Chinese singer and actor Yu Yuhan, 20, has had enough of obsessive fans, confronting one who repeatedly tried to open his car door. The incident occurred after Yu's vehicle was allegedly followed and surrounded by fans last week.

Video footage circulating online captured several women gathered around Yu's car, filming him through the windows. One woman, identified as a 'sasaeng' fan, allegedly yanked at the car door while the vehicle was still in motion and thrust her phone close to Yu's face. This aggressive behavior appeared to be the final straw for the usually mild-mannered idol.

Following the viral incident, many netizens expressed sympathy for Yu, condemning the fans' actions as crossing a significant line.
