There is a number of controversy, and understandably so, over the “culture” surrounding Okay-Pop followers making an attempt to work together with and get photos of their favourite idols on the airport. These sorts of conditions can simply turn into chaotic and even harmful when followers get too shut and don’t respect an idol’s private house, particularly when there isn’t correct safety concerned.

There have been numerous situations of idols being mobbed on the airport, some to extra horrifying and harmful levels than others. Yet this has turn into upsettingly normalized for lots of the so-called “fans” that take part on this conduct, which has led to some labels needing to extend their safety in an effort to preserve their idols protected.

Recently, the bodyguards answerable for defending ENHYPEN‘s members went to intense measures to make sure the idols stayed safe, as can be seen in this clip.

Fans are praising their actions and determination to do their job well, while others are demanding that something be done in order to prevent this sort of thing from happening in the first place.

Airports need to start criminally penalizing fansites, stalkers and overzealous fans who show up at airports because none of this is okay. https://t.co/aaZZz8WiKP

This will not be one thing to be normalized. If you will have even a bit of affection of respect and love for the individuals you stan cease participating with airport tradition. You can’t justify getting couple of images after they must be mobbed like this for them. https://t.co/sCcmU1ODuc

But it seems it wasn’t simply ENHYPEN followers that the bodyguards have been holding again. According to the account of an NCT fan on the airport throughout this chaos, members Jaemin, Jeno, and Jisung have been taking the identical flight as ENHYPEN, leading to NCTzens being there too. And subsequently, the bodyguards have been defending NCT as nicely, although that wasn’t what they have been employed for!

하 웃교 오늘 잼젠성이랑 엔하이픈이랑 같은 비행기였는데 엔시티수니들 조용히 엔시티 찍고 있는데 하이브 경호들이 개지랄을 하셔서 엔하이픈 아니고 엔시티팬이라고 하니까 엔시티도 찍지말랜다 https://t.co/OBuqb2jeyW

Caption: “Ha, this is ridiculous. NCT members and ENHYPEN were on the same flight, and NCTzens were quietly filming NCT, but HYBE’s bodyguards were making an issue. We told them we were NCT fans and not ENHYPEN fans, and they told us not to film NCT either.”

In a discussion board publish on the subject, most individuals are on the facet of the bodyguards and supporting their actions in defending each ENHYPEN and NCT. Some are even saying that HYBE Labels ought to ship a invoice to SM Entertainment for the safety!

Though it looks like nobody was harm on this occasion, it could be good to see one thing achieved to forestall followers mobbing idols at airports within the first place.
