go hard or go home , Teen Top to delete all SNS account because of Niel's dating rumour

[wafflesnmilk.livejournal.com]

Recently, there have been rumors floating around community sites that Teen Top’s Niel is in a relationship, sparked by photos that show him wearing a similar accessory as someone else.

A representative of Niel’s agency TOP Media denied the reports, stating,
“The rumors suspecting that Niel is in a relationship with a girl is not true. The accessory that Niel had on was worn by the other members, too.”

Later on, TOP Media stated, “We don’t know if they are the same bracelet and anklet. The dating rumors are not true and we do not plan to post an official statement.”

Despite this denial, netizens have found some “evidence” that suggest otherwise.
It has been relayed that Niel pressed “like” on a non-celebrity girl’s Instagram picture, the same girl that had the same accessory as him and cancelled it later. He has been seen wearing the anklet/bracelet a few times in photo shoots and fan-taken photos, too.

Furthermore, there are a number of pictures that show the girl wearing the accessory quite frequently, as shown by some of her Instagram photos, which cannot be viewed now since she has made her account private.

T.O.P Media denied the rumours but

[TRANS Fan Cafe From Teen Top 150701 Hello, this is C.A.P]
Hello, Angels. This is leader C.A.P.

Up until now, it seems that things related to SNS have caused fans a lot of worries, for which I apologize.

From here on, the instagram and twitters used personally by Teen Top members will be deleted and we will be delivering news via the official Teen Top account.

In the future, we will use SNS again as a means of communications with fans and we will strive harder to ensure that things which would cause the fans similar concerns will not occur again.

Since our comeback, you have truly been at our sides from morning to morning cheering for us and watching over our stage performances, for which we are truly thankful.

We will do our best to become an even more hard-working Teen Top who presents an even better side of themselves to you.

Oh for the love of all that is pure and holy
What kind of deadbeat has time to analyze a celebrity's likes and dislikes and do forensic analysis on fucking anklets.
What kind of pansies are this company being by deleting everything.Totally not suspicious.

[win03die.livejournal.com]

the "receipts" indeed deserve the lolz-tag.

the anti who made this rumour up in the first place.. congrats. hope you're happy. the timing too.. right after tintap winst #1.

the comments of hate niel was flooded with in his insta were ridic and since this is not the first sns incident (changjo's dating rumor that was "based" like this one too changjo's twitter getting hacked and the attempts to hack niel's twitter. )... they're going all the way. ugh.

this sucks for the boys and the fans so much but at least no one'll be able to attack the members personally.

[sra-interesante.livejournal.com]

all the members closing their accounts sounds extreme at the begining
but in a world where fans can make up (and end up believing their own stories) dating scandals based on purely pictures and sns intereractions .... well, teen top is just reacting to fangirl actions in the past
good for them! i hope hey enjoy their new found privacy

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

No one likes you Cap but I don't like people attacking our kid Niel

[simprov.livejournal.com]

hdu i luv cap

[milkmp3.livejournal.com]

even after what he said if he had kids? yikes...

[simprov.livejournal.com]

lmfao yes ofc im down for cap locking our daughter in a closet!!!
im fully aware of what cap has said and im not excusing it so u can take ur yikes away from here

[milkmp3.livejournal.com]

lmao you really need to chill and stop acting like i full-on attacked you. all i said was, "even after what he said if he had kids? yikes..." if that shit stain can say that in an interview, just imagine how how REALLY feels about it/women in general but you keep doing you and stanning this flop

[belintuchiha.livejournal.com]

for all ya know your bias can be a rapist, etc etc
you never really know lol
this comes from a ex stan of Kim Hyun Joong

[milkmp3.livejournal.com]

exactly. instances like this aren't just "isolated incidences" and should not be brushed off as "another problematic fave lol!" (he's not and never was in the first place, but you get what i'm saying lol) but like i said, just imagining how he really views women is really scary... like khj, yes, he's a perfect example. but i won't get into that because it gets me so riled up!

[doren-e.livejournal.com]

oh my, he really wasn't kidding?? 0-0

[milkmp3.livejournal.com]

nope but he THOUGHT he was and issued some shit apology of, "sorry you didn't find this joke funny" kind of bullshit every misogynist uses

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

He's been permanently on my shit list since the incident

[milkmp3.livejournal.com]

mine, too! 👏👏👏

[pbutterlion.livejournal.com]

speak 4 urself

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

He's been permanently on my shit list since the incident

[pbutterlion.livejournal.com]

ur shit list must be enormous then ? damn u must be writing down names every couple days lmfao aw

[hipployta.livejournal.com]

*sigh* You know very well that that is not a literal list. People for the most part can reconcile the things they dislike about a person but sometimes certain people just rub you the wrong way and eventually you write them off.

In real life you may come to change your mind but celebrity is not something to invest that kind of energy in to me. When they reveal how they are fucked up or stupid I tend to just lose interest so I consume the offical entertainment they provide and avoid the rest (reality tv. social media, interviews, and so on)

[milkmp3.livejournal.com]

even after what he said if he had kids? yikes...

[mlmello.livejournal.com]

after seeing the first picture of the girl, I thought it was moon chae won and was like WHAAAAT?

[tsuyoi-hikari.livejournal.com]

Yeah, she does look like Moon Chae Woon a looot -- but I know it couldnt be her lol

[pbutterlion.livejournal.com]

like????? kinda upset bc they were a group that actually updated their sns w selcas and entertaining updates ???? idec if they are dating or not im not 8

[facedancers.livejournal.com]

I actually think everyone deleting was probably a good idea I mean it looks suspicious but at least this way the crazies willing to waste their time and dig deeper/analyze every hash tag and picture can't. But it does suck for the the fans that don't give a shit about who they're seeing or not seeing.

[audiograms.livejournal.com]

i don't think they would have in fans didn't get vicious on comments. I'm not a fan but I hopethey can go back to hving sns accounts soon, their updates were always really cute

[swhyeon1991.livejournal.com]

Lol. She's so pretty tho omg.

[atopworld.livejournal.com]

Lol. Wow.

[huanyia.livejournal.com]

it's ridiculous that the members have to go as far as closing their own sns accounts, but at least they're safer from rabid fangirls that way...

[sexychanyonce.livejournal.com]

Of course Top Media gives a damn explanation to Angels but 100% had to delete their SNS accounts even though they have nothing to do with this shit and we were given NO REASONING whatsoever. I'm so pissed off.

[kurdoodle.livejournal.com]

wait what is 100% doing these days? just curious. they kinda fell off the radar :(

[sexychanyonce.livejournal.com]

They are doing nothing, they have sound some new hobbies and such but they have no schedule... it doesn't seem like Top Media has any plans to give them any either or a comeback for that matter, even though it's been a year since their last.

Chanyong acted for Police 2015 (a show were they discuss real life crimes and have a short segment were they act out a crime, nothing big) twice now. I hope he gets to continue doing that. Their instagram accounts were basically the only thing keeping the perfection fandom sane. Now they taken that from us too.

[kurdoodle.livejournal.com]

oh no :( that's so unfortunate. when 100% debuted, they stood out to me so much and i was so excited for them. they truly are talented. sighs at top media

[sexychanyonce.livejournal.com]

Top Media is doing everything wrong especially towards 100% and Perfections. At this point I think we all are just thankful 100% haven't disbanded.

I hope that you keep a little intrest in them when they do have a comeback. It would mean a lot! n_n

[kurdoodle.livejournal.com]

thank YOU for still loving 100% and yes, at least they aren't disbanded ;_; don't worry, when they have a comeback, i will be supporting them :)

[magicpineapple.livejournal.com]

So... Dude liked O N E picture, & she has a similar ankle bracelet to the dude who liked that one pic.

TOES DATING!!11

[lysblack.livejournal.com]

I'm side eyeing the fuck out of them for doing this because they are admiting of being wrong and guilty of whichever 'crime' the so called fans are accusing them and giving more power to the crazies.

[doren-e.livejournal.com]

now and then, i just wished people were like heechul and just protected the other member instead of having to do all of this \sighs

[jackieee94.livejournal.com]

T^T this is why we can't have nice things. Goodbye to Ricky's selcas.

[xblackchristmas.livejournal.com]

They prob felt like they had to prevent netizens from digging up old photos. Even if there is no relationship going on, netizens can always make assumptions and put out a rumor like "they posted a picture of so-and-so on the same week! must be dating"

or some stupid sh*t like that.

[kaypukis.livejournal.com]

hmm idk if deleting their sns account is the best way for this.. but again, teen top is still young and god knows what will they upload when they really in a relationship with someone.. just to minimize the uproar like baekyeon case, maybe that's why they decided to just shut all their sns account lol

[dot-rose.livejournal.com]

This overreaction to a simple dating rumour is causing the opposite desired effect.
If they acted as though it was nothing, (some) people like the fans would have treated it as it was nothing but a fruitless rumour.

[carmine-pink.livejournal.com]

Sigh. How will L.Joe ever cope with this, he should just take over the official Teen Top account to post selcas and stuff.

Edit: I'm glad that it seems the members are starting to post stuff through the official account. Although this probably means whatever they post have to be screened first for "suspicious content" or sth, which is ridic.

[tsuyoi-hikari.livejournal.com]

OP, when you wrote: 'chunji's occasional narsissistic selca', what did he do in his selca pics actually?

[wafflesnmilk.livejournal.com]

i can't pull up any examples right now (since their insta is gone welp) but i'm sure he has on more than one occasion had caption praising his own looks in his selcas and his pictures just really gives off the vibe of "look at me and how good-looking i am" i can't describe i'm sorry welp .

[callherblondie.livejournal.com]

Wake me up when l.joe's dating, then I'll be excited.

[age-b.livejournal.com]

So basically Changjo is allowed to date/meet up with a girlgroup member (!) on a regular basis, but when someone makes up a silly rumor about Niel, they gotta close down their accounts? That's just... Ah well.. Their loss, I guess... Teen Top are number one when it comes to SNS... And I am not even a fan.

[yumi99.livejournal.com]

um, I think it was the flood of incidents and this broke the camel's back with it's pure stupidity.
changjo's rumous, changjo's twitter hacked, repeated attempts at hacking niel's twitter... and now this idiocy that a bitter anti fabricated because they won The Show.
Sad for the boys bec they loved interacting with fans but now that a few days have passed I get it; they're really young and I can see that this is a way protecting them from crazies and antis.

the hate comments (the nonfans) left at niel's insta and twitter were outrageous. All fans were just telling him they love him.

[doren-e.livejournal.com]

damn D: and i really liked him too, oh well
