K-pop idol filmed illegally in Macau? Fans express outrage on social media

EXO's Baekhyun is facing criticism after a video of him smoking indoors went viral on social media. The video is from his Macau trip where smoking e-cigarettes is prohibited. While his agency has apologised and expressed regret, fans are speculating that the singer was filmed illegally.

Several EXO fans believe that the K-pop star was set up for the indoor smoking scandal. They claimed that Baekhyun had apparently booked the whole floor for a private dinner party during his Macau trip to celebrate his show.

Some of the fans alleged that the restaurant staff invaded the artist's privacy by filming him without permission or his knowledge and then sold the footage to anti-fans. They also questioned the timing of the release of video as it comes on the heels of his solo comeback.

Fans are upset that the idol is being questioned instead of the perpetrators who violated his privacy by filming him.
