Stray kids disrespected at the 2024 Met Gala [Video]

[@hsulaenandar5757]

I have never seen an unethical photographer. Look how Straykids is gentlemanly, ethical, and respectful to everyone. hey Photographer, you can't even stand like them who is still elegant while standing. Do u get it ?????

[@Anibha819]

Aren't they goona take any actions against them?

[@ro-zeea.8734]

​@@Anibha819like what? Fire them? That won't be right either. They have the right to say what they want, with that being said it doesn't mean they don't have consequences. Of what was said. If this photographers are identified by their hiring company and the company deems they have broken some ethical standards in their contract then yes their MIGHT be possibility of them being terminated. However, what usually happens is they'll get called in, get a warning and written up. Majority of this photographers are, contractors so they'll move onto another company that will hire them. They are not the first nor the last. I'm sure it wasn't the first time they have tried to get a reaction from celebrities is just they got caught on video doing so. There's always bad apples in the bunch that give the good ones a bad name.

[@dashqw]

The photographers were acting as if skz were stupid and didn't understand anything. Just like our guys were disabled people or something. This is a huge disrespect. And the saddest thing about this situation is that skz saw that contempt and had to ignore it and be quiet. Chan then sarcastically wrote about it on bubble.

[@sarahomar8351]

This reminded me of when BTS first attended Billboards and kept getting similar comments from photographers and others. I thought that years later it would be better but I guess not. Unfortunately the west is xenophobic and are terrified of any non western artist making it big there since they can't really benefit from/control them. It's the ugly world we live. As an Army I can't tell you that it'll stop but it definitely gets better so brace yourselves Stays, enjoy the journey and focus on the positive aspects only💜

I was soooo mad when I saw this happen. Disgusting behavior, bigots, ignorant fools that don't deserve to be working near people. If you can't show respect, go do something else where you can be alone and miserable. They are an absolute embarrassment to human society. Would they have acted the same way to an American celeb? We should all unite against such hatred. I hope and trust their names will be revealed. Hey, if you have the nerve to act this way, you better be gutsy enough to accept the consequences. I can't stand by such hatred. Kudos to Straykids for staying composed and professional. Don't let such ignorant behavior get to you.

At what point will paparazzi or certain journalists learn that they need to treat people with basic human respect? It's BASICCC. Like be so fr. The things is, they're a kpop group. A very, very famous group. You think it's bout to be sweet after you get done disrespecting people's faves like that? LIVE?? In 4k?? Mic on Boom? Honestly, I usually wouldn't condone it, but like I actually want these guys to be found and pressed into giving an apology? Or even losing their jobs and who knows, never getting to work in their field again until they act right. I don't know, but seeing this really kinda made my blood boil. The blatant ignorance and rudeness is irritating. I didn't even know they were going. My coworker told me a kpop group while we were talking about it, so I was excited and trying to see who it was in the nano second of the clip he was watching, and he's in my ear saying something ignorant and added BTS' in the sentence it, and I'm quick to shut that down and make you feel stupid for even joking about it. And then corrected him by telling him exactly who they were. Mixing every damn group with BTS, no matter their number isn't cute and never will be. It only tells me where your level of maturity is at.
