SEVENTEEN’s Dino faced a dangerous moment while enjoying leisure time with his family in Hong Kong. The incident even put the idol’s mother’s safety at risk. The chaotic fan mob occurred while Dino’s group, SEVENTEEN, was in Hong Kong to kick off the Asian leg of their New World Tour.
Chaotic fan mob left Dino visibly distressed
The dangerous moment occurred as some fans spotted Dino walking with his mother on the streets of Hong Kong. The situation worsened as more fans gathered around the idol, and at one point, he got separated from his mother. Pictures taken by fans show Dino panicking and trying to reach out to his mother as cameras continued to film him from all sides.
Fans react strongly on social media
The incident sparked an uproar among fans on social media with CARATs (SEVENTEEN fans) calling out fellow admirers not only for invading Dino’s privacy but also for putting him in such a stressful situation. One fan wrote on X, “what happened with dino is actually so gross, yall need to learn what personal space is and LEAVE HIM ** ALONE.”
Another uncomfortable moment with SEVENTEEN idol
Meanwhile, a few weeks ago, yet another inappropriate incident involving a SEVENTEEN member sparked heated discussion about the need for strict fan etiquette. The incident took place with Mingyu in Busan. During the concert, Mingyu walked offstage to get closer to fans, who could see him up close from the barricade. When the idol walked past, fans reached out to touch his hands, and many also grabbed his arms and chest. Another video of this showed the idol’s response right after, and he later stated that fans shouldn’t grab them like that. Fans have expressed outrage over Mingyu’s treatment, scolding those attempting to make excuses for the sexual harassment.
