BTS is facing controversy again over chaotic fan behavior at Incheon Airport.
The group arrived on February 9, 2026, and was immediately swarmed by reporters and fans. The crowd went way beyond personal space boundaries.
Phones and cameras flashed non-stop. Bodyguards surrounded each member tightly trying to keep them safe.
Fans pushing and shoving caused serious safety concerns. Many feel this fan mobbing is unacceptable, especially after BTS’s long international flights.

The flight between Lisbon and Seoul is super long, there were so many people waiting for BTS in the airport but Jungkook is always there to bow down, to show respect and gratitude for everyone, fans, media, everyone. Jungkook level of respect is unique!pic.twitter.com/4sYYL5XwCE

Imagine getting mobbed at the airport after a long, exhausting overseas schedule. Being surrounded like that doesn’t sit right with me at all. Let them breathe. Keep your distance. Respect their space. Stop normalizing this behavior. When will people ever learn? pic.twitter.com/mnnU8bqPBc

Absolutely mortified & disappointed with how the “fans” acted at the airport when BTS came home. Cant all those who shoved mobile phone to members faces, forced their way, endangering the members be arrested and jailed for that? Why cant they behave like CIVILIZED DECENT PEOPLE?
