A situation involving an SBS employee using informal language and shouting towards Red Velvet's Joy has sparked controversy.

Recently, an online community shared a video of Joy on her way to work at SBS headquarters for the recording of 'Animal Farm.' In the video, Joy was spotted interacting with her fans.

During this interaction, an SBS staff member loudly said, "Please make way," "Please enter quickly," "I told you to enter," and "Step back." Joy appeared uncertain in response and adjusted her movements.

Although it hasn't been confirmed that the employee's remarks were directed at Joy, rumors suggest that both Joy and her fans were taken aback by the staff member's abrupt behavior.

Later, the staff member emerged to explain that their actions were driven by safety concerns and offered an apology. However, a netizen known as A, who was present at the scene, disclosed, "Another security guard later apologized for the previous one's shouting and expressed regret for the incident. We don't know if Joy received the apology."

A went on to elaborate, saying, "That guard requested that I step outside briefly to allow other vehicles to leave. After the cars departed, fans re-entered to take photos with Joy. During this time, Joy approached the fans, and as they entered, the guard told the fans to move aside and urged Joy to enter quickly."

A concluded by stating, "Fans are not upset because they were unable to see Joy. Their disappointment stems from the fact that they came to interact with fans as part of their usual routine but encountered loud shouting and informal language without any explanation."

Online users are expressing diverse viewpoints, such as:

"Even though the security guard might have been worried about safety and had a reason to step in, using rude language is very upsetting."

"If the guard had to clear the way for a car, wouldn't they be responsible if something went wrong?"

"From the sound in the film, it sounds like a car was leaving. Even though I understand why the security guard was upset for a moment because it was their job and the situation could have been dangerous, the yelling was too much."

"The tone used is rather unsettling."

On a separate note, in April, Joy temporarily suspended her activities due to health issues but made her return as an MC for 'TV Animal Farm' in June, a couple of months later.

IU recently revealed that she watched her own concert film in a public theater, but shockingly, no one recognized her—even when she dropped a hint!

On February 27, a new video featuring IU was released, showing her inside a car on her way to Daejeon.

She excitedly shared, “This is a surprise stage greeting for UAENA! I picked this location through a ladder game when I did stage greetings.”

Previously, IU had let fate decide which city she would visit after her stage greetings. She happily said, “There are UAENAs everywhere I go. Wherever I go, it's a flowery path.” The game ultimately led her to Daejeon.

IU originally hoped to explore the city, saying, “I wanted to visit Daejeon's pride, Sung Sim Dang, and walk around, but my team said it wouldn’t be possible. The lines are too long, and it’s freezing outside.” She sighed, adding, “So, things turned out this way.”

Dressed up for the occasion, IU smiled, saying, “I don’t get to meet UAENAs in Daejeon often, so I wanted to make a surprise appearance looking my best.”

She also joked about enjoying surprise events, adding, “As long as Hanteo oppa drives me safely, I’m happy.”

But what really caught fans' attention was IU’s unexpected confession—she had secretly watched her concert film in a theater, but no one noticed her! “No one recognized me at all. There weren’t that many people, and it was a weekday… but still! I even gave a hint!” she said, sounding both amused and surprised.

Later, when IU finally appeared at the theater, her fans were overwhelmed with emotion. Some even burst into tears, prompting her to gently say, “You really didn’t expect me to come, right?”

After wrapping up her stage greeting, IU laughed at herself, saying, “Wait, did I just do a 40-minute one-woman show? I must have talked so much.”

On her way back to Seoul, IU reflected on the day, sharing, “It was so cold today. I shook hands with all the UAENAs. My hands are usually cold, and since the weather was freezing, I think I made a lot of people’s hands cold, too. But after touching so many warm hands, mine became warm, too. I still haven’t washed them.”

Her love for her fans truly knows no bounds!
