Choi finally posted two apology to Weibo in the middle of the apology "Apology to cause dismay"
Super Junior member Choi Choi Siwon was hit by a Chinese netizen after he wrote an article about Hong Kong protest. Choi eventually began to evolve the situation by posting two apology to Weibo, China's social network service.
On the 24th, Choi retweeted an interview article for Patrick Cha Du-ri, who was shot and wounded by police during the Hong Kong protest, on his Twitter Inc. Choi's retweeted article included an interview with Cha Du-ri, "You can kill people with bullets but you can not kill faith."
China netizens criticized Choi for his SNS activities, saying that he would support the Hong Kong demonstration. When the criticism intensified, Choi deleted the article he retweeted and explained, "I just expressed my interest in hoping that the confusion and violence of Hong Kong would end soon." “I sincerely apologize for this behavior that has led to your animosity and disappointment,” he added.
Even Choi's apology did not sink the anger of China's netizens. Choi's fan club, which was opened in Baidu's community, China's largest portal, said it would close its Weibo account.
“No one, no matter what, can change our position,” the fan club said in a notice, “and we would never have conceded, and Choi Siwon fan club started with a small love (love for Choi Siwon) and ended with a big love (love for the country).
Choi posted an apology to Weibo again on the 26th. “I apologize for my disappointment at Twitter Inc.,” he said. “I did not deny the idea and position that Hong Kong was part of China. I would like to express my deep apology to everyone again. "
Recently, Chinese netizens have been attacking celebrities who express their support for the Hong Kong protest on SNS, such as making malicious comments. In August, actor Kim Eui-sung expressed his support for the Hong Kong protest, but he was suffering from malicious comments by China netizens.
