Obsession around idols and leaving the Kpop fandom
I’ve had it with the majority of the K-Pop fandom. I don’t know how I’ve managed to be a fan for so long.
Response to AKP [OP-ED]: AIRPORTS ARE NOT CONCERT VENUES
I’m not one to read Allkpop news anymore but recently contagion, a AKP writer posted this editioral article relating to airport experiences which I came across through omona. The article summaries how fans get too crazy and should behave in a proper manner when they go to the airport.

Examples of Fanwar responses
This is what I saved a while ago about what an allkpop regular said about fans so I thought I’d post it and hear your thoughts.

Express my views #2 – Fans
It’s been a little over two months since I did an Express my views post. Fans all over the world, not just in J-Pop or K-Pop can be defined in many ways. But really, from what I’ve found out, and this is the perfect defining of a fanboy or fangirl:
“A female or male, usually between the ages of 12 and 19, that is obsessed with a particular real-life idol or celebrity in the J-Pop or K-Pop World. Avoid fanboys/girls in large groups, as they do tend to swarm, and if you are unlucky enough to catch them near their object of admiration, cover your ears. They have a batlike shriek that can be heard from several blocks away to alert even more fanboys/girls. All jailbaits and J-Pop/K-Pop idols under 25 beware.”
The way I see it, there are four kinds of fans: Admirable, Hardcore, International and Obsessive.
