Fandom culture continues to become more deranged?

Article: Fandom culture gone wrong

1. [+5,317, -95] You really can't help but be shocked at some of the stories you hear about fans.. or can you even call them fans. Sending period pads to JYJ, breaking into their dorms and taking pictures of them sleeping, kissing them while they're sleeping.. It's pathetic.

2. [+3,934, -56] There needs to be a distance of respect between a fan and a star in order for them to be a source of strength to each other

3. [+3,842, -704] SNSD and EXO are probably the top two groups when it comes to having the worst fans... EXO doesn't do anything wrong but they always get all this hate because of their fans

4. [+2,731, -74] I realized that there was something severely wrong with our country's fandom culture when I saw that even the little kids on 'Dad!' had fanclubs with regular members

5. [+2,309, -36] As always, moderation in everything... there needs to be a line of respect that's drawn and maintained.

6. [+310, -6] Isn't the old TVXQ the most horrifying when it comes to fandom stories ㅋㅋㅋ I'm not even a fan and I'm aware of their stories

7. [+244, -5] Sasaengs are just hopeless

8. [+322, -83] EXO fans are probably the worst when it comes to fandoms gone wrong

9. [+232, -2] Really no other group can compare to TVXQ's sasaengs. I sometimes wonder if they're mentally ill. TVXQ could've easily made so much money if they just sued all of them and took settlement fees.

10. [+214, -6] I remember driving home last year and saw about 70~80 women standing outside a restaurant ㅋㅋㅋ I asked who they were waiting for and it was because Kim Jaejoong was inside ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ I asked my friend and she said he's one of the idols who has the most sasaeng fans. I saw so many women from different countries standing outside with dozens of taxis waiting... I just felt bad for them. Why are there so many kids with nothing better to do in our country ㅋㅋㅋㅋ

11. [+230, -26] EXO's probably the most recent case of fandoms gone wrong. Obsession is not love~ it's craze.

12. [+203, -12] A star only shines because there's a distance between you and it

13. [+187, -3] Reminds me of that one disgusting picture of Xiah Junsu in a restaurant and you see the window in the back and there are little faces all over it...

14. [+175, -4] Even 'Abnormal Summit' Julian says he has sasaeng fans tsk tsk it's honestly embarrassing

15. [+100, -4] Fandom culture started off on the wrong foot. Especially the groups under SM.. you're only accepted as a fan if you take it to obsession level. TVXQ's stories are already famous and I remember seeing EXO Baekhyun's family wedding photo and dozens of fans trespassing and ruining it... I hope one day your own weddings are ruined by people you don't even know. One of my friends works at a duty-free shop at the Incheon Airport and a few SM singers are blacklisted at the stores because sasaengs follow them in and make a mess of everything, even stealing things... Whenever TVXQ's at the airport, stores call each other up and let each other know. Do fans really want to do that to their own artists?
