A recent viral post on the online community Nate Pann has brought attention to the alarming extent of sasaeng fan behavior concerning the boy group RIIZE. The post, which has garnered over 99,000 views as of September 4, 2024, reveals disturbing details about how far some sasaeng fans are going to invade the group’s privacy.
Disturbing Scenes at Airport Sendoffs
The post highlights how the airport sendoffs for RIIZE have become increasingly chaotic. Fans and media alike are aggressively trying to capture photos of the celebrities, leading to uncomfortable and intrusive situations.
RIIZE’s Departure: The group was reportedly mobbed during their departure from South Korea, creating a frenzy of activity around them.
Photographs on the Plane: The most shocking revelation is that sasaeng fans managed to take photographs of the members even while they were on the plane. The close proximity of these photos has unsettled many netizens.
Unsettling Photos Captured
RIIZE members were closely followed and photographed in various locations:
At the Airport: They were surrounded and photographed during their time at immigration.
On the Plane: The photos taken inside the plane have particularly disturbed many, with netizens expressing outrage over the invasion of personal space.
Netizens’ Reactions
The reaction from the online community has been one of shock and criticism:
Some users said:
“The one taken inside the plane is truly insane.
People who take such photos don’t see the idols as humans.
Seeing this, I can understand why male idols are disgusted by their own fans. Managers and security are forced to be extremely sensitive because these people commit crimes like being a nuisance and violating privacy, then turn around and play the victim when restrained. It’s mind-boggling.”
Some other users reminisced about past sasaeng behaviors:
“During TVXQ times, it was legendary how sasaengs picked the lock and broke into their dorms.
Seems like they use privacy screens on their phones now.
It’s so unsettling to see how Sungchan’s eyes are so wide but have no life in them.”
Netizens have criticized the invasive actions of sasaeng fans and expressed dismay over the personal toll it takes on the idols. Some also pointed out the contrast between the behavior of sasaengs and the expectations of privacy.
The Problem of Sasaeng Fans
Sasaeng fans are notorious for their intrusive behavior, often attending overseas schedules to follow the idols. This behavior allows them to take the same flights as the members, making it easier for them to invade the group’s privacy.
The latest incidents involving RIIZE highlight a troubling trend of escalating privacy violations, underscoring the need for better protection for idols from such invasive actions.
