a literal cult. Somehow you don't have the right to dislike anyone of a group you stan because you have to love them all, I mean worship. When I used to follow some groups I never saw them anything more than classmates or colleagues idk so naturally I'll find some of them insufferable, so I don't get how thousands of fans can't dislike at least one person in a group of 5/9/12 people lol. It doesn't necessarily happen and you don't have to find someone annoying but if someone dared to say it, somehow they'd get accused of being a traitor and a fake fan lmfao. I don't understand this mentality.i also hate and loathe the term you arent a true fan if you havent done bought or owned xyz things from a group so what? i still keep seeing that nonense where people or fans of music define themselves as true fans bc theyre ride or die for the artist and theyll go above and beyond to own anything with their name and face on it. it doesnt prove nothing. theres no more simply listening to a sing and deciding if we like it or not heck ppl cant even merely dislike something or someone without someone else getting offended by it
The thing is if groups only released music and dipped, then you can't really hate anyone beyond their voice, skills or lack thereof. But in kpop you get to ""live"" with these people, they never stop releasing contents about their lives and it's like you live with them and they give you the illusion that you know them personally with their whole personality, whether fabricated or not, for easily influenceable people that is. Parasocial relationship=bad. So for fans, their "idols" are dedicating their lives to their fans, so you saying anything negative about them, even constructive criticism about their mid supbar mediocre skills, then it's blasphem to them.
The best thing is not to interact with them. Some of them are screwed in the head. Adults especially.
