Concerns about the safety of K-pop idols have grown as their popularity has grown. Fans meet in public places like airports to catch a glimpse of their favorite idol.

When these fans crowd around the idol, they can cause traffic jams, which makes it hard for these artists to move.

So, security guards are put in place to make sure that these famous K-pop stars can get away from the crowd safely.

There has, however, been a lot of talk about whether these security guards can use too much force against the fans.

A fan was violently pushed to the ground by BOYNEXTDOOR's bodyguard, which caused a recent dispute.

On the other hand, NCT's Jaehyun is getting praise after a fan shared a video of the star stopping his security guard from pushing his fans.

A fan sent a short video of Jaehyun telling the security guard to stop pushing by waving his hands.

The fan who made the web community post also said, "Just as the bodyguard was about to push the fan, Jaehyun waved his hands and said, 'Don't push.'"

He also always said hello to fans. The poster said, "In the past, Jaehyun also immediately reached his hand out when he saw a fan fall."

Some internet users replied to the community post, "There was a video of him in Apgujeong, and there was a foreign fan who didn't have any manners or a Sasaeng fan who was being rude."

He talked to them in English and was so nice to them.

I believe he was born with good habits," "He always accepts fan letters at the airport," "This compares so much to BOYNEXTDOOR security guard," "His face is so good looking and his actions are so gentle," "I wasn't a fan before, but now I am after watching this video," and "He restored my faith in people."

"I didn't like NCT because of NCTzens, but now I do," and "So many idols don't care if their bodyguards push their fans, but he stops his boss, which is so nice."

Lee Kyung Gyu's star-making influence goes beyond Kang Ho Dong, as Hong Jin Kyung shares how he helped her kickstart her career.

On the April 24 episode of KBS 2TV’s Problem Child in House, legendary comedian Lee Kyung Gyu appeared as a guest—and a touching story from the past was revealed.

Hong Jin Kyung surprised everyone when she said, “He’s the teacher for all of us. Personally, he’s the one who helped me debut.” She even pinned a carnation flower on his chest to show her gratitude.

Lee Kyung Gyu smiled and said, “I still remember when Hong Jin Kyung walked up the stairs onto the stage for the first time.”

Hong Jin Kyung then shared her journey to becoming a star. “I joined a supermodel contest, but only the top 3 winners were noticed in broadcasting. I got a special prize, so I had no chance to be on TV."

She continued, "At first, I was just a backup for a show. But somehow, I became a regular the next week. I never knew why."

She added, "I thought the PD gave me a shot. But then one day, I randomly met Kyung Gyu sunbae, and he told me it was actually him who recommended me.”

Kim Sook asked with a smile, “So Kyung Gyu sunbae said nice things about you to the PD?”

Lee Kyung Gyu playfully replied, “Don’t say it in such a childish way,” making everyone laugh.

He then explained more seriously, “The show was Scoop TV Entertainment, and I was pretty much the main MC. When Jin Kyung showed up, I saw her determination and passion."

He added, "While others didn’t seem serious, she really stood out. I told the PD, ‘She seems unique. Why not keep her on the show?’”

Kim Jong Kook chimed in, “So if the main MC said that, doesn’t that mean you basically got her in?”

That made Lee Kyung Gyu happy. He grinned and replied, “Exactly! You speak well. Be like him!”

He added, “After that, Jin Kyung’s career took off. She started doing shows with Lee Young Ja and just kept going.”

Fans are now calling Lee Kyung Gyu not only a top MC, but also a quiet star-maker behind the scenes!
