Actor Byun Woo Seok Faces Lawsuit from Incheon International Airport Over Security Issues

Incheon International Airport is taking legal action against actor Byun Woo Seok 's security team over a contentious incident on July 12. The airport has filed a lawsuit against the security company, accusing them of overstepping their bounds by blocking entry gates and improperly checking passengers' tickets.

The situation escalated when Byun Woo Seok’s security team caused a stir by flashing lights at fans and reportedly inspecting the passports and boarding passes of other travelers. Although Byun Woo Seok's agency, Varo Entertainment, has apologized and severed ties with the security team, the incident continues to spark controversy.

The police have already interviewed a security guard as a witness and questioned airport personnel last week. The ongoing backlash underscores the public's frustration and highlights the need for clear boundaries in security operations.
