Hearts2Hearts, SM Entertainment‘s newest girl group, recently appeared at Incheon Airport to fly to Hangzhou for one of their offline fan signings.

The fan is seemingly holding a camera as the alleged bodyguard rounds his arm around her neck and shoves her away from the train doors. After he pushes her, he turns to her and shoves her again.

The video has sparked massive outrage among Korean netizens. A post on TheQoo about it has gone viral, garnering more than 50,000 views and thousands of infuriated comments. Many have labelled the violent incident as assault and have urged the fan to sue.

  • “If you’re a misogynistic man who wants to hit women, just get a job at SM. They make more of a scene than the president.”
  • “Is he insane?”
  • “They need to sue for that.”
  • “Isn’t this just crazy..?”
  • “Why does this keep happening and never get fixed?”
  • “He must be out of his mind.”
  • “They seriously need to press charges for that… Is that the same bodyguard who knocked down that female fan before?”
  • “He only acts like that toward women. But when an older man curses at him, he doesn’t even flinch.”

Others have claimed that even if the fan was a sasaeng, the level of violence is not appropriate.

  • “That’s assault. Do they think they own the airport or something? Even if she was a sasaeng, choking and shoving someone like that is unbelievable.”
  • “The idol industry is basically a lawless zone where a man can beat a woman in broad daylight at an airport without hesitation. Fans are so obsessed they defend it, so it keeps happening — and the rest of us women watching just feel like our human rights are being dragged through the mud.”
  • “Has he lost his mind..???”
  • “There’s even footage of a citizen cursing them out for blocking the path at the airport… what is SM even doing?”
  • “They always blame the female fans, but they never act like this toward those male fans with cameras who swarm idols like bugs. It’s laughable.”
  • “There weren’t even that many people around, and for that level of chaos, the airport was actually relatively calm. But they go completely nuts and turn it into an assault. Insane.”
