Moonbin died by suicide on April 19. After his untimely demise, his close friend and ASTRO member Cha Eun-woo returned back to Korea from the US to be with the family in their time of need and pay his last respects to the late K-pop idol. As soon as Eun-woo reached the airport, several photos and videos of his arrival started to circulate online.
In the video, the True Beauty star could be seen making his way out of the airport. He was accompanied by private security and his staffers as he rushed out of the airport. The singer-actor hid his face with a mask and wore baseball cap. As he noticed the paprazzi recording him, he turned his face down. Take a look at the viral video here.

The viral photos and videos of Eun-woo's arrival at the airport upset the fans as they thought the actor's privacy should be respected during this time. A netzien commented, "What is wrong with the people? Shoving your phones in Eunwoo's face like that... If we are feeling this bad as outsiders, he KNEW Moonbin. Let him mourn in peace. This isn't a K-pop op." Another one wrote, "Can't believe they still filed Eun-woo. He must be upset." "I can't believe they are streaming Eunwoo's arrival at the airport. This is so sick," said another social media user.
That flight back for Eunwoo must have been horrible, in fact hell. Idk what thoughts must be going through his mind. I hope people and media understand and give him and the other members their much needed space
