EXO member Baekhyun has drawn criticism after being caught smoking indoors.

On September 16, a video of Baekhyun smoking inside what appears to be a restaurant started making the rounds on social media platform X.

In the video, Baekhyun is seen sitting in a corner, chatting and smoking. The footage shows him inhaling and exhaling smoke, with what looks like male and female staff members seated with him.

The exact time and location of the video are not confirmed. The person who shared the clip wrote, "EXO's Byun Baekhyun smoking indoors."

Baekhyun has been known to smoke, with past photos showing him with cigarettes during social gatherings.

However, indoor smoking can lead to complaints and fines, as seen with fellow EXO member D.O., who faced a fine for smoking indoors, which resulted in complaints.

Baekhyun’s indoor smoking has stirred up criticism from netizens. Comments include, "Celebrities aren’t above the law," "What about the staff dining with him?" "Smoking in someone's face is crossing the line," and "It’s not surprising given his past behavior."

Former AOA member Kwon Min Ah—who opened up in the past about being bullied—has once again shared a deep and emotional message on social media, leaving fans feeling concerned and sending love.

On April 23, Min Ah took to her Instagram to write:
“I don’t know if I’ve become completely twisted, or if I’m just scared. Maybe I’m afraid the same thing will happen again. Everything feels scary. And I want to say something sharp to myself too—get it together.”

Along with the message, she posted a selfie where she wore a red knit top, had her hair half-up, and showed a soft pout with a calm expression. Though her outfit and style looked casual, the mood of her words felt heavy.

Fans aren’t sure if Min Ah was directing the message toward someone else or simply speaking to herself. The final line, “get it together,” sounds like a tough love reminder to herself—but also makes many wonder what she’s been going through recently.

People quickly filled the comment section with supportive messages, telling her to stay strong and reminding her she’s not alone.

Min Ah debuted with AOA in 2012 and left the group in 2019. In 2020, she made headlines when she revealed that she had been bullied during her time in the group. The confession caused a huge reaction in the K-pop world, leading to conversations about idols’ mental health and group dynamics.

Recently, she surprised fans when it was revealed she began working as a manager at a dermatology clinic, showing a new side of her life outside of the entertainment spotlight.

Fans continue to cheer her on, hoping she finds peace and happiness in whatever path she chooses next.
