On February 20 KST, the Federation of Korean Industries held its 64th General Meeting. 

On this day, chairman Bang Si Hyuk attended the meeting as a representative of HYBE Labels, newly joining the Federation as a member alongside stock trading platform Dunamu. 

What caught the attention of netizens was the chairman's changed appearance. 

Many commented,

"His impression changed so much from what I remember."

"He looks very unhappy. At least when he weighed more, he looked content.."

"He looks almost sinister now that he's lost some of that weight."

"What happened to him..? He used to look so much more.. round and content??"

"His face literally screams, 'I lived a dirty life and my face shows it'."

"He looks so old.."

"They say the older you get, the more your character shows on your face.."

"I can see the greedy life he led reflected in his features.."

"I'm sorry but he looks like a villain from a Ghibli film."

"All of his evil deeds came back to bite him in the face."

Meanwhile, others left comments like,

"When did he come back to Korea.."

"If you have time to attend these meetings, then properly apologize for the mess you made."

"He's just gonna book it for the States again as soon as he's done having dinner with those big wigs."

"I guess he finally found an effective weight loss program."

"If you're back in Korea, get your butt to court, not to some dumb meeting."

"Look at him slyly coming back to Korea when things are a little quieter."

Earlier on February 19 KST, the parents of the members of NJZ accused Bang Si Hyuk of "blocking" the girl group's appearance at 'ComplexCon Hong Kong', coming up from March 21-23.
