Byeon Woo Seok’s security team’s “over-the-top” excessive behavior has spread to the point that it negatively impacts the actor.
On July 16, media outlet Tenasia held a phone interview with the security team CEO regarding the situation.
I apologize to Byeon Woo Seok for unintentionally causing him harm. He is an actor with a great personality, and I have unintentionally caused damage. As CEO of the company, I am genuinely sorry.

They also added that they did not confirm the scope of control with his agency beforehand.
Byeon Woo Seok’s agency trusted our company for security, and we did not discuss the boundaries of control with the agency in advance.

They made sure that they would not use the same method the next time they are protecting an artist.
There are many cases where things don’t run as smoothly as expected. If one or two people jump out, others may also join. This happened all in the process of trying to prevent accidents from happening. We will not use the same methods used during the first departure.

Previously, 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 security guard’s fault for having shone the flashlight” and “wished to deeply apologize for making civilians uncomfortable.”
Most recently, although Byeon Woo Seok’s agency issued an official apology online, they still received criticism from netizens.
