• “Was SM always a company that made things into such a big fuss?”
• “What’s the reason behind this over-protection?”
• “They aren’t even BTS or BLACKPINK? I heard this is their second time causing trouble at the airport?”
• “Even if it were BTS or BLACKPINK, they wouldn’t have done that.”
• “So ridiculous.”
• “Are these girls world-class?”

Previously, the group garnered attention after a citizen yelled at the girls at the airport for blocking the way.
