Felix has shown why he is admired by many as a role model by apologizing and taking responsibility for his mistake of displaying a Coca-Cola bottle during the Stray Kids live stream.
Coca-Cola is among the brands facing boycott following the Israel-Palestine conflict.
Fans believe Felix showed courage by recognizing and apologizing for holding a Coca-Cola bottle, even with JYP Entertainment’s current partnership with the brand.
In a recent live, he acknowledged his mistake by saying, “I do apologize for just showing that (Coca-Cola bottle) on live, I didn’t mean to hurt anyone’s feelings, so, yeah, I really wanna say I am very sorry for showing that out.”
He added, “I did not want to make STAYs upset, I just want to say I am really sorry for bringing that up.” Besides that, Felix promised STAYs to not show or hold the Coca-Cola bottle for the next Mukbang live or any content for that matter.
After he apologized, Fans trended ‘Thank You Felix’ on X and praised him for accepting his mistake, apologizing, and promising to not do again.
