Naturally, one of the people up in arms was Alan Walker himself, took to his own TikTok to address the situation, bemoaning the fact someone would use his merch to commit such a terrible act. The incident has since come to be known to fans as "Alan Biker".
Looking to set things right, Walker flew to Vietnam himself shortly thereafter. When he arrived he visited a local bike store in Hanoi to purchase a new bike and lock, adorned with his signature AW sticker.

He then went to the owner's neighbourhood, where he surprised the owner with the new bike and his appearance!
To cap it off, Walker even recreated the infamous CCTV footage to bring the Alan Biker incident full circle.
