ATEEZ’s San became the center of concerns after a moment from his November 18, 2025, appearance on Dolsing 4Men began circulating on social media. The clip shows the host discussing exercise when he suddenly reached out and touched the artist’s chest, continuing to pat and press around the area without asking for consent. The ATEEZ member looked visibly uncomfortable, leaving fans upset and calling out the host’s inappropriate behavior.

Once the clip hit X (formerly known as Twitter), fans immediately voiced their anger, criticizing the host for crossing a clear boundary. Many argued that San’s reaction made it obvious he didn’t expect or want the physical contact, with some users even describing the moment as “groping” and comparing it to sexual harassment. Other posts also highlighted how uncomfortable it must have been for San to react openly, since the host is his “senior” in the industry, making it harder for him to address the situation in real time. Check out some fan reactions here:
The incident has reignited conversations about casual physical contact on Korean variety shows and why certain behaviors are still treated as harmless “gags.” Fans stressed that idol guests deserve respect and should never be put in situations where their comfort and physical safety are undermined. As the video continues to reach more viewers, fans are demanding that broadcasters and companies rethink these interactions.
