ENHYPEN’s Sunghoon recently faced a terrifying invasion of privacy when a sasaeng (obsessive fan) allegedly paid someone to follow him into his dorm elevator. A viral clip shows Sunghoon stepping inside, seemingly unaware of the stranger. Sensing danger, he chose not to exit on his real floor, waiting for the stalker to leave first. Fans praised his quick thinking, pointing out how he protected his personal space.

ENGENEs (that’s the ENHYPEN fandom name) were angry after discovering that the stalker’s footage was allegedly sold online for 3,000 RMB (about 413 USD). Platforms like TikTok and Weibo have the clip, prompting fears for Sunghoon’s safety. This situation sparked concerns about sasaeng culture again, where some fans take extreme actions to interact with idols.
🚨 Do your job @HYBEOFFICIALtwt @BELIFTLAB . Stalking, illegal filming, and profiting off Sunghoon’s privacy must not be ignored. Take action now!
