K-Pop Idol Eunho Reportedly Kissed Against Will by Fan at Brazil Festival, Sparking Security Concerns
Sao Paulo, Brazil - K-pop idol Eunho, a member of the group YOUNITE, was reportedly subjected to an unsettling incident during the Korea Culture Day Festival in Sao Paulo, Brazil, on August 25, 2025. As the group was departing and interacting with fans, a woman allegedly grabbed Eunho's face and forcefully kissed his cheek. The incident, which occurred rapidly amidst a large crowd, has sparked significant concern among fans and commentators regarding the security protocols for K-pop artists. Eyewitness accounts and video footage circulating online show the moment the woman approached Eunho, leading to a brief but alarming physical interaction. Security personnel quickly intervened to separate the idol from the individual and escort him away from the crowd. The incident has reignited discussions about the safety of K-pop idols, who frequently encounter large, passionate fan bases, often in environments where crowd control can be challenging. "Security for K-pop idols is never taken seriously for whatever reason," stated a commentator in a widely shared video discussing the incident, reflecting a common sentiment among fans. "That place was just way too crowded, and the fans were way too close to the artist." While Eunho's agency has yet to release an official statement, the incident underscores the ongoing challenges in managing fan interactions and ensuring the personal safety of public figures during international events. Fans are calling for stricter security measures to prevent similar occurrences in the future.
