Netizens Raise Concerns After Recent Clip Of fromis_9 Raises Showcases The Dangers Of HYBE’s Flawed Security System
본문
When it comes to some of the most famous and successful K-Pop companies, many have always counted HYBE as one of the best, even though they haven’t been counted in the “Big 3.” With artists such as BTS, TXT, SEVENTEEN, LE SSERAFIM, and many more, it has cemented its influence in the K-Pop world.
Yet, it seems like one part of HYBE has come under fire and that’s the security.
In 2020, it was announced that BigHit Entertainment (now known as HYBE) had become the largest shareholder of SEVENTEEN’s company Pledis Entertainment.
On several occasions, member Jeonghan has expressed that one of the things he hates most about the building is the “Strict security.”
We’re really strict about security. You need to take off your mask and check your body temperature and recognize your face to open the door. But it didn’t open!

The idol explained that he kept having the same issues and that he didn’t understand why HYBE had so much tight and complicated security.
I just don’t understand why we have to go through so many face recognitions! I’ve complained about this a number of times, but it’s still the same.

At first, many netizens found the frustrations cute. But it has recently become a hot topic again and gained more concerned reactions from fans worldwide for the safety of HYBE idols.
Another group that has joined HYBE is fromis_9. Like SEVENTEEN, they are now utilizing the HYBE building. In a recent video, HYBE turned into a ghost building. The members had to try and escape after completing various challenges.
Throughout the video, the members had to complete tasks. At one point, one of the teams made it to the exit and they wanted to get rid of the ghosts from the building.

It seemed as if the members couldn’t even use the system to contact anyone and they didn’t have their phones due to the challenge. Luckily, a staff member passed by the doors while the members were there to let them out.

Although it might have seemed funny at first, many netizens raised concerns about the long-term impact of a security issue.
The strict measures were put in place to stop any unwanted visitors entering the building. Yet, if there was an emergency inside HYBE, it would also stop the artists and staff getting out which could be dangerous.
HYBE has taken huge steps to ensure the safety of their artists. However, the flaws in the system are too serious to ignore for many netizens. If idols are working late and need to leave when the building is empty, the security flaws could cause major issues.
