- She described asking for a Korean-speaking attendant due to limited English, after which the purser and a security officer approached and confirmed there was no problem.
- Soyou alleged a cabin manager later told her to “get out of here” in a harsh tone and that she endured cold treatment throughout the long-haul flight.
- An anonymous online user claiming to be a fellow passenger alleged she appeared intoxicated and said no security was involved, a viral account that remains unverified and was later reported as deleted.
