NCT Jaehyun's Fan Encounter Goes Wrong — Netizens React With Anger
NCT's Jaehyun recently attended the Seoul Jazz Festival, expecting to immerse himself in the music of artists like Lauv. However, what should have been a delightful experience turned into a frustrating one, as netizens expressed their outrage over how fans treated the idol during the event.
Pictures and videos surfaced online showing Jaehyun enjoying the performances, but one particular clip caught the attention of netizens. In the video, Jaehyun appeared surrounded by fans who were more focused on recording him than on appreciating the music on stage, presumed to be Lauv's act.
The incident took a more concerning turn when a fan shared a video of Jaehyun politely asking if they could watch the show together, indicating his discomfort with being constantly filmed instead of being able to enjoy the live performance.
