Lovely Runner star Byeon Woo Seok left Korea on June 6, 2024, to kick off the overseas legs of his Asia fanmeeting. He looked casual in grey-toned clothes, carrying a puffy black bag to match.
He was all smiles as he greeted the reporters who were waiting.
As soon as he stepped into the airport, he was crowded by throngs of fans. Byeon Woo Seok was flanked by bodyguards, who kept the fans at bay. Luckily, he didn’t appear to be too bothered by the fans.
He was crowded from all sides until he managed to reach the safety of the business class check-in lounge.
Even the reporters noted his sudden surge in popularity. A reporter filming him commented that there used to be only around five fans who would turn up at the airport for him. Now, there’s hundreds and thousands!
