StayC J Disrespected By Entitled ‘Fan’ At Airport + SWITHs Amused Over Idol’s ‘Sassy’ Response

The engagement quickly spread through social media channels and virtual groups.

On June 21, STAYC, the fourth-generation leaders, were seen at the Gimpo International Airport in Gangseo-gu, Seoul, as they departed for Japan. SWITHs were ecstatic to catch a glimpse of the girls and the members graciously waved to their fans and the press.

Despite this, there was one particular moment that caught the attention of the K-pop community. Multiple online videos depicted a fan greeting J with the words, “It’s been a while, J,“resulting in the idol waving back in response.

Despite the gesture, the fan appeared dissatisfied and questioned, “What’s the meaning behind that greeting?

J became visibly confused by the fan’s remark, which the latter reiterated once more to the idol.

After once again hearing the comment from the fan, J responded with a more animated wave.

View the video clip below:

Fan: “Long time no see, J.”

J: (waves)

Fan: “What’s with that greeting?”

J: (confused) “Hmm?”

Fan: “What’s with the greeting just now?”

J: (waves back again)

The video quickly sparked controversy on the internet, with many netizens condemning the fan’s entitled behavior. The incident also prompted a heated discussion among SWITHs on a community forum post.

  • “This was shocking, what’s up with that person?”
  • “Why is she like that? Crazy.”
  • “Is she insane?”
  • “Gasp, she’s not joking?”
  • “What’s up with her way of speaking? Is she an iljjin (gang leader/bully)?”
  • “Why is she like that? Who does she think she is?”
  • “It’s the fact that she followed her all the way to the airport to do this.”
  • “Is she her friend? Why is she like that?”

The video clip sparked anger among international SWITHs, who expressed their dismay towards the fan. However, some found J’s sassy comeback amusing. Here’s a look at their reactions:

  • “Woke up in the morning, dragged yourself from the bed, brushed your teeth, forced yourself to eat breakfast, drove your car, just to do this! Humans can’t be understood.”
  • “J should be allowed to slap them with zero consequences.”
  • “I love the sarcastic greeting J gave her the second time cause wtf is that entitlement.. it needs to become more acceptable in South Korea for idols to clap back for real.”
  • “I love that she continued to give attitude back instead of apologizing. I want idols to start cussing these annoying fans out.”
  • “I could never be an idol because I’d start talking back just as crazy. Thank god J didn’t apologize and just kept moving.”
  • “Some of you chickens have a lot of nerve, do you expect her to give you a 90-degree bow or some s**t? Why are you even at the airport you whole a** weirdo? Entitled jerk.”
