In the K-pop industry, stories and theories about certain celebrities are popular among fans and even antis. While several of the allegations are foolish and not that outrageous, others may damage the image and career of the artist or group.
Therefore, the stories must be taken seriously and adequately investigated before spreading to avoid harming innocent artists.
Here are some stories that were confirmed to be untrue:

Although there were other factors to being a celebrity that he was outspoken about not being happy with, like fan service, D.O. truly loves dancing and singing.
There is also a lot of proof that he gets along very well with his co-members and actually likes having them around.
Just because he is not as expressive and friendly as most of the other members, doesn't mean that he hates them or his job.
