From illegally obtaining aviation information to joining without permission... Only idols are in a ”cold sweat” over the endless ”misdemeanor barbarism”

Although idol management offices have been taking strong action against the invasion of privacy, the violent and barbaric behavior of sasaengs (fans who stalk celebrities' private lives) continues.
On the 5th, a Korean media outlet reported that the Korean boy band ENHYPEN had been subjected to sasaeng harassment. According to the report, ENHYPEN's sasaeng
They illegally obtained the airline ticket information of the members and signed up with the airline without permission. This allowed the members to be assigned seats at will, and the sasaengs were forced to sit in the seats they wanted.
On the 4th, ENHYPEN tried to change to another flight to return to Korea from China, but in the process, the seat assignment was not available.
It was confirmed that this was possible. However, because the sasaengs had already registered their contact details with Chinese numbers, they ended up having to go through personal identification at the airport in China and then have their seats changed.
In response, ENHYPEN's management office BELIFT LAB said, "We are taking strong action against the illegal acquisition and sale of airline ticket information, and will do our best to protect our artists.
" K-pop idols have long been victimized by "sasaengs" who wear the guise of fans and make a living by violating their privacy.
When an idol complains about stalking, such as unauthorized entry into her dorm and delivery of threatening items, the situation gradually escalates to the theft of her number and illegal trading of her personal information, and the scale of the damage is growing.
Amidst all of this, the biggest problem that has recently come to the forefront is the illegal trading of airline tickets, with idols illegally trading their flight information on social media becoming rampant, and some idols even speaking out about the damage it has caused.
Tae Hyeong of the boy group "TOMORROW X TOGETHER (TXT)" said, "Someone reserved and replaced the in-flight meals for the members in advance.
"It would be nice if they could do that, but I just can't understand why they would do that, or how the system works so that they can change other people's stuff."
HYBE has also begun to take action. In June of this year, HYBE said, "We formed a separate task force last year to deal with the illegal trading of K-pop artists' airline ticket information."
"After checking numerous SNS accounts online that were trading airline ticket information for artists, we secured evidence that could identify the operator and will submit it to the police," the statement said.
HYBE has also requested cooperation from airlines and travel agencies to prevent further leaks of personal information. Despite ongoing legal action against sasaengs,
As these cases continue to occur, there are growing calls for strong punishment for the barbaric behavior of sasaengs.
