During one such moment, B.I made his way through the crowd, interacting with fans along the way. At one point the idol seems to move closer to a fan to allow them to hug him.
However, during this moment, the fan seemingly took advantage of the close proximity and pressed a kiss to his cheek.

The idol continued his performance, showing just how professional he is.
After the show, clips of this moment were posted online, enraging fans over the sexual harassment he faced.
he may be too generous w fan service for his own good but it’s crazy how some people need to be reminded that kissing a stranger without consent is not normal behavior in any context??? security needs that reminder too https://t.co/SUqYbmChXS

Many were even more-so outraged as B.I has discussed his dislike of having his face touched.
I always say this and perhaps a reminder to all of us: we shouldn't exploit his kindness. While he goes above and beyond with incredible fan service, especially at his concerts, no one should ever feel entitled to invade his boundaries or personal space. 😮💨 The disrespect. Stop… https://t.co/bK3mA0z75v

Hanbin has always been open about how he doesn’t like it when other people touch his face, and some people do this???? https://t.co/2y6a3iTrTb

While getting excited when your favorite stars are up close is understandable, it is important to remember they have boundaries too.
