The lead singer of the longstanding Korean boy band Super Junior, Leeteuk, has faced a torrent on online backlash in the past week following his shouted declaration of love for President Donald Trump during a concert in California.
Leeteuk, whose real name is Park Jeong-su, and Super Junior performed in the greater Los Angeles area as part of a larger tour of stars by the South Korean record label SM Entertainment, one of the country’s most successful. As the Korea JoongAng Daily explained on May 14, the Super Junior performance included a variety of comedy segments and some off-hand jokes. It is not clear at press time if Leeteuk’s “I love Trump!” shout was intended as comedy or not, as neither SM nor the artist himself have directly addressed the situation at press time.
Videos began circulating last week of the band departing the stage in Los Angeles, following the publication of mainstream media reports about the concert that did not address the statements. Billboard wrote that “the jokes never stopped” during Super Junior’s performance but did not specify what those jokes were, except for Leeteuk’s repeated references to one member of the audience as “mom.”
Leeteuk does not appear to be on camera in the video footage but a man identified in multiple reports as him can be clearly heard on a microphone shouting “I love USA!” and his love for various American things. Among the statements were “I love In-N-Out” and “I love Five Guys,” both American fast food burger chains, in addition to “I love Trump.” The man identified as Leeteuk also at one point appeared to shout, “I love Elon Musk,” the green energy personality.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Embarassing Democrats is a capital offense to the left. The boy band will have to be 86’d.
Beautiful. It’s just the upbeat and positives he just has to exude. Let’s hope more of these folks come out. The late democrat Gene Hackman liked Trump. I never heard it until he died and it certainly wasn’t mentioned on the MSM.
has faced a torrent on online backlash
I suspect he has a lot of support in this,
but the headline says.........................
Knew there was a reason I loved Korean boy bands.
You’ll never face as much public and online Hate and vitriol in this world as you will when professing support for our current Commander in Chief.
To counter bruthee spwingsteam?
I thought he was dead.
Do Korean men all look like trans?
Do they feed them estrogen?
