ENHYPEN's Jay's scene in DARK MOON webtoon

DARK MOON is a fictional webtoon that is centered around ENHYPEN's music video universe produced by ENHYPEN's agency BELIFT LAB. The characters are also inspired by the members of ENHYPEN. Jay's character Jaan was described in one of the scenes of the webtoon where he was said to be powerful when dealing with enemies, however, was a softie on the inside. The writers portrayed him as 'weird' and it was shown that Jaan cries at home while watching K-dramas. His actions while crying were inspired by an incident that happened with Jay before. Fans expressed their anger as Jay is uncomfortable with speaking about the incident. The scene in the webtoon appeared to be for fun. However, it was not appreciated by viewers and fans as their idol feels uneasy when it is mentioned. Netizens criticized BELIFT LAB for not protecting their own artist Jay and asked for better treatment.
