We’ve seen our fair share of stars getting mobbed and harassed by overzealous fans, and it looks like Chinese idol Yu Yuhan has had enough.
The 20-year-old was caught on camera lashing out at a female “sasaeng” – an obsessive fan who invades a celebrity’s private life – after his car was allegedly followed and surrounded last week.
Footage circulating online showed several women gathered around his vehicle and filming through the windows.
One woman allegedly repeatedly yanked at the car door while the vehicle was still moving and shoved her phone close to Yu’s face to film him.
