Another comment criticized Hyeri's acting abilities and questioned her behavior towards Byeon Woo Seok, stating, "Seeing Hyeri here makes me like her even less. She’s so bad at acting, especially her acting in period dramas. But this is when Hyeri had a boyfriend, why is she all over him? She’s crossing a line."

Netizens reacted to these comments with shock and anger, condemning the aggressive behavior of Byeon Woo Seok's fans towards Hyeri. 

“Hmm, Byeon Woo Seok doesn’t seem to initiate contact with her. He isn’t the type to be touchy feely with just anybody, how cool.”

• “She’s flirting so much, although Woo Seok is cool.”

• “Wasn’t she dating Ryu Jun Yeol when this was filmed? Although I’m sure she isn’t his type, it does feel like he’s drawing a line and being careful around her, lol.”

• “She’s all over him, touching him and leaning on him. It’s a bit much.”

• “She seems to like Byeon Woo Seok a lot.”

While many expressed happiness over the actor's rise in popularity, they called for restraint and respect towards other individuals, including Hyeri.

• “Are they crazy?”

• “There are a lot of cases where I stop liking a celebrity because of their fans.”

• “The fans are going nuts talking $hit about the drama’s leads as well as other celebrities.”

• “You think those fans will leave after the drama ends, right? They actually end up sticking onto the actor for the longest… I can tell you this from experience. I stopped being a fan before they did.”

• “Reading this, you would think they were his girlfriend or something, lol. Saying she’s hitting on him or falling all over him… Who cares?”

• “Please leave Hyeri alone.”

• “Yuck, disgusting.”

• “Why are they like that? I’m glad he’s popular, but why do people like them have to be involved?”

• “I feel bad for the actress. Hyeri, hwaiting.”

The incident highlights the darker side of fandom culture, where aggressive and derogatory comments are directed at public figures. As discussions surrounding the behavior of fans continue to unfold, netizens emphasize the importance of maintaining civility and kindness in online interactions.

Ultimately, the controversy serves as a reminder of the impact of online discourse on public figures and the responsibility of fans to uphold respect and decency in their interactions with others.
