Recently, fans brought attention to an alleged stalker's messages and comments about Red Velvet's Seulgi that have been surfacing on the internet. A particular individual has been commenting on the idol's Instagram posts, describing what her house looks like, what she does when, and how they have waited around it, hoping to see or meet her.

While fans are unsure whether these comments are factual statements or just fragments of the persons' imagination, they've been concerned about how creepy and disturbing these descriptions have been. Additionally, if what the stalker has been commenting is true, the close vicinity with which the person has been around Seulgi not only adds much mental stress and pressure on the idol but also stands as a considerable threat.

Therefore, fans have hoped to raise awareness by trending the issue on X and other social media platforms. Additionally, they've also been demanding that SM Entertainment take some severe action about the same to protect their artist.
