The crew lost sleep following his orders, and he later joked about it at a fan event.

All the Staff will never forget his order words:
‘The net isn’t tight, I can’t play. Restring it!’

Hold on The people pushing carts and walking back and forth? Those are my office staff. We had to wait for them to finish playing badminton before we could continue working. Worked till morning, booked a hotel just to shower, then went straight back to work without any sleep.😓 pic.twitter.com/HDzaBwTK8Q

Top star A, contrary to his diligent and sincere image, is actually known for being '4D' (eccentric). While gaining popularity overseas, he often calls local guides and other officials even in the early hours of the morning when he is abroad for overseas promotions. Even though he was accompanied by his agency manager, A personally made calls at 2 or 3 AM and openly demanded, "I want to play badminton," and always made sure that his requests were fulfilled. One industry insider remarked, "I don't understand why he keeps calling local officials instead of telling his own manager, it's causing inconvenience."
Let me share a fact: During a fan meeting at Bangkok’s Paragon Dome Concert Hall on 3 March 2014, after all the chairs and event setups had been completed, Kim Soohyun said he wanted to play badminton. So the Thai event coordinator said he would find a nearby badminton court, but Kim Soohyun said he wanted to play badminton at the fan meeting venue due to privacy concerns. As a result, all the arranged chairs and event setups had to be cleared away. The event staff hurriedly made a badminton court with tape, borrowed a net from a nearby badminton court, and installed the badminton court at the venue. Kim Soohyun then played badminton for about an hour before leaving to prepare for the event. Afterward, the event staff had to remove the tape, take down the net, and set up the chairs and refreshments all over again. It's not the fact that he played badminton that's the problem, but if he needed to, he should have told them in advance. Locals widely regarded this as an abuse of his celebrity status. This incident has long been well-known in Thailand but was not widely reported in Korea. There is a lot of evidence for this incident.
-This has been buried all this time? Wow...
-Whoa... He has surprised me so many times now. He's such a disgrace to our country.
-Hul, this is unbelievable.
-There are probably a lot more cases of power abuse that haven’t been exposed yetㅠㅠ...
-Does he think he's a prince? He's acting all high and mighty... What the f*ck.
-Wow, that's a real abuse of power. He's so obnoxious.
-I don’t want to see him again.
-Hul... He's seriously such a nuisance.
-Celebrity images are really just illusions, all created by the media. Journalists must have known the truth all along.
-Whoa... This is legendary......;;; I really the him.
-The staff must have had a hard time. Why didn't he just play at a badminton court if they found one for him...?
-Wow... Truly a national embarrassment.
-He’s really done all sorts of things.
-It's fascinating how this has been buried until now...
-I already hate him, but now I hate him even more.
