A taxi driver who attempted to overcharge a member of K-pop group TXT has been suspended from operating, after the incident sparked backlash both in South Korea and the Philippines. According to a report aired Monday on JTBC’s “Chief Investigator,” member Soobin was targeted in a taxi fare scam while traveling in Cebu, a popular tourist destination in the Philippines. The incident was originally revealed through the group’s official YouTube channel, where Soobin shared footage of a trip to Cebu with a friend. After arriving at Mactan-Cebu International Airport, the two took a taxi to their accommodation. Before boarding, Soobin had checked that the expected fare was around 300 pesos ($5.30). However, the driver initially demanded 500 pesos, then raised the price mid-ride, claiming fuel costs were high and asking for 1,000 pesos. The driver continued to push for a higher fare, but after a tense exchange, Soobin ultimately agreed to pay 500 pesos — still significantly above the expected price. The video quickly spread online, drawing criticism not only from fans but also from loca
