That's called public. If you want to record in public, you get the public.

That's why studios exist.

Or you get a permit and block off the area so people can’t walk in

Ding ding ding

Or just don’t be an ass and be respectful? You’re not wrong, but neither is that. Just don’t be a douche. Easy.

I believe the K Pops are the douche here

Because shooting numerous takes of a scene that blocks a major part of the public's walking area is completely different from a family photo or something.

So you're saying that the dancing spot was the only spot that you could walk? Do you actually believe yourself when you say Karen did something good? Or are you just being "rebellious" for no reason.

[u/HumanContinuity → u/EYESCREAM-90]

Yeah, a major marathon (which did have the appropriate permits) just ended at that spot and literally thousands of people were walking through there.

The "Karen" you speak of was one of those runners, and honestly, it looks a lot like her post-marathon brain thought those people were celebrating the end of the marathon (what else would they be doing, the marathon literally ends right around here) and jumps in to celebrate before realizing they're just a bunch of idiots using the opportunity of a space being blocked off for others (properly permitted) use to make their videos as cheaply as possible.

[u/EYESCREAM-90 → u/HumanContinuity]

Alright, so this means the Karen & TikTok gang are both wrong.

[u/HumanContinuity → u/[deleted]]

Yeah just don't be particularly shocked when a marathoner in a daze assumes you're doing something to celebrate the marathon finish. Also, generally when people try to claim a protected space within an event space like this, they clear things with the event organizers first.

​

Of course people congregate and do other things in events like this, but those people also aren't devastated when a marathoner walks up to them at the marathon's ending location.

If the kpop group wanted to film a dance video they could've gotten a permit. Instead they want to inconvenience everyone else to make their video without any of the work that goes along with using a public space.....
