ATEEZ Fans Upset Over San’s Apparent Mistreatment At “DG Alta Moda” Fashion Event
Earlier this week, ATEEZ‘s San had heads turning with his stunning appearance at the GD Alta Moda fashion event in Italy.

He donned two completely different outfits for the event — one that made him look like a statuesque piece of art, and the other a more casual and flowy ensemble. He looked gorgeous in both.

While San himself earned nothing but praise and admiration for his appearance at the event and caught the eyes of many influential celebrities, however, fans became upset when they noticed something off about his treatment there.
During the fashion runway portion of the show, fans were at first excited to see that San had front-row seats for the event. But it was later revealed that while he was in the front row, he wasn’t given a cushion to sit on like the rest of the guests, and he had to sit on the edge of the seating structure and sort of squeeze himself in.
Despite the situation, San appears nothing but polite and gracious for the opportunity. He seems to be trying to make himself as small and unobtrusive as possible, though that’s understandably difficult given his broad shoulders and bold outfit!
애 자리 좀 내줘요….😠
