1. [+721, -26] There is no age restriction when it comes to stupid fangirls
- I honestly think it becomes an addiction at that point
- I think people continue fangirling into their twenties when they're sensitive to changing and growing out of their teen environments and have low self esteem.
- I don't want to hate on fangirls as long as they don't harm anyone like sasaengs but once they start acting not mature enough for their age, it starts to look pathetic. If you're in your twenties, you're mature enough to be working in society but some are still stuck worrying themselves over which idol is dating who and delusion themselves into thinking they can date an idol too. I see some women like that around me and I have nothing against them but it's just.. pathetic.

2. [+593, -5] Well people in their twenties now grew up listening to and liking dance music and idols in their teens, why would you expect their tastes to suddenly change just because they grew older? ㅋㅋ

3. [+476, -6] It's the same group of teens who liked idol music who grew up into their twenties still liking that music.

4. [+284, -8] Companies normally aim to target customers from late teens to late twenties because that's when they spend the most money.

5. [+47, -5] Is it because the teens who grew up during the golden idol age are now in their twenties?

6. [+41, -4] So what.. I don't think it's just the dance genre but music in general that people in their twenties listen to the most

7. [+33, -1] What the stats are trying to say is that idol fans aren't restricted to people in their teens and that a lot of women in their twenties are idol fans as well. People are always ragging on fangirls about being teens and stealing money from their parents to fund their idols but as it turns out, there are a lot of college students and workers in it too.

8. [+41, -10] Well the teen idol fans grew up into their twenties now so of course the results reflect that

9. [+27, -0] I think the stats are skewed. People in their twenties have more money to spend and pay to stream music so of course their population is going to be reflected in higher numbers compared to teens who don't.

10. [+18, -1] There is no age restriction on music genres. You listen to what you want. And obviously people in their twenties will have more time and money to buy music compared to teens..

11. [+21, -5] There are a lot of EXO fangirls in their twenties. My nuna's 24 and she's a Chen fangirl.

12. [+14, -0] Do you not realize that the teens during the first generation of idols are now in their thirties, the teens during the second generation of idols are now in their twenties? ㅋㅋ Of course the connection is relevant... and teens also don't have the money to stream songs. I bet numbers for people in their twenties will be higher across all genres, not just dance.
