Controversial or edgy?

ALLDAY PROJECT’s Tarzzan can’t seemingly catch a break from controversies, as his recent picture has sparked major backlash from Korean netizens.

A few weeks ago, the idol was criticized for dropping the F-word equivalent in Korean while responding to a fan.

More recently, he also came under fire for posing inappropriately with actor Park Seo Joon at an event.

Both these controversies stemmed from the unwritten rule of the K-Pop industry that prohibits idols from explicit cursing or similar gestures. However, Tarzzan appears to be untouched by these backlashes, given his new photo has stirred up a similar discourse.

The photos in question feature Tarzzan along with his groupmate, Bailey Sok, seemingly taken while the two attended an event.

In one of the photos, Tarzzan is seen throwing up his middle finger, the very gesture that landed him in hot water before while posing with Park Seo Joon.

Netizens have loudly criticized the idol for repeating this gesture, and even remarked that his attempts appear “cool” this way were not working in his favor.
