K-pop and korean drama: B2uties trend B2STWETRUSTYOU on Twitter in support of Yoseob

Update: A clip of the incident on Immortal Song 2 has been added at the end of the article. At the beginning of the clip, Yoseob is seen complaining about the difficult lyrics that have to be memorized. At about 0:25, a suggestion was made to change the lyrics, and Yoseob was asked whether it can be changed to his girlfriend's name. Yoseob then answered, "No, of course not. Even if I wanted to change it, I can't." When it was suggested that his girlfriend would be disappointed, Yoseob responded, "Yeah, my girlfriend would be disappointed...what exactly are you getting at?!" In relation to this incident, Yoseob later thanked the fans' support via Twitter, saying, "thank you for everyone who cares for me, loves me, worries about me, and thinks about me. I apologize for not having too much of a smile on my face today and made you guys worried. I'm feeling a lot better now^^ Good night everyone^^"

On June 11th, fans of BEAST began trending "B2STWETRUSTYOU," which made its way to the top 10 trends worldwide. The reasoning behind the trend is based on rumours that BEAST’s Yoseob is currently dating, which has been spreading over the internet like a wildfire. Yoseob responded to the rumours via his Twitter, stating, "Everyone seems to be curious, so I will talk about it. In Immortal Song, I said I have a girlfriend, but it was a joke. And don’t believe any rumours about other celebrities. Like I said before, can’t you just believe us? Why believe those rumours and hurt me like that? Why do you have to believe those things and make me disappointed?"

He goes on to say, "Although a lot of people think that there is no need to pay attention to this kind of misunderstanding, I believe that any misunderstanding between BEAST and B2uties should be cleared up, and that is why I am writing this. First of all, all the rumours about me having a girlfriend are absolutely not true. I don’t know where the rumours began, so I don’t know how I should clear things up. I’m really truly sad and disappointed because I’m spending time explaining something that does not exist."

Finally, Yoseob ended his explanation by tweeting, "I’ll stop writing now, because I really don’t know what else to say. I keep writing and deleting, writing and deleting..."

Dongwoon also seemed to be affected by rumours circulating and tweeted, "Due to my lack of care for others I have hurt many people. Even though short messages can’t usually resolve any misunderstandings, please understand that I never lied to any of our fans."
