K-pop idol Chuu has found herself at the center of a controversy following a recent YouTube Shorts video where she made a shocking statement about street food. The video, which was shared on an online forum Pann Nate, showed Chuu trying Tanghulu, a popular street food, for the first time. However, it was her response to the food that has sparked outrage among netizens.

In the video, when asked about her experience trying street food, Chuu responded, "I think food sold on the streets is not very healthy. I thought, 'Ah~ kids who eat such things may die early?'." Her remark immediately set off alarm bells among viewers, who found her words to be insensitive and ill-considered.

Chuu's comments ignited heated debates over public health awareness, cultural sensitivity, and the responsibility of celebrities when addressing sensitive topics. Some netizens agreed with her, pointing out that food exposed to the street for a long time can be unhealthy due to dust and fumes. Others, however, were less forgiving, criticizing her for her insensitivity and arguing that her way of speaking was completely different from her on-camera image.

Despite the growing backlash, Chuu's agency has not yet released any statement acknowledging the concerns raised by fans and the public. The controversy highlights the challenges faced by celebrities in the digital age, where their words and actions can be instantly shared and scrutinized by millions.

As the debate continues, it remains to be seen how this incident will impact Chuu's career. For now, fans and critics alike are waiting to see how she and her agency will respond to the controversy.
