Known for his love of McDonald’s burgers, Doyoung’s endorsement took an unexpected turn when international fans began to scrutinize its implications. The global movement to show solidarity with Palestine has led to widespread boycotts of major brands, including McDonald’s, which are accused of supporting Israel.

This controversy resulted in a significant drop in Doyoung’s Instagram followers and exposed him to heavy criticism. Fans are taking a strong stand against the boycotted brands. Thus, some are claiming to unstan Doyoung due to disappointment. Many netizens are asking the idol to apologize and stop working with McDonald’s.
