Although he hasn't debuted yet, SMRookies Taeyong, who flatters with his visual, has already caught in a controversy.

Few days ago, Taeyong is accused of scamming online during his pre-debut days and used of obscene language in 2009. Several posts emerged on a Korea website detailing how Taeyong did false advertising and even provided an exchange of text messages wherein the SM trainee used obscene words.

In regard to this, on December 10, SM Entertainment stated, "For what he has done during his middle school, he expressed that he's reflecting and deeply regretful. We apologize to the people who've done wrong. Not only Taeyong, but the company as well, will make him grow to a talented artist with a good character."
