😪 i really thought they learned from last time or were at least media trained, idk why he still brings this back now. he should've matured after that whole thing especially knowing how sensitive sunoo is to his health/weight/appearance and ik he was trying to get a rise out of him but there are more lighthearted unhurtful ways to do that. honestly it's not even asking for much...

ultimately it's how sunoo wants to go about this, if the next time ni-ki makes another comment off camera that sunoo will chastise him and directly tell him no. sunoo's not a pushover with riki so i'm sure he'd say so because at this rate it's the only way he'd stop. as an idol his words in public have weight especially towards other more sensitive fans, and enha know that 'dieting' and being overly concerned with one's weight isn't a message they should be encouraging so it's so frustrating that he'd somehow not getting it?? obviously he needs to be educated on this or at least reminded bc it's tiring and the joke is so old. i know why he did it but i don't know why he hasn't realised by now he shouldn't be making these jokes :-/ at this point i'm not even expecting a public apology but at the very least a change in how he approaches these topics especially with sunoo. even if he's joking, there's still weight in his words.

he's still part of the group and he's still sunoo's dongsaeng, so i can't claim to have a say in him being in sunoo's life, but i think he needs to learn to be more mindful of these things. i don't want to un-stan him over this either, but maybe some distance is needed at the very least.
