Samantha Ko slammed for putting feet up on airport seat

14 Oct – Samantha Ko recently found herself clarifying herself to netizens who seemed to find everything wrong with a recent photo she shared on Instagram.

As reported on Mingpao, the TVB actress recently posted a photo of her sitting down on an airport seat at Kuala Lumpur International Airport with her two feet on one of the chairs. Several netizens who saw the photo slammed her for the behaviour, saying that she was being disrespectful.

Some also left comments saying that she lacked etiquettes, while others reminded her to wipe the seat clean and not dirty the seats with her shoes.

Soon after, others accused Samantha of deleting those comments from her post and blocked them as well.

In response, the actress shared another photo of herself, she said that she is not the old Samantha who would make sure to behave properly just to win people's approval rather than live happily for herself.

"As of today, I have accepted that you can't please everybody in the world. It's better to just be yourself," she wrote, adding that she only blocked those who would open multiple accounts just to attack her on social media.

However, some netizens expressed doubt that her bashers were all the same person, to which she responded, "I am not saying every [basher] was a fake account, just that there is a person who keeps opening fake accounts to start something recently. I have always chosen to delete it because there is no reason to start a debate about it."

She also stressed that she had wiped the seats after taking the said photo and even sat down on it afterwards.

"There is no need to be angry. I also came from a family with good upbringing," she added.
