Netizens are left baffled.
K-Pop singer T.O.P is seemingly facing a fallout after publicly acknowledging his relationship with idol-actress Nana.
On October 2, KST, the couple confirmed that they were dating, and just two days later, a fan-organized exhibition for T.O.P was canceled after reservations fell through. The fan page that was organizing the event put out a statement revealing that, despite basing their estimates on attendance figures from previous years and still going for a smaller scale, they were not able to secure enough reservations.
The exhibition, which was scheduled for October 31 and November 1, was originally planned for 300 attendees. However, the actual number of applications remained below 25%, and many existing registrants canceled their reservations. The expected number of attendees dropped to 10-15%, forcing the organizers to cancel the event altogether.
Given the timing of this entire situation, netizens are convinced that the primary reason is T.O.P’s dating news. This speculation has drawn baffled responses from netizens all across the globe, wondering how an idol almost in his 40s could still face backlash for simply being in a relationship.

- “Does the fan’s love really fade because someone in his 40s is dating?”
- “Is dating a bigger turn-off than drugs? LOL.”
- “The fans are mostly women, right? Do they think that if he doesn’t date Nana, he’ll date one of them instead? Did they get all worked up and cancel because he’s in a relationship?”
