Taeyong (NCT): Male K-pop god stigmatized by SM, sticky with sarcastic hooks on female idols

Taeyong's real name is Lee Tae Yong, his Chinese-Vietnamese name is Lee Thai Long was born on 01/07/1995 in Seoul, South Korea. The guy is known as a South Korean male singer, songwriter, and Rapper.

He is currently a member of NCT and small units including NCT U, NCT 127 formed and managed by SM Entertainment. He has also held the positions of Center, Leader, Main Rapper, Main Dancer and Sub Vocal.

Taeyong (NCT) is known as the youngest child in the family and also has an older sister born in 1988. He graduated from Seoul School of Arts and Performing Arts in February 2013. He participated in composing 30 different songs in 04 languages and released by different subgroups of NCT. He also released his first solo single called "Long Flight" in 2019.

SM Entertainment's NCT boy band system does not have a leader, as although it is a system, each subgroup has relatively separate activities. However, since NCT's debut, the public has always assumed that Taeyong is the leader of the whole system because the male idol always takes care of, leads and supports all NCT members whether in joint or private activities.

But the current Taeyong is not an "unreal name", as the male idol and SM have also confirmed that Taeyong is the leader of the NCT system in the group's joint project. Having always scored points with his hard work and leadership qualities, Taeyong has increasingly made the public sympathetic with his performance when welcoming new members of NCT.

Since Taeyong is beloved for his incredible leadership, fans expressed their disappointment with NCT's show in 2022, Welcome to NCT Universe, for a line describing a Twitter post with words that "stigmatized" Taeyong. The program focuses on the interaction between NCT and SMROOKIES trainees. Taeyong showed up and gave advice, guided dance moves, and cheered on the boys who were about to join the NCT system.

While fans enjoyed Taeyong's interactions with the trainees, appreciating Taeyong's dedication to spending time helping the SMROOKIES, SM described Taeyong as "an old-fashioned and imposing bastard."

Fans sent a lot of emails asking the account to correct the content of this disrespectful post. They believe that, even if the company wants to write a fun, joking post, there are many better and more appropriate words that can be used.

In 2023, Taeyong is also involved in a row that is suspected of mocking a female idol. Remember LE SSERAFIM leader Chaewon made social media waves at the concert in Seoul to open the group's first tour. But instead of finishing the lyrics, the idol had to quit halfway, laughing and pretending nothing had happened. After that, Jungkook (BTS) left a comment expressing his delight at the cute mistake of juniors, the popular K-pop idol series and even netizens also imitated this moment of Chaewon and formed a trend.

Following the trend, the god Taeyong (NCT) used Chaewon's viral voice audio and recorded 1 video with 2 members Johnny - Haechan to upload to TikTok. Initially, netizens were extremely interested in the funny clip of the male god of SM, but things changed completely recently. Many Korean netizens accused Taeyong of sarcasm, deliberately parodying Chaewon's mistake as a joke. There are also fans who think that male idols have crossed the line and this trend should have stopped a long time ago. In addition, other netizens accused this part of the audience of targeting Taeyong on purpose, because before that, many idols and even Kpop fans also "swinged" the trend.

Taeyong also caused a stir when he said he was afraid of hemiplegia. On February 2, 2023, actor Kim Jong Kook posted a fitness video with the boy band NCT 127. Through the video, Taeyong said he works out because he fears paralysis of the lower half of his body.

"In the beginning, only Jaehyun and Jungwoo participated. However, I volunteered to go along because my hips were very weak. It was so bad that it could make me paralyzed in the lower half of my body," Taeyong said. Before that, he was diagnosed with a herniated disc. After hearing Taeyong's sharing, Kim Jong Kook revealed that he also suffers from this disease. "As a child, I was part of a dance group and had injuries. I completely empathize with what you're going through," the actor expressed.

In terms of romance, Taeyong was once questioned about dating actor Park Joo Hyun. Accordingly, fans have shed light on the hint series. His nickname in the game is "Sorangi" and coincides with Park Ju Hyun's character name in "The Forbidden Marriage".

In addition, this actress also visited the concert of NCT 127 subgroup in the position for family members. Through this information, many fans believe that he is dating actress Park Joo Hyun who is one year older. However, soon after, both SM Entertainment and 935 Entertainment denied this rumor. Both agencies said Taeyong and Park Joo Hyun were just friends.
