K-pop boy group VICTON is now under immense backlash after performing and posting up a dance rehearsal clip with a song meant to bring justice for the killed black American cop named Breonna Taylor. Fans are shocked, while netizens are debating.

The now-deleted dance rehearsal clip of VICTON gained massive hate from netizens. According to ALICE (VICTON's fandom), not only the K-pop boy band but also its managing agency lacks awareness of cultural and human rights issues happening to other countries.

The rehearsal video in which the members of VICTON are grooving to with 'I Need You To' is not made intentionally to negatively impact people concerned with the tragic event.

To help VICTON and its managing label, Play M Entertainment, to better understand the situation and their mistake, international fandom ALICE wrote them a letter explaining that the song used in the rehearsal clip is meant to bring justice to the gun-killed Black-American cop named Breonna Taylor.

Despite the hate and the mistake made by VICTON, their fans still stood by their side to defend them against hurtful comments. After the video was officially turned down, VICTON members held an official live stream individually to express their apology to fans who they unintentionally hurt with the song used in their practice video.

Seungsik went first to apologize through his Instagram story and took full responsibility for their mistake, admitting they did not understand the song's message. This was followed by Subin and Sejung admitting their wrongdoing and are now reflecting on their mistake.

The members apologized sincerely and promised to work hard and be cautious more to be a much better artist; others can look up to and rely upon. Fans warmly received the public apology as the members are quick to realize and apologize for their mistakes.

ALICEs believed that being fully informed about different issues around you can help you avoid such mistakes.
