Huening Bahiyyih of Kep1er recently went on a live stream and recalled when she was stalked and harassed while in Japan.
Huening Bahiyyih is arguably one of the most popular members of Kep1er. Not only did she rank number two on "Girls Planet 999," she is also loved among TXT's fandom as the younger sister of Huening Kai.
With her popularity comes love from fans, but also unwanted attention from creeps.
Kep1er Huening Bahiyyih Harassed in Japan
Huening Bahiyyih recently held a live stream via Kep1er's official Instagram page. During the stream, she recalled a terrifying incident she encountered while shopping.
She revealed that while she was shopping, a stranger was following Huening Bahiyyih everywhere she went. Soon, the stranger approached the Kep1er member and started speaking in Japan.
Huening Bahiyyih did her best to communicate with them, despite not being fluent in Japanese. To her surprise, the person asked Huening Bahiyyih to have a meal with them.
The female idol struggled to escape the situation, as her manager was on another floor. To get the person off her back, she kept trying to say thank you to end their conversation.
In the end, Huening Bahiyyih escaped to the floor where her manager was. When Huening Bahiyyih called for her manager, the stranger finally left the idol alone. It was only then that Huening Bahiyyih realized the person following her was not a fan.
Kep1ans Demand WAKEONE to Protect Huening Bahiyyih
Soon after the story was revealed, fans took to X (formerly Twitter) to trend "WAKEONE PROTECT HIYYIH," as well as "WeLoveYouHiyyih."
Many were disturbed that such a situation occurred, with people believing Huening Bahiyyih should have never been in a place where this could happen to her.
People claim that the fact that the manager was not with Huening Bahiyyih, who is a public figure, is a huge red flag.
In other news, Kep1er's contract is set to expire on July 3, 2024, marking the end of the group's activities after two and a half years. Their most recent release was their first Japanese studio album, "Kep1going," and its lead single, "Straight Line," on April 23.
