(Anti) FANS
This is a random post. Read it if you want to, or not.
I know I'm like 2 years late on commenting on this, but I got into K Pop late, ok.
So as you all know, in Korea, there is this small thing called the 'Dream Concert' which is held annually. Basically, it's this EPIC concert where all the best idol groups come and perform and is literally, the one concert to go to before you die. (if you are a K Pop fanatic)
Anyways, with concerts come fans and with fans, there's always the antis. You know, THAT group of people who hate your favourite idol group just because they can, and they have no lives. *ahem ahem*

So in 2008, there was this huge fan war between SONEs (SNSD fans) and ELFs (SuJu fans).
The so called 'SONEs' ripped up SuJu's banner and did other despicable things such as threatening them with violence and all that bullshit. The SuJu fans in return, from the second level, threw water at the SONEs. It was quite amazing really. Seriously, it's pathetic. The idols themselves are good friends with each other but it's the fans who hate each others guts. What the fans do reflect on their idols, even though both aren't related to each other. Jealousy and hate never gets you anywhere, so why all the hatin' ?

As a true fan, you should support your idol. I don't care if you hate another idol group. Who gives a flying tuck what you think. If you dislike another idol/group for whatever reason, keep it to yourself and don't insult the fans or the idol. It makes you look like an ignorant a$$h0le who has no life other than to insult and hate.
Personally, I am a SONE. I love SNSD to death. But some of the actions and attitudes of other SONEs make me ashamed to be one. The 2008 incident really highlighted the bad culture of anti fans. The crazy fan boys are NUTS. Why in the world would you threaten someone else's life? That's just going overboard. I know you love your angels but do you really think threats and insults are going to make you a hero?
The answer is no.
Love them from a distance, respect them, treasure them but don't go around threatening other people's lives and making the whole SONEs look bad. You're just giving people more reasons to hate SNSD. SNSD are awesome and we know it and that's enough. We can't change people's opinions about them but we can give them all of our love and support.
On another note, there are some things that bother me about the K Pop world. K Pop is fun and totally different and refreshing but some of the rules and 'cultures' really bother me.
Like, idols can't date.
Pfft. Seriously. I don't mind my idols dating as long as they are happy. Let them be. Let them have fun and enjoy the pleasures of falling in love and being able to the tell the whole world about it instead of having to hide and not being able to do all the normal 'couply' things. I would rather know my idols are dating than being lied to. I think most international fans agree with me as we are not so possessive about our idols. I would like to know who my idols are dating and as a true fan, I would support their decision and hope that they are happy.
Also, fans get jealous too easily. If their idol has kissed someone else, for TV or movie, fans are quick to get angry and say that it's not right.
Dude. Once again. You had NO chance in the first place.
And seriously, fans should have a sense of humour instead of being over protective. In other countries, celebrities are constantly being parodied and made fun of, and people just laugh it off but in Korea, some fans get pissed at the slightest things.
Dude. Chill.
Well, that was just me letting off some steam.
Are you a true fan, or a psycho fanatic?
BYE BYE. :D
