RIIZE Anton Followed by 'Sasaeng' Fansites, BRIIZEs Enraged Over Idol's Privacy Breach

On February 11, BRIIZEs voiced out their concerns on X (Twitter) regarding Anton, who was reportedly stalked by "sasaeng" fansites at the airport.

The topic of sasaeng, also known as the term for an obsessive stalker fan, is one of the most recurring discussions in the K-pop community.

Fans find sasaengs to be downright controversial since they're known to barge boundaries that lead to endangerment, compulsive behavior, and even violence. In the case of RIIZE, fans are worried about the group's repeated airport incidents.

These incidents involve mayhem inside the airport due to overwhelming crowds and terrifying mob encounters. In RIIZE's newest situation, fans have called out numerous fansites for stalking the group's youngest member Anton.

According to several posts online, the incident took place at the John F. Kennedy International Airport, where Anton privately departed for a New York schedule. BRIIZEs stated that this getaway was supposed to be a private occasion between Anton and his family.

However, they claimed that three of Anton's major fansites had waited for him at the airport, which led to numerous photos of the idol being posted online. The photos showed Anton's uncomfortable facial expressions.
