Controversy is arising over the performance presented by group WJSN member DAYOUNG on the stage at the Hanyang University festival on the 2nd. At the time, DAYOUNG called a male student up onto the stage and engaged in close fan service, such as sitting on his lap.

In this process, the male student wrapped his arms around DAYOUNG's waist and abdomen area, and physical contact occurred as DAYOUNG was wearing an outfit that revealed her abdomen at the time. Netizens who viewed the video poured out criticisms, saying it "looked like a hostess bar" or that "the hand placement is inappropriate."

It is also reported that spectators present at the scene expressed discomfort, such as making X-signs to restrain the situation as the male student's contact continued. On the other hand, some opinions are emerging that it was part of the fan service planned directly by the singer.
