In the clip, a voice, presumably a bodyguard, can be heard saying, “Out of the way, out of the way,” and an alleged fan’s hand can be seen reaching out toward the members. Jihoon allegedly uttered, “아이씨…” (“Ahssi”), which is similar to “Ugh,” in response. However, with his tone, this can be considered similar to swearing.

When the video circulated on Weibo, it sparked a heated debate. Some netizens defended the OP (Original Poster) while criticizing the alleged TREASURE member.

  • “Why are they a sasaeng just because this was taken after immigration? What a twisted view.”
  • “Those who say people who take photos after immigration are sasaengs, don’t go reposting fansites’ airport photos. Where do you think the photos get taken?”
  • “Ah, don’t we just treat everyone who follows them after immigration a sasaeng?”
  • “If it were a female idol saying ‘ahssi,’ then you all wouldn’t be so tolerant. You would be the first one to call her Miss Ahssi.”
  • “One must be a bad person to begin with if they’re swearing. His true personality just came out. He doesn’t care, so you don’t have to feel bad about this.”

On the other hand, some speculated that OP could be a sasaeng, hence the idol’s frustration. Netizens pointed out that TREASURE members are known to be kind, loving, and appreciative to their fans, so there must be a good reason for one’s annoyance.

  • “I want to ask the original poster – was running into them after immigration a coincidence, or did you follow them on purpose? Anyone who follows them after immigration is assumed to be a sasaeng. You asked whether you were in the wrong to this extent for following them after immigration, so you know it’s wrong to follow them there. In other words, you did something wrong, but you still want fan service from TREASURE. Do you think they’re pushovers? If you’re stanning them normally, who would say ‘ahssi’ to you? Jihoon has always hated sasaengs, but you chose to annoy him.”
  • “TREASURE gave everyone who waited all day and night at their hotel in Paris an autograph, and even put their hands together and said thank you. But those in Asia deserve to get yelled at just because they took the same flight?”

Recently, the TREASURE members have had increasing encounters with sasaengs. The members have voiced their frustrations to fans via social media.

Even the Korean media has spotlighted concerns regarding airport crowds for the members’ arrivals. Recently, when the members returned home to South Korea, they were mobbed.
