Although Mingyu rightly went viral for his unreal aura, netizens also shared clips of concern after a fan was seen inappropriately touching the idol.

During the set, with so many CARATs seeing the group for the first time, it wasn’t surprising that the members wanted to interact as much as possible. In particular, Mingyu got off the stage and walked towards the barricade of the crowds to get closer.

At one point, as Mingyu was at the barricade, fans noticed someone in the crowd reached over and touched the idol’s body, seemingly where his abs are.

Netizens showcased their anger at the person in the audience because Mingyu is often sexualized and many believe netizens take it as a sign that they can do whatever they want, not caring about how inappropriate it is to touch anyone without their consent.

the way being weird towards mingyu online/offline has been so normalized just because he is a good looking person is fuсking disturbing. you dont have the right to touch any human without their consent just because they happen to be a celebrity. mingyu is too nice for some of you https://t.co/QbSU8jbYl3

Mingyu wanted to be close to CARATs, but netizens believed that everyone should be respected and that he didn’t deserve to be touched without his consent when he was doing something nice for the fans.
