Overview
- A Black fan posted a TikTok on Friday saying an actor at an AMI show in Paris walked past her and signed other fans' items without making eye contact.
- Users later identified the person in other‑angle videos as Choi Woo‑shik and circulated clips that both appear to show him ignoring the fan and show him signing for other Black attendees.
- Choi posted an English apology on Instagram on Sunday saying, “Sorry if I missed you! I tried to sign as many autographs as I could, but time was just too short.”
- Online reaction remains sharply divided with some critics calling the episode racially insensitive and others arguing that crowded, fast‑paced fashion appearances make missed interactions likely.
- No formal investigation has been reported and the dispute highlights how short, partial videos on social platforms can drive reputational disputes and shape debates about how international fans are treated.
