According to the Kyunghyang Shinmun on the 29th, the Incheon International Airport Police Corps will soon summon and investigate an employee of a security company who protected Byun Woo-seok and caused damage to passengers at Incheon International Airport.
Police classified three of the six private bodyguards deployed around Byun Woo-seok as subjects of investigation (internal investigation) before being booked, and investigated one employee of the security company as a reference on the 24th.
However, as Incheon International Airport Corporation filed a direct complaint against the security company employees on the 25th, it turned from an internal investigation to an investigation.
Employees of a security company that caused inconvenience to passengers at Incheon International Airport are booked as suspects.
A police official said, `If the complainant is investigated soon, the security company employees will be booked as suspects"The security company has also appointed a lawyer to coordinate the investigation schedule," he added.
Earlier, Byun Woo-suk left for Hong Kong for a fan meeting tour in Asia on the 12th. In the process, bodyguards from private companies were embroiled in controversy for overprotecting them.
At that time, the security company provided excessive security, such as controlling the airport gate for 10 minutes and shooting strong flashes at ordinary passengers trying to use the airport lounge to prevent crowds from flocking.
In addition, witnesses said they inspected passengers' tickets. In response, Incheon International Airport said "The private security company's conduct of inspecting tickets in the lounge was not discussed with the airport security."`Even the airport security has no right to inspect passengers' identification or flight tickets indiscriminately.'
On the 15th, Byun Woo-seok's agency Baro Entertainment requested that the company stop acting after recognizing the behavior of the bodyguard who flashed a flash at the airport's passengers"We were unable to recognize the gate, flight tickets, and detailed security situation on the site, but we feel moral responsibility for all unsavory matters in the course of carrying out security, and we bow down and apologize to the users who felt uncomfortable."
Later on the 16th, Byun Woo-suk returned home through Incheon International Airport after completing the Asian Fan Meeting Tour '2024 Asian Fan Meeting Tour Summer Letter' held in Hong Kong.
At that time, Byun Woo-seok appeared at the arrival hall with his bodyguards cut in half as if he were conscious of the controversy over excessive security last time.
As a result, fans began to get closer to Byun Woo-seok, and a dizzying situation occurred. There was also a falling situation among some fans.
Some raised concerns that appropriate security was needed.
