Recently, a netizen posted on the online community, "I'm sitting in the lounge at the airport to travel with my mom and dad. What is the probability that Sunjae (played by Byun Woo-seok) will come in? Wooseok, you're really tall," he posted the video.
The video showed Byun Woo-suk using the lounge at Incheon International Airport. When Byun Woo-seok appeared, lounge users began to recognize him, and some bodyguards shot strong flashes to prevent users from coming closer.
Controversy arose over the 'excessive security' when scenes of bodyguards shining a flash were released even though lounge users did not crowd too much on Byun Woo-seok.
Netizens responded, "If that's the case, why are we going to the lounge with the general public?" They're coming before them. What's a celebrity saying. Take care of the bodyguard.","Celebrities are government officials. Now, I'm doing it. I'm shooting a flash at the public at Prestige Lounge."
As the controversy grew, the head of the security company said in News 1, `It is wrong for the security guards to shine a flash on.' `I would like to deeply apologize as it has made citizens uncomfortable"I apologized." "It is true that there was no situation where we had to protect excessively," he admitted.
"(Byeon Woo-seok's) fandom has increased recently, and due to this, there is a risk of safety accidents, so we are paying a lot of attention."There are people who are not artists' fandom, so I want to protect them thoroughly to prevent accidents, but I'm sorry for this situation." I want to tell you. I will take internal measures to prevent this from happening", he apologized.
Meanwhile, Byun Woo-seok gained huge popularity with the tvN drama 'Sunjae Carrying', which ended in May, and is currently busy with overseas fan tours.
