In the tweet, the victim shared her harrowing experience, stating, “Does HYBE hire gangsters instead of security guards? On the day a HYBE artist was departing on an airplane, the group’s security grabbed my shirt and threw me, so I went to the hospital, and they said I had a fracture.
I’m now in a cast.” The fan accompanied the tweet with a photo of herself in a cast and a hospital diagnosis for authenticity.
Shockingly, the victim revealed that nobody from HYBE’s team checked on her well-being, and she tried to remain silent to avoid negatively impacting BOYNEXTDOOR. Only after about 10 days did a security team member reach out, expressing frustration that she hadn’t reported the incident sooner.
The fan further disclosed that the security guard attempted to shift blame onto her, insinuating the incident was her fault and justifying their actions as necessary for the artist’s protection. This prompted the fan to question HYBE, asking if their security team consistently uses “protecting the artist” as an excuse to harm and injure fans.
Netizens reacted with shock and horror to these revelations, with fans unanimously condemning HYBE and demanding immediate changes to address the disturbing incident. The incident has raised concerns about the safety and accountability of security measures at HYBE-related events.
