STAYC J Disrespected By Entitled 'Fan' At Airport + SWITHs Amused By Idol's 'Sassy' Response

The interaction went viral across social media platforms and online communities.

On June 21, fourth-gen leader STAYC made their appearance at the Gimpo International Airport, in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, where they departed for Japan. SWITHs were delighted to see the girls at the location, as the members took their time waving to the fans and press.

 

However, one moment managed to garner attention from the K-pop community. Various clips online showed members a fan greeting J by saying, "Long time no see, J," causing the idol to wave back.

But the fan didn't seem satisfied with the gesture, causing her to comment, "What's up with that greeting?"

This caused J to be visibly confused with the fan's remark, which the latter reiterated once again to the idol.

Upon hearing the fan's comment again, J returned with a more expressive wave.

Watch the clip below:

@1govvon especially in a setting where manners are extremely normalized is insane #fyp #j #stayc #staycj #kpopfyp #viral #swith #viral #blowthisup #trending #trendingkpop #kpop ♬ original sound - †

Fan: "Long time no see, J."

J: (waves)

Fan: "What's with that greeting?"

J: (confused) "Hmm?"

Fan: "What's with the greeting just now?"

J: (waves back again)

The clip immediately became a hot topic online, as netizens criticized the fan for being an "entitled" individual. The interaction also sparked an online post in a community forum, which contained angered SWITHs.

  • "This was shocking, what's up with that person?"
  • "Why is she like that? Crazy."
  • "Is she insane?"
  • "Gasp, she's not joking?"
  • "What's up with her way of speaking? Is she an iljjin (gang leader/bully)?"
  • "Why is she like that? Who does she think she is?"
  • "It's the fact that she followed her all the way to the airport to do this."
  • "Is she her friend? Why is she like that?"

International SWITHs were enraged by the clip and expressed rage over the fan. Meanwhile, others were amused by J's sassy second wave. Here's how they reacted:

  • "Woke up in the morning, dragged yourself from the bed, brushed your teeth, forced yourself to eat breakfast, drove your car, just to do this! Humans can't be understood."
  • "J should be allowed to slap them with zero consequences."
  • "I love the sarcastic greeting J gave her the second time cause wtf is that entitlement.. it needs to become more acceptable in South Korea for idols to clap back for real."
  • "I love that she continued to give attitude back instead of apologizing. I want idols to start cussing these annoying fans out."
  • "I could never be an idol because I'd start talking back just as crazy. Thank god J didn't apologize and just kept moving."
  • "Some of you chickens have a lot of nerve, do you expect her to give you a 90-degree bow or some s**t? Why are you even at the airport you whole a** weirdo? Entitled jerk."
