240623 김포공항 입국 당시 저는 시큐에게 머리를 구 타당하였고, 당황한 저는 무시로 대응하였습니다. 첫번째 머리 구타 이후에도 시큐는 저에게 짜증 섞인 말투로 "붙지말라고" 라는 말과 함께 수차례 폭력을 가했습니 pic.twitter.com/KN1yR7OJ0v— 미니 (@symini0917) June 23, 2024
The fan tried to avoid the confrontation as they were afraid of facing a grown man as a minor. Later, they criticized the security guard for their behavior, citing that it was their job to protect the idols, not to threaten the fans.
In response to the situation, many netizens have expressed their sympathy for the victim.
- The fan was far away. Why is he like that?
- It’s not like they approached the members closely. They were just filming from afar. What’s up with him?
- Isn’t it possible for them to sue on the grounds of assault at this rate? He seems mentally ill.
- They weren’t even close to the members, why did he push them? Crazy.
- They’re not even blocking the path, neither were they stuck close to the boys. He just pushed the fan away like that. Isn’t that one-sided assault?
On the other hand, a few have expressed their sympathy, but maintained that fans should avoid the airport.
애초에 안 보러 가면 되는 거 아님?
인파가 많이 몰리고 또 연예인 신체 접촉이 한참 예민하니까 헛걸 볼 수도 있지…
난 시큐 입장도 이해감
말로 했다고 해서 사람들이 순순히 물러갈 거란 보장은 없음… https://t.co/5o8hrvBRau— 유후maa (@srq1n) June 24, 2024
“Can’t they just not go to the airport in the first place? Since there’s crowding and celebrities are sensitive about physical contact, it’s possible that the guards mistook things… I get the security guard’s POV. It’s not like if they just use words, people would back off obediently.”

Despite that, many more are still on the side of the victim. They call out the bully-like behavior of many security guards these days.
