There have been many times when idols got treated badly by the reporters, making fans outraged.
Up until now, the relationship between entertainment companies, K-pop idols and the media has always been good. However, there were many times when idols got treated disrespectfully, they even got scolded which made the fans really angry.
Recently, the “global group” BTS had a schedule to go to Las Vegas (USA) to attend the Grammy Awards and continue to hold the next 4 concerts. Appearing at the airport, the members made fans extremely excited with their gorgeous outfits and flashing aura.
However, at that time, a female reporter was being discriminating to some of BTS members. Specifically, this person told her colleague: “Just focus on Jimin, Jin and V. Don’t care about the rest.” Jungkook and j-hope did not appear due to health problems.
The female reporter’s behavior made BTS fans extremely angry. With BTS‘s position in Korea and all over the world, fans are outraged that the members are discriminated against in their homeland. They even came up with a question wondering how the reports will behave to less popular idols.
Opposite to the situation of BTS, Jennie used to be brutally hunted by reporters. After finishing her schedule in Los Angeles (USA) and returning to Korea, when appearing at the airport, Jennie immediately got the attention of the press.
Jennie got attacked by tons of cameras, leaving her with no choice rather than covering her face with her shirt while trying to get out of that crowd. The disrespectful action of the reporters at the airport had been strongly criticized by the fans.
At the Gaon Chart Music Award 2022, Red Velvet showed up in beautiful white dresses. However, due to the epidemic in Korea, SM’s beauties gave signals to the reporters that they wouldn’t take off their masks for photos.
Netizens praised Red Velvet members’ reactions as they crossed their arms to politely ask reporters to stop asking them to remove their masks. Leader Irene continued to do this and signaled to the members to keep their masks on.
Although Red Velvet was being respectful and serious about wearing masks to protect the health of everybody, reporters still insisted on telling them to do the opposite for good pictures. Some rude reporters even shouted at the members’ faces, causing them to eventually give in.
