NCT‘s Renjun gained attention after personally exposing a sasaeng who had been calling him.
A sasaeng is an obsessive fan who acts in ways that invade the privacy of Korean idols, drama actors, or other celebrities.
Renjun has been known to expose sasaengs, and earlier in the month, the idol shared a message of an account promoting the selling of the members’ personal information with the caption, “And since you tried to reveal our numbers first illegally, I’m going to reveal you, too.”
Sadly, it seems like Renjun continues to be the victim of sasaengs, but he’s taking matters into his own hands again.
On June 20, Renjun shared a message on Bubble with a phone number. In the caption, he wrote, “Stop calling me. I am revealing this person’s phone number,” revealing that a fan had gotten a hold of his personal number and had been phoning him.

When the image circulated online, netizens praised Renjun for his actions but also hit back at SM Entertainment for not doing their job by protecting their idols’ privacy.
it's ridiculous how renjun, who's on a hiatus for health reasons, has to reveal the sasaeng numbers on his own platform and defend himself because sm could not and has never taken action to protect his privacy and wellbeing 🙃

Hello SM,
Please be more protective of your artist. Quickly give the sasaeng or the disturber the proper punishment, the safety and comfort of the artist is the number one priority.@SMTOWNGLOBAL #SM_PROTECT_RENJUN#PROTECT_RENJUN
