NCT Dream bodyguard may be prosecuted after pushing fan

Prosecutors are reviewing whether or not to press charges against a bodyguard for boy band NCT Dream after he pushed a fan, which resulted in her being injured, according to Incheon International Airport Police on Tuesday.

The incident happened on February 20 when the bodyguard, in his 30s, pushed a fan at Incheon International Airport who was at the airport to see NCT Dream return from an overseas event.

As the airport was crowded with the boy band’s fans, the bodyguard allegedly pushed the fan in question, which caused her to hit a wall and break her rib.

The fan, a woman in her 30s, was left with an injury that doctors said took five months to heal. She filed a complaint against the bodyguard to the police.

The case has been sent to the prosecution after a police investigation.
