The moment the jokes is repetitive, uncomfortable and you already got plenty of times call out for these bad "jokes"
Then no, it's no longer some innocent bad jokes
Kpop idols are enough on social media to know when they are in a controversy
So you're not going to tell me for the past 2 years they've been call out for these insensitive jokes they never knew about it
And never knew that they should stop them

I know nothing about this group whatsoever but I saw the recent clip in question and genuinely I cannot see at all how anyone could interpret that as bullying or "fat shaming". They are literally grown ass men and THEY AREN'T EVEN FAT, so I just don't get it. Maybe more appropriate to say body shaming. I mean, I'm a guy with plenty of guy friends and we say much much much worse stuff to each other in jest.
Idk, it just feels like a case of people being overly sensitive and infantilizing idols, but maybe I'm wrong since I'm basing it off 1 clip.
-
I think it's bcz he's not cool like them but it's still wrong to fat shame him
-
Maybe an inside joke? but once can be excused but a few times seems like a underlining issue
are they trying to force him into an eating disorder 
-
I don't know about the jokes, but It sounds pretty mean to me

To me it still just looks like some joking between guys, but everyone is different and maybe this Sunoo fella is actually uncomfortable. Also these clips are like always accompanied with some added sad music and weird zoom-ins that make it seem worse. Just seems like manufactured drama to me
but that is just 1 persons opinion. -

you don’t have to be like that. They just gaslight you that you are like that, so that you will form some insecurities. Also they bring up his weight in any random situations.
Like this happened a few months ago.
Ni-ki brings up Sunoo’s weight in a random fan call.

I just really don't see the "obvious discomfort" in the clips being linked, but maybe that's just a me problem.
Though it does seem the fandom is divided on this, many comments are saying this is just to stir up drama.

The fandom is divided bc the popular ones are the ones making the jokes..
I think when you repeatedly do this towards just 1 member then I can see why some fans find it weird. They are a big group, but just 1 is constantly the center of "bad" (imo) jokes.

To say he is not "cool like them" is just further perpetuating the "other" ness Sunoo has already been victim of by fans and the members even as far back as when ILand season one was happening.
You are just reinforcing their behaviors by saying stuff like that. If it was a one time joke or something he also joked with it would be different but he has asked them to stop in the middle of filming shows, with the cameras still on, a few times now. When someone asks you to stop, you stop.
Now I know you are young so maybe you do not comprehend how badly trampling on someone's boundaries and requests for human decency is, but trust me it is bad when someone blatantly ignores someone's requests for respect and to not be mocked.

IMO reason for him to put rubber bands on his ears is also because of comments like these by his members. Rubber bands help to swallow your cheeks(or lymphatic muscles)

So Sunoo asked some times for them to stop the jokes?
-
oh that is interesting. I can see how fans have a problem with it, and how it could be potentially uncomfortable for him, especially when done constantly in front a camera. But like I said to taemin, I just really don't see him being "clearly uncomfortable" in the clips but again that might just be a me problem. But don't mind me I'm just a silly gg stan who strayed too far today.

I always don't like when it's just 1 member getting the jokes in any group for any reason bc it feels embarrassing imo, I would dislike being the laughingstock in my group of friends so I guess some fans might think like this too.
-

I remember this clearly. It happened last year in October or November, and engenes again covered up everything. But this time I think it got really big, that they couldn’t brush it under the rug.
-
Also, these remarks towards him are what we are seeing publicly(on tv shows, variety content and etc), imagine what are they gonna say behind the cameras?
-
I am trying to find the clip from one of the lives they did, where they called him an "Elephant" it seems it has been wiped off Twitter and even in the SportKeeda article that talks about it, the clips are no longer available.
When I try to pull it up on google via the link to it, it gives the DMCA takedown request reference. So HYBE issued a DMCA for it, apparently. -

They'll probably poke at his waist, even grabbing it, calling him porker and fatty

This and the fact that the "elephant" clip got DMCA'd, makes me think someone is trying to make sure it stays buried.

I cannot imagine calling ANYONE an Elephant except actual Elephant animals.

I could only call someone an elephant when I wanted to say “you got a memory like an elephant”. 😢

I think there's a compilation on various incidents on Twitter somewhere with the clip...
-
If that is the case, that is a really bad PR plan. Like I know PR reps joke all press is good press but that is not the case.
nah cuz this was literally one of the FIRST THINGS i learned about the group, just like others have said
back when i was going through my bg stan phase, i tried to get into them but the things they say sometimes gave me the ick

I’m trying to search it on TikTok too, but so far I couldn’t find it.
