One of VIXX's videos were deleted due to swears being discovered on the sketchbook of one of the members in the video. A screencap of Ken's sketchbook shows the writing, "Fucking bastard, why did you hit me you fucking bitch"

-

1. [+515, -13] Of course there are idols who have good character but I do think that there are also a ton of idols who are complete thugs. Gross how this good for nothing kid has a rag in his mouth, tsk tsk tsk.

2. [+430, -15] Wow, is he crazy? He's totally out of it for writing that

3. [+379, -16] ㅋㅋ He's done for

4. [+55, -2] The fact that he thought it was okay to even write that just means he speaks like that on the regular... Honestly though, swearing of that level is nothing between friends but he's an idol who should know to be managing his image and to have better habits...

5. [+40, -5] Those are the worst of the swears too

6. [+39, -1] Imagine how much he swears in real life that he thought it was okay to write something like that on TV... Please don't shield him saying friends swear with each other all the time. Swearing even with your friends is cheap...

7. [+39, -7] This poor nugu... just kicked away his chance at fame and fortune

8. [+26, -3] Is he out of his mind?

9. [+20, -1] I've found that anyone who swears habitually like this is never anyone good

10. [+19, -2] How hopeless... no matter how much of a thug you are, how dumb do you have to be to write a swear like that in front of all those cameras

11. [+16, -1] There's always a reason nugu groups like this never get anywhere ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

12. [+16, -1] Gross. I see so many kids swearing like this on the streets and it looks so cheap. He's just as thoughtless as them.

13. [+16, -4] I remember a 'Weekly Idol' writer dissed them openly on SNS. Looks like VIXX is proving to be trash after all.

14. [+16, -5] How dumb do you have to be to write a swear like that on TV ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

15. [+14, -2] Nugus are the worst when it comes to causing scandals ㅋㅋ

Article: VIXX Ken, "I'm sorry for the swearing controversy... I'll be more careful" [official statement]

1. [+472, -22] If a girl group had done this, it would've been over for her ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ

2. [+337, -24] Sayonara

3. [+326, -28] I know why they aren't popular now

4. [+43, -4] He didn't apologize, his agency did ㅋㅋㅋ

5. [+39, -8] Farewell

6. [+38, -7] What's there to be careful about when everyone already knows what kind of person you are now

7. [+35, -4] The show was recorded for their 5th anniversary, how lightly did he think of it that he thought he could act like this? And I'm more disappointed in the other members for seeing it and not stopping him. Apologizing doesn't change who you are as a person...

8. [+34, -6] As if he's sorry ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ trashy people should not become celebrities. It's gross to see them act all innocent in front of the cameras.

9. [+34, -2] They should change their name from Vixx to Bleeps

10. [+30, -6] Already over for him

11. [+29, -5] If a girl group like Twice or Girlfriend did something like this, they'd be exiled already

12. [+24, -2] It makes no logical sense for you to write a swear down when cameras are rolling ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

I mean it's dumb af to do that during a broadcast but their colorism is a bigger scandal to me than swearing
These netizens are so over the top lol

[scribblyness-x.livejournal.com]

i mean, swearing is in no way an indication of a person's morals but it is really stupid to do that in a broadcast situation.

also, i swear a shit ton but i've never had the urge to write down something like he did lol

[dio-elaclaire.livejournal.com]

not i can so idc but that first knetz comment............. seriously??

[catnipss88.livejournal.com]

shangri-la is one of my favorite song this year,

but i cant stand anyone in this group, except maybe n.

i hate self hating closeted homo leo the most

[chikage-chan.livejournal.com]

"Self hating closeted homo"? Elaborate, please!

[chanyeolized.livejournal.com]

I wonder what made him write that and to whom.

Man these boys are troublesome and for some reason I find Ken really cold.

[showminomoney.livejournal.com]

In the netizen buzz comments someone said Ravi hit Ken, so Ken wrote that and showed him. Hongbin saw it and laughed too. It was obviously meant to be a joke, they all seem really close.

[confuqued.livejournal.com]

I'm immature as hell because I busted out laughing at his swearing.

Every time I read it I crack up. 🤣

[baekpedaling.livejournal.com]

This cracked me up. I don't swear /that/ much when I talk but I would definitely write something like this as a note to one of my friends lmao

[leavesabound.livejournal.com]

It's just swearing.

Can not even imagine what netizens would think of my moral character.

[krissasaur]

I didn't read the comments cause I don't care about netizens, but didn't ken do this before? I think it was Ken. Idk. Somemone in VIXX gave a middle finder in a dance video or something and they had to reupload an edited version.

Edit: I found it.

[jrt131n.livejournal.com]

It is not that serious and I'm only gonna focus on the issue of the article. Starlights are aware of Ken and his potty mouth. Vixx has said this on different occasion. Making a mountain out of a mole heel.

[lovesongwriter.livejournal.com]

Just recently they named him in charge of noise pollution in the dorm because he yells and swears at games. I don't think any starlight would be remotely surprised.

[jinkiestabi.livejournal.com]

I said the same thing earlier, lmao. If something was gonna end Ken, flipping through the Rolodex, I doubt cursing would be it.

[goshipgurl.livejournal.com]

Omg how scandalous

[she-devil666.livejournal.com]

Very. This is gonna ruin them. Oh the humanity!

[jrt131n.livejournal.com]

At the end of the day, Vixx is gonna be ok and k-netizens are gonna crawl right back under the rock they crawled out of and wait for another none issue to be mad about..while ignoring actual thing worth getting mad about.

[365daysafter.livejournal.com]

You said it

[froggster.livejournal.com]

lol this non-issue. It was obvious some good natured ribbing between friends.
also it wasn't even on tv, it was an anniversary video for fans. so who even looked this up to spread it. jeez. antis have mad dedication

[jrt131n.livejournal.com]

I mean out of all the things to be mad about. Like Ken bad mouth is well known😂😂😂

[samfrack.livejournal.com]

Knetz always the most but damn Ken time and place. I swear like this with my friends all the time but when the uptight crowd is around we tone it down.

Though it's no secret he curses a lot. I think it's funny but he does need to stop doing it when cameras are around, they're watched by some of the biggest sticks in the mud. But they also have young fans so he should think more about them instead of his play fighting with Ravi. It's always at Ravi too.

[lovesongwriter.livejournal.com]

I dunno if using "think of the young fans!" is a thing when they had a comeback entirely around being sex slaves with BDSM contracts in the album.

[pourtant.livejournal.com]

i hope this doesn't hurt them, their fans probably don't care, right? with that said why does it seem like being mean to each other is a game to vixx (i'm talking about the hitting that prompted the swearing, not the swearing itself)? i know it's nothing serious and i guess some people are perfectly okay with relationships that are like that but my sensitive ass would just be miserable lol

[lovesongwriter.livejournal.com]

No, it's been known for a long time Ken's mouth could turn the air blue. And VIXX's relationship is very rowdy. A fandom joke is the V in VIXX actually stands for violence cause the cycle is poke until someone pulls someone's hair, then everyone starts pulling hair, then they all cackle.

[she-devil666.livejournal.com]

Y'all cannot be serious with this shit right here. I was wondering why the video was taken down and now I know why but those netizens comments and even here on omona are fucking ridiculous.

So what if he swears? It's a VERY known fact that he does. Maybe he shouldn't have written it on paper but at the end of the day, who really fucking cares? Some people really need to get a life and stop trying to find any little thing to hate on .

[purpleglaceon]

This is the second time he's done something like this. First time was middle finger during vixx tv. The boy really need to be more careful lol

[anonymous-loljk.livejournal.com]

I agree that it's definitely not a good look, to be caught swearing on camera. But it's hardly the worst thing an idol ever done on camera nor that it would earn him the end of his career though.
edit:
Wait but i've only watched the snippet of this so does this mean they won't release the full version then? I was kinda excited for this because their sketches from the previous years were always hilarious...

[evilcoc0nut.livejournal.com]

Lol ok....next

[sra-interesante.livejournal.com]

.... netizenbuzz making vixx articles? what? there's no kpop instagrams to talk about?

[lovesongwriter.livejournal.com]

NB probably couldn't find a good Sulli article.

[jrt131n.livejournal.com]

Man if this got their titties twisted, they would probably lose their minds if they knew about Leo and his biting....

[zuluuluz.livejournal.com]

I can't handle these teenager knetz getting offended over swear words on paper...

Grow the fuck up

[dull-and-wicked.livejournal.com]

leave it up to nb to mess with the facts of something to make it worse than it actually is. this wasn't a broadcast, it was in a video that jelpi posted on vixx's youtube channel for their fans and happened in a split second. makes me wonder who went put of their way to pause and slow down the original vid.

plus, ken has the filthiest mouth ever, years ago when plan v/mtv diary were airing there quite a few things he said that ended up bleeped out of the audio lol

[msgrottesca.livejournal.com]

It's so silly because lterally everyone in fandom knows Jaehwan has no fucking filter lmaooo if anything I think it's one of the things that attracts fans for him.

[jasmineakaiumi.livejournal.com]

the netizens must be really young because having gone to a korean uni i realized that koreans swear a LOT lmao totally normal behaviour for that age so i don't know who the netizens are trying to fool.
