Currently midway through their CHOOM WORLD TOUR, the BABYMONSTER members recently departed Seoul for their concert in Manila, Philippines, on September 5th. Excitement was dampened, however, when fans noticed a graphic threat made on the group’s Weverse channel.

In the post, the user claimed that they would be waiting to attack Ahyeon and “stab” her to death upon her upcoming return from Manila, naming “shipping” drama as their reasoning.

While malicious comments aren’t rare in K-Pop, numerous fans have argued that the specificity of the threat should not be ignored. Now, they’re urging YG Entertainment not to dismiss the post as harmless trolling given the potential risk and demanding that the company take action to protect both Ahyeon and the remaining BABYMONSTER members.

We strongly condemn the violent threats directed at AHYEON. This is a serious matter concerning her safety and should not be treated as fan conflict.

The agency has yet to make any statement, but this is not the first time fans have slammed YG Entertainment for failing to protect Ahyeon this year. Back in June, the company was also accused of sexualizing the 19-year-old idol and intentionally using her to create controversy.
