NCT Mark’s Bodyguard Hit With Fierce Backlash During Fan Sign Event
Recently, a fan sign video went viral after a special interaction between the artist and a fan.
On November 28, NCT DREAM held an offline fan sign event for their “Beat it Up” promotions.
In particular, a video clip of Mark and a fan dancing to the song garnered much attention online.

However, many felt that the security guard’s actions ruined the special moment.

While they tried to fist bump each other after the dance, the guard immediately put his hands between them to avoid any physical contact.


Fans felt that they were going overboard, as it was just a light touch to honor each other’s dance.

하 진짜 ㅈㄴ 흐뭇하게 보고잇는데
말벌아저씨마냥 작은 터치라도 헐레벌쩍 막는 사람 때문에 팍 식음 진짜로 기분 안좋아 https://t.co/aMr3mzXzb3— 옥슈수 (@soheeeeeeE52) November 30, 2025
I was watching this in a good mood, but as soon as I saw the guard immediately reach out to block even the slightest touch, it ruined the entire interaction for me.
아니근데 시발 대체 아티스트가 ㄱㅊ다는데 왜 자꾸 경호원들은 쳐 막아대는거임? 스치면 칼에 베이는거냐? 아니면 스엠이 그렇게 공지를 하는거임?근데 그럼 아티스트에게도 제대로 공지를 해서 아예 사전에 안되는걸로 얘기를 맞추던가 아니 근데 오억내고 가는 팬들한테 그것도 못해줌?걍 막지마 좀 https://t.co/DR4fqSY0OL

Why are the guards blocking him when the artists themselves are ok with it? Will they be cut by a knife if they touch a fan? Or is this how SM trained the guards? Then they should post a notice beforehand to the artists as well, stating that there will be no physical contact. Why can’t they even do a little fistbump after paying thousands to be there? Just stop blocking them!
I know why the security guards are there but Mark has been doing this job for almost 10 years now, he'll let you know if he's not comfortable or not okay with a fistbump from a fan. https://t.co/hvrlrpKmow
