A viral video of Stray Kids Hyunjin‘s behavior at the airport sparks a wave of backlash from netizens, with some fans defending him.
Stray Kids’ Hyunjin
Back in March, Hyunjin was spotted at the airport ahead of an overseas schedule.
A clip from that video has been going viral, with the idol rolling his eyes and telling fans to be quiet, with the OP describing it as “Hot.”

Yet, in the comments, Hyunjin was hit with a wave of criticism towards his behavior, with some saying he had a big “ego,” and that female idols would have been brutally canceled for the same actions.
there’s nothing worse than a mid talentless man with high ego https://t.co/d9yDtFs5ge

Yet, some defended the video and thought it was cute, while others explained that it was early and Hyunjin was trying to ask fans to be quiet and considerate.
Fanwars aside, I’m concerned for kpop fans. What kind of people do they stan? Because they saw Hyunjin asking his fans not to make noise at 6am, edited the video and crashed out. Isn’t this basic politeness? Do their faves not care about civilians not involved in kpop activities? https://t.co/zE0mjafcKf

Hyunjin was teasing fans told them not to scream so loud so they won’t disturb other people at the airport since it was like 6 a.m. Hyunjin is so lovely, always considerate of others pic.twitter.com/qhF88yqoub https://t.co/njd9fVMcHl
