BTS Suga‘s actions towards the media at the airport spark major reactions.
On February 9, BTS returned from their overseas schedule.
As Suga walked through the airport, he had his headphones on and unlike the other members, didn’t interact with the cameras and reporters.
When videos of Suga’s reaction and actions at the airport were shared, they went viral, with netizens sharing happiness that the idol was ignoring the media and cameras.
@gibbynorge Yoongi be like: you’ll only hear from me in cypher pt5😌#bts #suga #yoongi ♬ 2 PHUT HON FUNK – loopgate
@j.h.k.m They deserve this treatment. The press and the toxic army at the airport are the same people who were against him during his accident, and now they’re chasing him like nothing happened, they are the same ones who hated him and wanted him out of the group they’re really very hypocritical🤪 #viral #namjoon #yoongi #fyp #jimin ♬ LET THE WORLD BURN (with G-Eazy & Ari Abdul) – Chris Grey & G-Eazy & Ari Abdul

Yet, many fans pointed out that the narrative of Suga “ignoring” the media shouldn’t be pushed, especially as it is something the idol has always done.
Unpopular opinion but I think we should stop making hit tweets about him ignoring K-Media every time he shows up at the airport. First of all, he always rushed at the airport not to bother others and I wouldn't want antis on Korean side or some of these reporters to mention it. https://t.co/B68knsuEIE
