along with the photos, the poster wrote, "I was trying to get into the fandom despite my doubts, but then I discovered this and just gave up. Everyone was promoting with a clean image, but this is right there on Pinterest? It's really surprising, and the first picture is from middle school. Was I the only one who didn't know? Ugh."

The photos feature pre-debut photos of Young K during his school days in Canada. Some netizens stated they're typical photos students take, and other netizens claimed the OP was attempting to bring down DAY6 because of the success of their recent comeback with "Melt Down".

Netizens commented, "What's the issue with the photos," "He's allowed to kiss people. You'd think he was underage drinking and smoking," "That's crazy. I used to think he was likeable, but he looks like a mess from these photos. You can't trust celebrities' images," "The fact that we can tell what the OP is trying to do is so funny," "People would know during their debut days, Young K's image was always as the delinquent or mischievous one," and more.
