Unknown to fans, while they were having such a beautiful celebrations, some akgaes were envious of how widespread and joyous his birthday celebration was that they spent time fundraising to send trucks on his birthday asking for him to leave.

If you still don’t know the severity of what’s going on. This is what those horrendous akgaes put on those trucks... ALL FAKE RUMORS AND LIES.

In addition to that, they also took to Weibo wishing him a "Happy Death Day" on his birthday while changing their avatars to various disgusting images of Hyunjin 

A week ago, they also sent trucks to the front of JYP Entertainment building claiming to be fans who wanted Hyunjin out, over a fabricated controversy.

Akgaes on Korean forum are planning to send a truck to the JYP Entertainment shareholders building and the venue of the fan-meeting between now and HHJ’s birthday (March 20th) demanding his withdrawal from the group. *contents of the truck are blurred*

Unfortunately, C-Akgaes are planning to send a hateful truck to JYP Entertainment today, asking for Hyunjin’s withdrawal.

These trucks are NOT coming from Stray Kids Fans, KSTAYS, CSTAYS, ISTAYS, etc. They are coming from a group of people that have spent the last three years… pic.twitter.com/fMGAbxS2Zv

Thankfully, Hyunjin's Chinese bar was able to respond swiftly and counter their hate with multiple trucks filled with love for Hyunjin while calling for JYPe entertainment to take action both them and now.
