K-pop group Seventeen's Mingyu has urged fans at the airport to follow proper etiquette.
Concerns about the order at airports for not only Seventeen but also idol fans in general have been growing. Around the world, massive crowds gather at airports to catch a glimpse of idols, which can sometimes lead to incidents and accidents.
In particular, while filming is allowed in some areas of the airport, there are also places where filming is restricted, especially for security reasons.
Recently, after completing their overseas schedule, Seventeen was caught on camera filming content for "Youth Over Flowers" at an airport in Europe. On the 24th, while on their way back to Korea from Europe, Mingyu personally asked fans to refrain from filming.
Despite the staff repeatedly notifying fans that filming was not allowed, fans continued to film him. Mingyu pointed to a sign prohibiting filming, requesting fans to stop filming.
On social media, fans praised Mingyu for his request but also criticized some fans for not following the rules.
Meanwhile, Seventeen is gearing up for the release of their 11th mini-album, "Seventeen's Heaven," on October 23. Pledis Entertainment, Seventeen's agency, has heightened expectations, saying, "Seventeen will celebrate their efforts and achievements with fans through this album and paint a new future together, creating a grand festival."
As part of the album's promotion, Pledis Entertainment announced that they will organize "Seventeen Street in Seongsu" from October 4th to 9th in the Seongsu-dong area, featuring exhibition experiences, art walls, collaboration stores, and more. Given that the Seventeen event held in Seoul's Seocho-gu Sebit Island in April attracted a record-breaking 150,000 visitors, it is expected that numerous fans will gather at this event as well.
All eyes are on Seventeen, who reached as high as 2nd place on the Billboard 200 chart with their previous mini-album "FML," to see if they can set new records in the K-pop scene with their upcoming album.
