AHOF agency apologizes for baseball game filming controversy

F&F Entertainment has issued a formal apology after AHOF members Steven and Chihen faced backlash for filming during a baseball game. The incident occurred on June 14 at Daegu Samsung Lions Park.

On June 14, AHOF members Steven and Chihen made a special appearance at the game between the Samsung Lions and the SSG Landers. Invited by the Samsung Lions, the pair opened the game with a ceremonial first pitch and hit.

Criticism arose after they were seen filming in the stands with camera flashes on, which some said disrupted players and obstructed spectators' views. The agency addressed the issue directly in its statement.

In the early hours of June 15, F&F Entertainment released an apology. It stated the company failed to consider how the filming could disrupt the game and viewing experience, and pledged to better follow on-site guidelines going forward.

The statement concluded with sincere apologies to players, spectators, and baseball fans affected by the incident.
