Recently, Korean netizens have been re-evaluating the issue surrounding Byun Woo Seok's use of an extensive private security team.

Past videos have resurfaced, shedding light on why the actor felt compelled to hire a private security team during his recent airport appearance. The videos, which have quickly gone viral, show the actor being swarmed by an overwhelming number of fans, creating a chaotic and potentially dangerous situation.

In the footage, Byun Woo Seok is visibly struggling to make his way through the crowd, with fans pushing and shoving to get closer to him. The lack of adequate security measures from the airport staff exacerbated the situation, leading to concerns for his safety.

Korean netizens commented:

"The fans..."

"Are those really Koreans? People don't act like that these days. Why are they behaving so poorly? The quality of fans has really gone down. Why do they act so embarrassingly as they get older?"

"Honestly, half of them are probably journalists. Why did he choose to arrive publicly when there was already controversy?"

"The drama just had to do well... I only feel sorry for Byun Woo Seok. His obsessive fans are really disgusting."

"Wow, why are they acting like that? No wonder the actor is the one getting all the hate."

"In any fanbase, it quickly turns into a mess when middle-aged women get involved."

"What if we created an airport entrance exclusively for celebrities?"

"I get why he had to hire private security..."
