While a necessary part of most idols’ schedules, airport arrivals and departures can be extremely stressful. Hundreds of fans often show up to greet idols, creating sometimes dangerous and scary situations for many there.

Recently, NCT‘s Jaemin dealt with a rough airport arrival that brought up his past feelings on the matter.
In early October, NCT DREAM were one of the many groups to perform at Inkigayo Live in Tokyo on October 3-4.
After completing their performance, the group returned to Korea, arriving at Gimpo Airport on October 5. Their arrival seemed to go well initially.

As Jaemin was walking through the airport, things got a bit rough for a moment as security worked to push fans back.
Just after this, it seemed like things were under control until a fan appeared to grab Jaemin’s shoulder bag, making him turn around. Jaemin then has to readjust the bag on his shoulder.
This incident caught the attention of fans, who could not believe someone would do such a thing to the star.
This is so crazy!
These ppl have crossed the line and this rude action is too dangerous. Jaemin had to raise his arms high to hold his bag, it could have hurt him bcs of the heavy bag and their pulling force.

airport culture has gotten worse than it ever has been over the last few years y’all need to realize idols are people too and shouldn’t have to be hounded like this or feel like they need to go into fight or flight mode when arriving or leaving the airport… sm needs to do better https://t.co/fYvRWvReXE

The discussion also brought up another airport incident that Jaemin directly addressed himself. During the group’s return to Korea after one of their The Dream Show 2: In A Dream concert dates, they were mobbed by fans.

Jaemin took to Dear. U Bubble to scold those involved with what happened.
Can we PLEASE be orderly at the airport? I don’t get why it keeps getting worse…(Oh, and if this message doesn’t apply to you, you can skip it.)
— Jaemin
Fans reflected on these past words in light of the recent incident, urging others to act with respect.
jaemin has told us to keep order at the airport before yet you people can’t even respect that. your selfishness of invading his personal space could result in him & those around you getting harmed. these things just get worse & pulling his bag is too damn far. learn to respect.
