"All this shows that the Chinese are arrogant and have no respect or consideration for other cultures," wrote one commenter on K-pop news site allkpop.However, Chinese fans praised her stance and defended the singer online, with the hashtag "Wang Yiren, Chinese people don't kneel" trending after a photo of the event was posted on Everglow's Weibo account."I'm proud of this idol who keeps Chinese traditions," said another user.
Neither Wang nor Everglow's South Korean management company Yue Hua Entertainment has commented on the incident. "Everglow will continue their domestic activities with five members, and carry out their schedule as planned."
