After a video was posted through RIIZE‘s official account on January 1st showing Anton and his father, renowned musician Yoon Sang, performing the dance challenge ‘Get A Guitar’, some netizens accused him of being a Nepo Baby, and the idol immediately responded.

The video posted had ‘Real Baby’ written in its description, and this seems to have been a trigger as some users commented, ‘NEPO BABYYYYY’ referring to Nepotism, claiming that Anton’s success is due to his father’s great trajectory, not thanks to his own talent.

However, the RIIZE member defended himself, answering the comment in a quick and simple way without getting angry or explaining much; he just wrote, “Born this way by Lady Gaga“, which is a song with very deep lyrics that says, “We are all born superstars; there is nothing wrong with loving who you are, on the contrary“.

Later, netizens understood Anton’s point and started to defend him, saying that whether or not he was Yoon Sang’s son, he would have made his debut with the group since he auditioned, which means that it was thanks to his talent and great skills that he got the success he enjoys today.
