Recently, the Investigation Police Agency of Ho Chi Minh City has prosecuted and temporarily detained singer Chi Dân and model Andrea to investigate drug-related offenses.
The news and accompanying images have stirred up the online community, leading to vibrant discussions. From here, an image of a “top TikTok idol” posing deliberately as Chi Dân was arrested to create content emerged.
Thinking it was clever, a TikToker with 2 million followers “covered” Chi Dân’s “Left Hand Pointing at the Moon” pose to flaunt it on social media.
This guy even deliberately wore a similar outfit, chose the right angle, and made expressions to closely resemble the original, causing outrage and anger in the online community. Immediately, the post received numerous criticisms. People were upset by the actions of the male TikToker, considering it “thoughtless” and a blatant attempt to chase views.
Moreover, many users pointed out that in 2020, this young man had also been “taken to the precinct” for offenses related to substance use.
“What’s so satisfying about this, B?”;
“I used to be like that too”;
“Does this guy even think?”…
The story does not just end with the criticism or outrage from the online community but also raises questions about TikTok idols. It’s unclear what their process is for selecting information and images to share. What is the purpose of posting such content? With millions of followers on social media yet willing to engage in “dirty trends” thoughtlessly, this “top TikTok idol” has even received the label of “internet trash.”
Currently, the personal page that posted these images has been locked by the owner, and the TikToker’s other platforms have disabled the comment feature to “escape the storm.”
