It's still weird for me how China fanbase is totally different from common kpop fans

If you look at cpop groups, they do focus more on solo promotions than group work

After lurking in weibo, I was very interested in how c-fans saw members of the same group as rivals. They will try to buy the most albums, the most magazines, etc... They don't like to lose even from each other. I understand if this is about bias but c-fans is different and on the other level. They consider their idols as solo artists rather than idols in a group, they don't even support the group outside of their faves.

Like for example what

so most c-fans are basically akgaes??? interesting

Yes. Nayeon bar usually but 30k-50k albums but for their debut album they bought over 100k albums.

Tzuyu Chinese bar boycotted this cb.

At some time C-blinks especially Jisoo would complain all the time and threatened many times to boycott their cb.

I don’t have the pic but there’s a list with how much solo akgaes bought albums for solo greetings.

They always brag about being the fastest bar to surpass x albums.

I don’t think this is any different than other Kpop fans?

There are many many member fandoms that function the same way. C-fans are just more transparent about it.

i would say other kpop fas are just more hypocrite proclaiming otsomething and what not all the time

maybe it's different to other kpop fandoms maybe it's the same

at the end of the day an album sold is an albums sold regardless of whether it's from an akgae, hater or stan

C-fans are wired differently tho I respect their transparency lol

BP c-bars have lost ton of power since BP stopped accepting their gifts 💀

Some, not all.

Some group's "group bars" far out purchase solo c-bars. I think it depends on the group if the solo bars are stronger then the group bar or vice versa.
