Fans want him to address the situation directly.
Recently, actor Byeon Woo Seok’s security team received harsh backlash for its “over-the-top” behavior at the airport.
An online video revealed Byeon’s security guard using a flashlight at civilians to prevent them from filming. The video went viral online, with many criticizing the security team’s actions.
The security team CEO quickly admitted that “it was the fault of the security guard for having shone the flashlight” and “wished to deeply apologize for making civilians uncomfortable.”
However, despite the apology, video footage from Dispatch caused even more controversy online.
Most recently, the airport incident was filed with the National Human Rights Commission of Korea for investigation.
Should violations be found, I demand strict measures be taken, including requesting the commencement of an official investigation by the Prosecutor General or the head of the relevant investigative agency under Article 34 (Cooperation between Investigative Agency and Commission) Paragraph 1 of the same Act.
— Complaint filed with the NHRC
