[Asia Economy Intern Reporter Kim Yeon-ju] f(x) member Amber criticized the panic buying in the United States caused by the COVID-19 outbreak.

On the 16th, Amber posted on her Instagram, "Please wash your hands and be kind to others. No one needs a large amount of toilet paper."

On her Twitter as well, she said, "Let's not step on each other to survive. There are still people risking their health to work, and some have been laid off," adding, "Let's continue to try to be kind to each other. Wash your hands and stay safe."

As COVID-19 has recently spread worldwide, various facilities and gathering places have been closed in countries such as the United States and Australia. As this situation continues, residents have flocked to large supermarkets to hoard essential items like toilet paper and masks.

Meanwhile, Amber debuted in 2009 as a member of the group f(x). After her exclusive contract with SM Entertainment ended last year, she signed an exclusive contract with the American company Steel Wool Entertainment. In January, she released the single "Stay Calm" from "X Part 6."
