Not surprised.

Do people not understand how dangerous foul balls are? (Speaking as someone who got hit by one at a game — I was watching it the whole time and still couldn't get out of the way.) And that's before we even talk about basic watching etiquette.

I was there yesterday and I'm STILL fuming thinking about it lol. Every single photo and video I took? All of them have those people in the shot. Backs turned, cameras up the whole time, couldn't focus on the game for even a second — and when security came over they'd do the 'oh who me?' act and then go right back to it.

This is your oppa's favorite team and his home stadium. Have some respect. Acting like this isn't just embarrassing — you're dragging his name through the dirt.

Invading other people's seats just to get the shot, standing there causing chaos — there's genuinely no fixing this. The idol can SEE his fans acting like this around him. He knows. At this point either don't come to throw the first pitch at all, or do it and leave immediately.

It's our team's at-bat and everyone around me is doing THAT. How am I supposed to watch the game?????????

Why do idol fans always do this? Their behavior gets their idol absolutely dragged through the mud — and yet this exact pattern repeats across generations of fandoms without changing even slightly.

If they just followed the rules, cheered properly, and stayed to support the team even after their idol left — that would actually boost his image. But it seems like the majority of idol fans who show up to these events genuinely do not care about any of that.

Idol fans doing idol fan things again. Just stop inviting idols. Spring baseball is already massively popular on its own — you don't need the chaos.

Why even invite him at this point... everyone knows what his fans are like. Someone needs to go directly to KBO management and tell them: do not invite this group again. This is not a one-time incident.

Okay, leaving trash behind — I've seen regular baseball fans do that too, so whatever. But standing completely turned away from the field during live play just to photograph the idol? A foul ball will take you out and you won't even see it coming.

To be fair, this isn't just this specific fandom — multiple idol fanbases have incidents at baseball games. There was the indoor bullpen break-in, seat invasions, ignoring security — this is a systemic pattern across K-pop fandoms, not one group.

Just off the top of my head for idol first-pitch incidents: TOERS fans illegally entering the indoor bullpen at Munhak Stadium, a Boys Planet fan literally BITING stadium security at Jamsil while trying to breach the Exciting Seats... and those are just the ones I can remember right now.

Our team takes cheering section violations extremely seriously and security is usually all over it — so the fact that this happened this badly means KIA fans must have shown enormous restraint. The security situation must have been completely overwhelmed.

Sion is genuinely a die-hard fan — you can tell it's real. And his fans don't even consider how this reflects on him. He's the only one who ends up looking bad from all of this.

Propping your feet up on the seat in front of you to get a better camera angle — absolutely disgusting. Please stop.

Please, I'm begging — just have some basic manners. I want to be able to watch Sion throw another first pitch someday...

At this point the idol himself should probably just give up attending games in person. What can you do — it's the price of having fans like that.

A lot of idol fandoms have genuinely been trying harder to self-police lately — but KBO has just as many passionate fans as any fandom, and they won't stay quiet. The fear of their idol getting dragged should be motivation enough... and yet.

Is NCT WISH like the drama-magnet group right now? The controversies just keep stacking up — the 'Sea of Japan' naming issue, the fan disrespect incident, the Japanese Government-General of Korea imagery controversy, the Mega Coffee barista harassment incident, and now the baseball stadium behavior... it never stops.

BLOCKING SIGHTLINES, INVADING SEATS, STANDING UP MID-GAME — all for a photo. Please, for the love of everything, dial it back!!!

KIA Tigers management — if you want to host celebrity guests, please do not seat them in the 3rd base cheering section. The moment KIA goes up to bat and cheering starts, the celebrity appears and suddenly all the 'cannon' lenses spin around backwards, pointing away from the field, and the entire cheering section atmosphere collapses.

I was there today — security was constantly moving through the stands. Even outside the main cheering section, I watched at least one person get removed.
