What caught the interest of netizens was when Alexander spoke about his difficulties and the reason he had left the group.
When Alexander joined U-KISS, it was a time when the Korean entertainment industry didn't have much experience with members who were foreigners. So, netizens were able to see and hear about the difficulties that Alexander went through.
However, netizens were shocked and sad to hear that Alexander was forced to leave the group. He was kicked out as he was told that he was not popular. Because Alexander was a foreigner, he had no choice but to leave.
The other difficulties that Alexander had were his visa issues and cultural differences. He stated that there were many times he had to just do things without understanding why he had to. Alexander was born in Hong Kong and grew up in Macau. His mother is Korean and his father is half Chinese and half Portuguese.
Many netizens felt bad and sorry that Alexander had to experience such difficulties at a young age.
