On March 8, SM Entertainment officially announced that former NCT member Lucas is set to make a solo debut.

An official from the label confirmed the news, stating that Lucas would be embarking on his solo journey in April.

The representative mentioned, "It's true that Lucas is preparing for solo activities in April. More specific details will be revealed at a later time."

However, the announcement has sparked disapproval from many Korean netizens in various online communities.

This discontent stems from Lucas' departure from NCT, which was prompted by negative controversies surrounding his personal life.

The reactions underline the ongoing impact of such controversies on public perception in the K-pop industry.

Korean netizens commented:

"Who's going to fangirl over him now?"

"Why are they allowing him to debut as a solo artist?" 

"He's going to continue activities in Korea?"

"SM is just crazy."

"Does he even have the skills to perform solo?"

"That is just amazing."

"In Korea??"

"I guess if you want to go solo, you just cause trouble, leave the group, and stay low for a while."

"Okay...^^"

"I wonder if there are even fans who still support him."

"SM should just invest more time and support for NCT instead of wasting it on him."

"This is why everyone is leaving SM."

"Why is SM taking care of him so much?"

"He can just promote in China, why does he want to stay in Korea?"
