30 is not old 
Why do so many kpop fans think 30 is old?
I don't. (Since I'm older...) 
30 is not old
I know 
Some Kpop fans make me feel like I need to start considering Life Alert...
I don't. (Since I'm older...)
I know
I could never say 30 is old when Jae (day6) is almost 30 
Young people in general think 30 is old.
Real life example : A 30-something collegue with wife and children was lecturing a 24-years old collegue about love and how women are at their best when they reach and pass 28 years old.
The 24 years old guy reply was : Those women are already expired.
Conclusion:
it's general mentality of immature youngsters, not limitted to k-pop fans. They change their mind usually when they reach that age.
On a possitive side, the older collegue's opinion was quite interesting.
Edit: I forgot to mention that he said these when a collegue (31 years old woman) was near them. It was quite funny and awkward tbh.
my manager is 29 and he is afraid turning 30 cuz he says 30 is old
If 30 is aged/decrepit, I’m in my coffin, lol.
I know a lot of kids do basically think that! 😂 meh, I don’t care!
Brave Girls Yujeong is going to be 30 and she's as vibrant if not more vibrant than any of the young 4th Gen idols. Brave Girls just had their big break and here's to greater things to come

The thing about turning 30 is that it’s one of those milestones where you start feeling like you’re a real adult and are meant to have your sh*t together, but other than that, it’s not that big of a deal.
everytime they make me feel bad, I am not 30 but I ain't muuuch younger than that LOL
to be fair I don't even consider 45+/- old! maybe because of my taste for older men 
but on a more serious note, I used to feel old around kpop fandom but now I think that some part of them are just very young and when we are very young we tend to see things in a... weird way let's say? but that's not an issue it just happens when we are too young I also used to think many things that were just not it
because 30 is the end of the line for 99.9% of idols. They debut late teens early 20s and rarely make it to a second contract.

You single? 
I wish to everyone to look like this, when they'll reach 30

You see it also with actors, a lot of people have the 30 old mentality.

They look young but not that far from their age. There are a lot of 30 year olds who look like this ngl

So stupid imo,
My aunt looks like 25 and is 45. Some guy asked for her number and said he likes young woman, welll... fortunately she is not a pushover and she put him in check
Most young people don't even think of getting married in their twenties anymore. Thirty is now considered the age of maturity as it is the age at which life and settlement plans begin. People in their thirties are still young.
The idol industry is targeted toward teens and pre teens and they make the vast majority of the fandom. But if you see actors plenty of hit dramas for them after enlisting and coming back. Can’t say the same for idols who return. At best they can become soloists or actors and try to transition away from the idol image.

IKR? I wasn't there when it happened. I heard the story from that woman who was there, however she wasn't mad. She explained that she understands that he is still young and it's normal for him to think such things and she was more amused by the collegues who were looking in panic at her after that guy called older women "expired" in her face xD
My 29 year old self is offended *shakes cane*
30 is not old, not to mention 30 year old idols look younger than some 20 year olds. These are some idols in their 30s for reference.

Cause we're all 13
30 isn’t old, I have the feeling a lot of people having their best years around that age.
I have 6 years to go, but I think I will be a happy person with 30... at least that’s my goal
I think really only young people think that. I remember everyone was calling GD "old" when Dispatch exposed him and Jennie....but he's only 32. You could tell that the people who said that were probably very young and will probably change their mind in their mid-20s or something.
I know alot of people in the entertainment industry were suddenly dropped and not seen as "trendy" once they hit a certain age. Ageism is common around this age too.
This is probably more common with women, look at how everyone was constantly calling Irene "old" but no one bats an eyelid for male idols.
Cs, these kpop fans bunked school when the topic "Life Cycle & stages of life " was being read at school.
Don't drop school, kiddos.
only edgy teenagers call 30 year olds "hags"
they are embarassing
Because most kpop fans are pretty young themselves...teens or early 20s.
Because that's triple the age of kpop fans
A few days ago I saw a bunch of stans from a particular boygroup calling Brave Girls "old" and "hags" on Twitter - despite the boys in their stanned group being in the same age bracket & 2 members being the same age. 🤦
Because the audience is young as well. Kpop idols are marketed as friends/ideal types to primarily young teens so they'd prefer someone closer to their own age.
It's because it's "old" for being in the kpop industry. I mean, if you debut at age 20 you proably will be a bit sick and tired at age 30 and would a "normal life". Also, for girls, at age 30 the time to get a kid if you want children is fast approaching..... So you are not really old at 30, but a bit too old to go on as a member of a kpopgroup.
Lol! 30 is hardly old. I’m 52 and not ancient yet. Perhaps because K pop as well as other endeavours have a limited life span considering when idols would’ve been doing it for probably fifteen years. They’re probably that age too and probably think they’re old at 30. They’re just babies to me.
why ?
cause so many of them are barely 14.
Because it is. The age gap from your kid will be far if you get married in your 30s
