A photo is also being shared, allegedly showing the same fans camping outside a male comfort room to wait for the idols to come out.
The incident quickly became a hot topic, with Korean netizens commenting:
- What is this? It really breaks my heart...
- If it was me, I'd throw an uppercut and there would be a controversy over my personality.
- Leave them alone!
- This is digusting. Let them rest on their vacation.
- They're crazy!!!!
- I feel so bad for Ricky.
- Why would you trap a kid on an escalator when all he wanted was to eat something on a holiday? I understand people are flocking to him because he's a celebrity, but this is still kind of bullshit.
- This is a crime.
- Where are the bodyguards, managers, and staff????
- Seriously, this is heartbreaking. Why did they stick to him like that?
- This is not a schedule but a personal holiday. There are no managers.
- Are they crazy? This is too dangerous.
- There are no guards because it's a chuseok holiday.
