ILLIT Manager Accused of Wearing Covert Camera Glasses, Claims 'Evidence Collection'

Recent reports circulating online about a male manager for girl group ILLIT (아일릿) have sparked heated discussions among Korean netizens. Fans revealed that for about a month, the manager has frequently appeared at airports wearing unusually styled glasses. The distinctive appearance drew attention, prompting fans to investigate further. Online searches suggested that similar glasses are marketed with covert camera and video recording capabilities.

The claims raised concerns, leading a fan to directly confront the manager, asking, "Are those covert camera glasses?" The manager reportedly replied, "They are for collecting evidence," leaving the fan stunned.

Below are translated comments from Korean netizens:

1. ILLIT has mostly female fans, so what is this? Is BELIFT LAB crazy? (A fan who likes ILLIT)
2. Huh..? Really....?
3. ??????? Are they insane?

4. Filming fans is strange, but there are also non-fans at the airport.
5. I've only seen male fans caught wearing those at fan signing events, but a manager too??? How far will this go?
6. Because of those people who follow idols around airports, many ordinary citizens are affected? What should be done?? Who will compensate them??

7. Other ordinary citizens will also be filmed; isn't this a crime?
8. Aren't they crazy? The airport isn't just for fans.
9. If it's a body camera for the manager, it's understandable, but there should be a clear announcement, and aren't there better body cameras than this?

10. There's always something new ;;
11. That thing itself is more like AI glasses than covert camera glasses.. Did he personally say it's for that purpose?????
12. What evidence collection? Crazy.

13. There should be more ordinary citizens at the airport, are they doing this to them too?
14. HYBE (하이브) is especially like this. Wasn't it HYBE that checked underwear before? Now even covert cameras, it's absurd. The airport isn't only for fans.
15. Don't talk nonsense. There aren't that many crazy fans at the airport; ordinary citizens make up 80-90%. Why should they be filmed? Who knows their intentions for using this? Show us the evidence you've collected, you lunatics.

16. It's simply above the law.
17. Could it be that he just wants to secretly watch something himself? ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ How can we believe it's for evidence collection?
18. But can anyone just wear something like that around...?

19. What exactly happened to make them go to such lengths...?
20. How many fans follow a girl group to the airport..
21. Do ILLIT's fans follow them to the point of making them uncomfortable at the airport?

22. But don't people who go to the airport already know they might be filmed?? What covert camera??
23. This is used to blacklist fans who take photos at the airport.
24. The airport isn't just for fans. Who knows who they'll film and how they'll film them, just walking around like that?

25. Why is every piece of news from here so strange?
26. Shouldn't this be reported to the police? They are arbitrarily collecting personal information.
27. Is this understandable? It's a covert camera, isn't it?

28. Are they crazy? If they're going to use that, they should hold up a sign saying, 'Evidence is being collected with camera glasses.' Just like places with CCTVs are marked. Do they think this can be considered evidence??? Isn't this just a photo for media intimidation???
29. No... even if they want to film, they should just use a body camera directly. Covert camera glasses are really;;;;
30. Aren't there more unspecified ordinary citizens at the airport;;;;

31. It's that company again, uniquely treating fans not as people but as trash.
32. What girl group fan body camera ㅋㅋㅋㅋ
33. What evidence do they need to collect to do this? Where will the collected evidence be used?

34. Why does it have to be a covert camera? Why not just film openly?
35. If they film at the airport, they might capture more ordinary people than sasaengs. Was there prior notice?
36. Isn't this a crime? The airport isn't just for fans.

37. Openly filming with a camera and covertly filming are completely different things. Those who say 'they'll be filmed anyway' should just remove their brains, they're useless anyway.
38. What a wonderful way to treat fans.
39. Wouldn't it be better to just film openly with a phone and say, 'You've been blacklisted!'?

40. Those are smart glasses from a collaboration between Ray-Ban and Meta. Anyone can see there's a camera on the glasses, so calling them 'covert camera glasses' is ridiculous.
41. I don't like ordinary citizens being filmed. Those are more like AR glasses than covert camera glasses, right? There are many such products now, called next-generation electronic products. Rather than 'covert camera,' they're clearly smart glasses. Be precise with your words; a single word can change the meaning significantly.
42. If such a device is to be used effectively, shouldn't people be informed that they are being filmed first?

43. Wow, like a criminal, a peeping tom.
44. What evidence are they collecting...?
45. Isn't it a covert camera? No matter what, this can't be right. Where will it be used? To watch from behind and gossip?

46. HYBE has always been like this. They did this during BTS (방탄소년단) era too ㅋㅋㅋ
47. What crime have ordinary airport users committed by being unknowingly filmed? Who can guarantee that person will only use it to collect evidence against fansites who follow idols at the airport? Who can guarantee it won't be used on ILLIT?
48. A gloomy company.

49. Isn't that Meta Ray-Ban? Doesn't it flash or give some indication when it's recording? Early models did.
50. Is HYBE crazy?
51. There are ordinary citizens at the airport too. Will ordinary citizens who dare to follow ILLIT also be blacklisted?? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Will they be blacklisted for taking the same flight?

52. They're practically perverts.
53. HYBE, are you crazy?
54. HYBE is a hotbed of corruption; they really should collapse.

55. Shouldn't this be reported to the police????
56. This is covert filming; they'd be arrested if reported to the police. This company's way of treating fans is terrible.
57. It's only used at the airport, so it seems to be for catching sasaengs, but wouldn't it be better to just film with a camera openly? Why use a covert camera..?

58. Shouldn't something like this be used only after informing others and getting their consent?
59. HYBE seems to think they're the police ㅋㅋㅋ
