I FR need men to start being insecure about their looks… It’s the scariest how no one said anything to him while he became such a pig.

Others, however, defended Nichkhun and pointed out that the idol is now in his late 30s, saying it’s completely natural for appearances to change over time. Many fans also praised him for aging naturally instead of chasing unrealistic standards
